Is That Your Identity?

Been researching about Med stuff... And learnt a couple of new things about pathology thanks to wiki. Woo ok so some random stuff about pathology.

BENLOW'S SUMMARY OF PATHOLOGY
(Koped partially from wiki)

1. Pathology is the study of diseases, its causes, processes and potential cures.

2. Pathology is divided into two main branches: anatomical pathology and clinical pathology.

3. Anatomical pathology: The study of a body's tissues or cells to diagnose disease

4. Clinical pathology: The study of bodily excretions to diagnose disease

5. To be a forensic pathologist, you first have to specialize in pathology after medicine, then branch to anatomical pathology after that.

6. Which means a super long period of study. Aww man.

7. Reasons why disease arise include the following:
a) Trauma (People whacking you very very hard)
b) Infection (Bacteria or viruses entering your body)
c) Poisoning (Eating some weird chemical)
d) Loss of blood flow (Wounds or heart malfunctions)
e) Autoimmunity (Reactions from foreign entities in your body)
f) Inherited genetic damage (Certain genes passed on from your parents)
g) Errors in development (Something goes wrong with your growth)

8. Pathologists either work in labs or mortuaries.

9. Pathologists either do lots of autopsies or lots of experimental procedures.

10. Most other kinds of doctors working in hospitals have to rely on pathologists to give them information on what the problem with their patients are if diagnosis is not apparent initially.

I'm quite excited about it actually. Morbid for the typical person, yes. But I'm not exactly a very normal guy anyways. I really do want to do this so much.

Second choice job ~ Criminal Psychologist!

Got a bit of inspiration from "Iron Man", the biography of Neivelle Tan, the dangerous gangster turned pastor in order to make that decision. My Dad passed it to me to read, and its a really powerful story of the change from a sceptic full of hatred, vengefulness, to a whole hearted believer changed by the power of a few words from the bible. And it all happened in a prison.

So perhaps... Maybe perhaps. I'll go there and see what I can do?

List of fun stuff I intend to do:
1. Watch latest Bleach manga and anime episodes
2. Watch latest Naruto manga and anime episodes
3. Play 1 hour trial versions of MSN games
4. A bit of experimenting on RPG Maker XP
5. A bit of experimenting on M.U.G.E.N?

Better do these before the next round of exams come around.

It's been quite some time since the last post, and time has just been ticking on. I'm entering a new phase in my career in a new office at Queenstown. Things are good on the work front, as I've been given a vote of confidence and responsibilities despite my young age. Eventually I'll be getting re-designated as a Team Leader, and looking forward to it! It's a sign that I am well versed enough in the work. Another part of my life that has been looking up - playing keys/bass for the newly created Saturday Service for church. I feel that spiritually things are well despite the turmoil of last year. A great sense of fulfillment and meaning whenever I do that, as if I'm back to my roots. In terms of leisure the usual things:  1. Soccer - Late night matches (back to the good old days) 2. PS4 - Trying to finish off Tales of Berseria, moving on to Assassins Creed: Origin thereafter 3. Anime - Still watching the good old stuff that is still going on (One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh,...

Digimon

 I'm feeling quite nostalgic and have been thinking about my childhood a lot recently. A lot of it is because of the retreat I just had with my CG members and how having such a retreat reminded me of days that were more slower paced and more relaxed.  It makes me want to relive some of my memories. Two ways that I've thought about is soccer - I've been watching some of the World Cup matches, and it reminds me of the late nights I had watching matches when I was 15 or so and just starting this blog. About how soccermugger came to be in the first place and how I wanted this platform to post about soccer scores and how I felt about the matches I watched. The other way is to watch old anime, and I'm thinking about revisiting the first ever anime I watched which was Digimon. It was televised in Mandarin at 8am, and I remember waking up early on the weekends to watch it fervently. Maybe its time to do that again.  In general I guess my inclinations are to be more at ease and ...

Hiya everyone! Just signed my permanent staff contract today and I must say that was a real moment of satisfaction. Shows that the 2 years of hard work and dedication to what I do has paid off in a big way and I'm happy with my work. When I started my job I had no idea it would be this fulfilling and enjoyable and I am so blessed to have it. Couple of exciting things are happening: for one a holiday with my family to Korea. Other stuff include pay raises and the bonus that goes with it, Euro 2016 etc. I finally watched a match on Saturday (it was boring) but Sunday night's matches were great. Tonight not too sure if I'll watch any but it's shaping up to be an exciting tournament. Well that's all for now, more updates after the next series!
