changed my blog skin again..=)
its cute..
abit childish... but... cute nontheless.. and it makes me happy.
so there.
loving clinics at the moment
the more i do neuro.. the more i like it.. and the more i think i'm definately going down this specialisation..
the patients are so incredibly complex and funny.. they keep me SO entertained.
like the movie 50 first dates..
i introduce myself to my patient.. lets call him Mr X like.. 5 times in a session..
and he keeps forgetting my name..
or the lady that tells me about her shoulder injection 8 times in 1/2 an hour.. repeating exactly the same thing.. it would sound really funny.. if it wasn't so sad, cos of their short term memory losses because of brain damage (due to car accidents..)
and i met the most funny Greek guy.. elderly.. who was watching his sister do physio..
and like in the movie " My Big Fat Greek Wedding" where the dad was explaining how everything in the world originated frm the greeks..
my elderly guy was happily proclaiming the virtues and great history of the greeks..
"You see! Mathematics.. Greek!
the stars and space.. Greek!
and the americans who put the shuttle into space.. Greek idea too!"
don't ask me how though..
but i found the conversation so hilarious.. it was as if it was straight out of the movie..
and learning all these greeks words..
like proper greek.
its cool
i can speak greek now. haha
and a smattering of italian.
Oh. and had to help with a contonese elderly lady's conversation
man that was
hard. and so funny.." what colour do u want our walking frame in? red, green or blue?"
i took 10 mins to try to get her to understand in my extremely limited cantonese..
while she was telling me in cantonese "
I don't understand" and i was telling her"
I don't speak cantonese" that was the only part of the conversation that was absolutely clear. Oh dear.
Holidays in 1 week.
i can't wait!!!
