Medical Exams -- Seen From A Different Angle

Hi Again,
2day while cleaning my old stock, I came across some of my original compilations - Below is one of these which i wrote during the exam days of my 1st Prof. M.B.B.S. 'Coz this poem (whether its a poem or not is upto u 2 decide) relies on some basic knowledge of the medical terminologies some of you who are not familiar with such terms may not get some of the extracts, nevermind, just skip these as i myself created the poem for time-pass only.
Hope u 'll enjoy the situation.


Stationary Warning: Shouldn't be read by those who love study and enjoy the exam days. The writer is not responsible for any severe or mild neuropsychological disturbances arising out of this of any sort whatsoever.

1st Professional Examinations
The terror is on
1st Prof. exams are on.

Sympathetic system is at its lowest threshold
Horror of failing is difficult to withhold.

Every-where there is hue & cry
As no one expects for a next try.

Thoughts come of your going home with good marks 100%
But at present it seems impossible to be at par with marks 50%.

Everytime though I plan
I always land in a jam.

Now & then I take vows to study regularly in time
But it occurs only when exams are on the border line.

Day and night all go one
But syllabus is a many tonne.

The vendours, the grounds do may lure
But theory & practicals - are hard to ignore.

Irritability & hypertension are a common sight
Nightmares are there to add to the plight.

Other than this i cant remember even a single case
Where retrograde & antegrade amnesia simultaneously take place.

In history one can hope to make phrases
But anatomy & bio-chemistry surely press up the creases.

Embryo model reminds me of a crystal maze
Skeletal looks like a spade & an ace.

Gross may cause convulsions
But histo is another name for hallucinations.

Bio-chem equations are too volatile
Normal values are so fragile.
A plus here & a minus there
And ask the teacher marks are where.

Though I always think of strucking the next paper with a prime
But I doubt whether in my life I'll have such a great time.

Its contemporary to make wishes to pass exams with ease
But luck also seems to have taken a deep freeze.

With all the pains to bear & to face all the odds, I am prepared
One day these thorny tracks will be cleared.

Struggle is an essense of life
At no cost should you compromise.

Now there is no way back & I have accepted the challenge. May be thats why I LOVE EXAMS (Seems Even I am Getting some side effects)

My Ist Blog - Something About Me

Hello There,
This is my 1st ever attempt at publishing a blog. Ok, Ok,I know, i know, I jumped into the wagon late but likewise someone said - " Better Late Than Never."
All words of support and healthy criticism are invited.


When I was in the school, i hated Diary, my teacher always wanted me to write down regularly. All I wrote was .....woke up......brushed teeth......eat breakfast......this & that......boring schedule......tuitions....blah....blah....blah. My teacher would read it -----> it was ok, no questions asked ------>so i carried on doing it till that stuff was over.


Hey.... wait, that was around 12yrs back & here I am now actually writing one for myself ---- WOW !!!!!!! "Technology with human edge"

I'm not writing because I want to make a great fan following or to earn a living from it. May be someone I know can know more of me or someone i don't, will be interested to know me -- "A Simple Guy Living On This Small Blue Planet." .........Omhhh, now you know that i'm a guy, but anyways i was not trying to attract just gals (That would be better though).

A bit more about me --- I am a scorpion. People call me: Manik Aggarwal (name choosen by my parents), Moga/Baniya ( don't ask me why, but my friends prefer to call me by these two names). I'll be 25 on 26-10-2005 (meaning i was born in the year of monkey - luckiest one in chinese callender). I'm a doctor & am currently pursuing my studies in G. Surgery in the laps of beautiful hills of Sidhra, J&K, India.

What shape will this blog take, what direction will this head, what purpose will it serve --- Frankly I do not know. I will let It "Fly Like A Free Bird Just Out Of Its Cage", expressing my feelings & opinions all the way.

Just like "Rome Was Not Built In A Day", I can't write my whole feelings in one post.
Thanks for your reading all the mumble-jumble above & keep looking for more.

Take Good Care.
