Had a nice chat with 2 of my friend yesterday night (or rather today early morning!?!) from 2pm to 3.30pm... We realized that compared to previous years in university, the interpersonal interactions among us had greatly reduced...
We attribute it to the increasing amount of workload, have to study back 1st year's basic sciences: physiology, biochemistry, and (Grey's? : p) anatomy in addition to current clinical sciences, pathology (not pak-toh-logy) and other -logies i.e. haematology, endocrinology, parasitology, and the list goes on; added to these, we have to clerk case, try to perfect our clinical skills while trying to squeeze a huge amount of knowledge into 1 tiny brain... TOUGH.
So naturally, less and less time for chats, less and less people go for club activities and less and less interactions... It's mostly about studies, homeworks and patients... I guess it's true to say that a doctor is bound to it's life long profession and does not have (or rather couldn't have) a brisk social life.
It's really very hard to juggle between study load and social life. More time spent in social meaning less time to study meaning less knowledge gained yet knowledge is very important for doctors as they are dealing with precious lives that's entrusted to them.
Wonder how will my future life will be like???
