Something to remember

Today marks the end of my anatomy practical lesson. 3 semesters flew by in a blink of the eye. Anatomy practical would be a thing of the past. It has become a memory, one that is deeply embedded into me.

Theoretically, I should indeed be elated that the anatomical component of my medical course has finally come to an end. Ironically, feelings of sorrow and bitterness exude from within should any anatomy related thoughts surfaced in my mind. Anatomy lessons would be greatly missed indeed.

Reminiscing the past is something that I find irresistible. It seems like yesterday when I first held the surgical instruments. Memories are still so fresh in my mind, so does the smell of the room. I have transformed from an anatomy idiot to one that possesses adequate amount of anatomical knowledge. This transition is not possible without the help of books, cadavers and most importantly the professors. I thank them from the bottom of my heart. Knowledge that they have imparted would definitely make me a better doctor. Or at least inspire to be one.

Time flies. Soon exams would be over. Year 2010 is arriving too. Does our knowledge and quality of life vary proportionally with our age? I certainly hope so.
