The affirmation of the day is that ‘Zoro is the Goat’ and no one comes close to him.

Doctors are definitely the masters of sophistry.

My gosh, the way Oda wrote out Zoro’s metamorphose storyline is crazy good, this guy is really taking the whole power upgrade scale to another level. The little screen time he gets, he maxes it out, and eats it well

The way some patients are you have to reply candidly, then and only then will you see action

The way I threw reverent words at my chief today just to help me set a line, because this patient’s lines today were so not it.

Patients and vexing you are like 5&6. If they don’t vex you, they haven’t done their due diligence. They don’t always do what you tell them to do, instead they do what they want and when the complications are terrible, they turn back to us and expect us to be the almighty and create the solution to all these problems. Look at how a simple don’t wear pampers instructions to my patient turned to us debriding wound caused by wearing pampers😪

There’s nothing more jubilant than the mood of a house officer walking out of this hospital on a day they’re not on call. Since I started, I haven’t left early once. I’m working on changing that. From now on, every day I’m not on call will feel like this — jubilant. The plan: stay home, watch films, play games, and just enjoy freedom. I can’t wait for that day to start… and for many more to follow.

The way siblings quibble over absolutely anything is exactly why I’ll always cherish sibling love and rivalry. It’s so much fun — having someone to play with, run around with, and yes, even rage-bait. Arguing about the silliest things, letting them think they’re right, then laughing about it 5 minutes later. That’s the magic.

Information percolates too fast these days. You can’t tell someone something and expect it to stay with them. It’ll percolate slowly, drip by drip, until everyone knows. It may not spread like wildfire like a rumor, but it gets there. Remember that registrar from school? No ring = "she’s divorced." Then she’s pregnant a few months later and suddenly everyone goes quiet. Later we found out her husband, a doctor at another hospital, never left her. They’re fine. Moral of the story: let things *percolate* through facts first, not gossip. Such is life, men.
