It's Friday, and the weekend is coming and with it being April Fool's day I left home feeling very happy and excited for unknown reasons. By the way, yesterday during my operative surgery class, we had hands on experience creating an side to side anastomosis of the intestines but due to inadequate time, we were going to finish it today.
We started the class by crapping some jokes with our teacher whom was quite stern with us during the 1st semester but is now very friendly with us. After that, we started out discussion and then we continued with out practical skills training (creating a side to side intesinal anastomosis)
After learning our lessons from yesterday (although we wore glooves while working with the God knows how long that intestine was soaked in formaline intestine, our hands still stink from the contact with the intestines), today, we tried to limit our contact with the intestine and made full use of the surgical equipments.
After completely finishing the practical skills we asked teacher to check how my group did our anastomosis( we were divided into 2 groups and worked with one intestine for each group) by injecting water into the part of intestine which we created an anastomosis and check for water leakage( the leakage of water indicates that we did not do our so called operation correctly) since we might have an exam of the same kind of Monday if we are not doing our 1st hands on experience on a LIVE ANIMAL (rabbit).
The result was a small part of the intestine which my group worked on had some leakage of water and we were kinda disappointed with it. Seeing our faces, our teacher said that we did a relatively good job as it was our first time doing it and hence she usually does not check the results in the student's first trial and agreed to check ours only after we had asked her to do so.
We were then dismissed after we had finish our "operation", packed up and head home for a quick lunch before heading off for volleyball training.
While training our practical skills and doing suturings and incisions today, I felt that I was enjoying what I was doing. I guess, a surgeon is really what I want to become in the future. Hopefully, my dreams will come true!!
Oh yeah, I will also be attaching a photo of me before and after my hair cut that I got on the day before with the help of my friend.
wah...april's fool
