Virtues... Virtues...

Yeah.. it has been a long time... Med life.. is really something...

Been a pretty disappointing 2nd Shifting for me... i failed BioChem exam.. and I'll be taking the remedials for sure.. Neuro ana... really caught me off guard... I studied well.. and yet i still failed... saw my class standing for Ethics.. and i need 3 points to pass... hope i pass this shifting.. or else i'll be taking remedials on the 23rd... this is so... disappointing...

Yes.. the title is about virtues.. And i know.. i'm failing bioethics.. But it doesnt mean that i dont learn anything from it... as far as i can say.. it really helps a lot now.. that i'm facing these trials.. These virtues that i need to live by being a medical student..

Persevere.. Courage.. Optimism.. Integrity.. and of course Joy :D and the most important Prayerfulness

Persevering despite these failing grades.. Courage in facing difficult terms, facts, etc.. Optimism that I will pass :D And yes i'm still enjoying! :D new knowledge feeing my thirst for it

although there are times when i think of quitting.. one of my friend is almost quitting because of the pressure of medicine life, getting low grades, etc.. different factors come to play and yes I too sometimes is on leaning to the path of quitting..

But there's this one thing that always stops me from thinking of it.. I think it's because I still have this passion burning inside of me "I want to be a doctor!" And i hope it stays burning until the end ;)

Oh yes, there's this one chinese song that i'm listening to.. title is 信仰 (Believing) by 王宏恩. the part of the song 我不知道要怎麼走 (親愛的孩子你有你的方向)狩獵為何不能活 (親愛的孩子山林給你力量)沒有你到地怎麼過 (親愛的孩子信仰給你希望).

The two bolded parts are my favorite. "I don't know where to go (my dear child, you have your path) Without you, how will i go through this (my dear child, believing will give you hope)" And my path is to be a doctor, and believing that I can and will go through that hard path is giving me the strength and hope that I will reach it someday...
