Assalamualaikum wbt.

Being in the second semester of my third year really do makes me feel like a veterinarian already. Remember the round systems, yeah. you have to work on a case and present. During the presentation, you'll get bombarded by lots of questions related to your case. Every word on your slide is questioned. Even grammatical error. Hence, you couldn't afford to make mistakes. Veterinarian, as do human doctor couldn't afford to make mistakes as we're also dealing with the lives of Allah's precious creatures.

My pathology round taught me to think universally. My group supervisor taught us not to receive carcass without enough history or information. As in to protect ourselves from highly dangerous pathogens such as anthrax, rabies virus and others. As my other respected lecturers disagree with that statement saying that, with or without enough history you must take the carcass and perform the post-mortem. That is your duty as a veterinarian. For example, if there's an outbreak in your farm that you don't know what is the cause, it is your duty to perform post-mortem and investigate the cause of that outbreak. There are plenty of ways to protect yourselves, for example, by wearing protective face masks, gloves (if possible, wear double gloves), coverall, labcoat or an apron. And you must perform the post-mortem as septic as possible.

See, how we, students stucked between two different point of view of our respected lecturers. Like the malay's saying "Ditelan mati ibu, di luah mati bapa' and you don't want to disrespect to your teachers. If only we Asians argue like the western does. Our problem is, we tend to take our disagreement by heart. 

Today was the most interesting surgery class ever. I'm sorry Prof Mirza but I do like Dr. Rumaizi way of teaching more. It's not that Prof Mirza isn't good. He is a great surgeon. It's just Prof Mirza is way too fast when performing the techniques and don't really let us do the thing by ourselves. Teacher job is to teach and guide us, open the door and let us discover the knowledge ourselves. Surgery is nothing until you practice it.
And to Prof. Madya. Dr. Rumaizi, Welcome to our FPV family. :))

This is us with Dr. Rumaizi during Miss Ahlami's wedding. He is Miss Ahlamis's brother in law. I guess we really do capture his heart until he decided to be part of our FPV family. :)
Btw, he is cool! I like the way he talks and perform the surgery techniques. Sangat kemas! 

Love Note 1: This week I'll be in Large Animal Round (Ruminant). Tomorrow will be heading to cow farm. Moo Moo. I hope it's a dairy farm. Merasa juga minum susu segar terbaik dari ladang! :D
