Malaria virus.

Plasmodium malariae is NOT a VIRUS!!

PLASMODIUM MALARIAE IS A
PARASITIC PROTOZOA!

Fuhhh~ I had to get that off my chest.

Yeap, i confused my parasites and viruses in my exam today (very silly schoolgirl mistake).

Nope, nope... i'm not depressed. Why would i be? This is the stuff of legends; exactly the idiotic mistake Prof Cormican would remember for life; just the kind of stupid blunder he'll 'lovingly' recount in his series of lectures to the future generations of med students unfortunate enough to cross his path.

So just between you and me... i actually wrote 'malarial virus' on my answer script on purpose. It was part of my elaborate masterplan to make Prof Cormican notice me. Heh.

I'm 'brilliant'.

I know.

Bravo to me!!

Hahaha... speaking of stethoscope, i have a funny story.

The other day masa my OSCE exam, i had to auscultate the patient's heart, tapi peliknya i couldn't hear anything. To save myself from failing, i pura2 macam dgr je laa... then i realized i actually had the earpiece part of my stethoscope hanging around my neck... Thank goodness stethoscope tu bawah tudung, jadi tak kantoi dgn the examiner..

Hehe.. so if that's what they call pandai, then with all my accumulated blunders so far, i think i can claim myself to be a genius! =P

Women are always good with face expressions :D

I had faked several (under some unavoidable circumstances) and they had saved my dignity, big time!

Btw, mistakes are opportunities of learning something new.

Cool aje KJ.

In my field, mistakes had often lead me to a more fantastico recipes!
I had once baked chocolate chip mint cookies that my friend claimed they tasted as good as mrs field's.
And it was by pure accident, I happened to misread the actual recipe :P

In my field, mistakes could cost someone's life.

Hence, the reason why I can't afford to make mistakes.
