Laiba Khalid’s
THIRD YEAR Chronicles
.jpg)
For the majority, stepping into the wards, clad in overalls
with a stethoscope hung around their necks, feeling like a real ‘daacter’and
reaching out to the patients is like a dream come true. It’s something they
have been looking forward to all their lives (for they are probably the first
in their family to attain this status) but sadly for most of the wards 3rd
year is nothing more than a punching bag.
HALFWAY ALREADY!
- ‘You’re in 3rd year already?! It seems almost yesterday you got admission in KE … ’
Sounds familiar? M sure all of you must have heard this cliché
from your friends & family you meet once or twice a year or maybe after 2
years (for the reason that you’re a med student ! and you require no other
excuse to miss social gatherings). Well thank you folks for making us realize
how fast we’re aging, how soon this journey will end and within no time we’ll
be outta this place, gone and forlorn as if we never existed.
- But there are some boosting ones as well:

ALMOST THERE
Well it actually feels as if ‘kal hi to admission hua tha’. The
recollections of FSc, MCAT, first day, the orientation day, first step in DH
and the first prof are all crystal-clear. The mere thought that the venture, which
seemed dreadful in first year got pretty exciting in second year and has now become
addictive, will terminate soon is heartbreaking as hell. But cheer up guys !
Some awesomeness is bound to leave KE every year according to the norm and let’s
hope when we retire, we pass down some goodness too :)
ALMOST DOCTORS
ALMOST SENIORS
You know you’re a senior when :
>Hearing your name with post-fixes like baji / api / bhai does not appear funny anymore
>You don’t smile on them juniors’ faces or find your friends teasing you when they address you that way
>You find it rather offending when a junior calls you otherwise
>Hearing your name with post-fixes like baji / api / bhai does not appear funny anymore
>You don’t smile on them juniors’ faces or find your friends teasing you when they address you that way
>You find it rather offending when a junior calls you otherwise
>You are no longer the kids of the university (meaning you should
quit complaining)
And I think I should stop right here and save the rest for
the next episode !
