too many things to update

its been a while since i last wrote in this blog...bet u all have been waiting for a new entry....(haha...ade ke yg tggu???)well,i'm quite a busy person u know..haha...keeping myself busy with almost everything,from study,to sports that i'm involve in..fuuhhh.....but everything is worth it....

hmm....how about i start this entry with some bookworm stuf...i'm a nerd afterall...my motto is "study laa sampai tua"..hehe...

i have one question for u guys..do u know what is the difference between human brain and a monkey/primate brain???
that question were asked by one of my lecturer,dr farida during my last presentation..mine was the last presentation of the semester and all the other students hope for me to end this presentation stuff with style...the presentation entitled 'cortical areas of the brain',which literally means functional area of the brain,which part of the brain control what movements,sensory information were sent to which part of the brain.damage to this part of the brain will cause what dysfunction....blablabla........

well,the presentation went really well in my liking,with me fluently went through in depth about this topic,but this particular question from dr farida really caught me.....oh damn!!!!!i never read anything about a monkey's brain...i'm studying human anatomy,not veterinary.....how should i know anything regarding a monkey brain!!!!!

i kept my cool,took a deep breath,pause for about 10 seconds,then came one great idea,well,what human can do and a primate cant???thinking i guess.....thinking also involve an area in the brain...which is the prefrontal cortex,located in the anterior part of the frontal lobe of brain at the forehead region,which is the higher center for human thinking and it create a personality to human..hmm..lgpon dahi monyet tu kan nampak leper je,dahi manusia jendul sket...bole kot bg jawapan ni aku rase......

so,i just gave that answer and guess what??it is right!!!!!!!huhu....i make a fist and threw it to the air in happiness....dr2 pon tekejut..haha...bantai pon btol,tu yg hepi sgt tu...haha.......

i'm so relieve after that presentation,now that i can study for the final exam which will start at 25/5/09...wish me luck for my final exam,this will determine my master future,if i make a mess and get below 3.00 CGPA,my master will be terminated....pray to god that this will not happen..

move on to sports.....i participate in sukan staff,inter PTJ UPM.....i took part in athletics,volleyball,and football...

for the athletics,i joined long jump,and also 4X100.....i made it to the final for both of the events,but during the final,only managed to get 5th place for both of it...(ye laa,org laen siap ade wakil malaysia lg,malik tobias pon join!!!huhu...)

the volleyball seems a little bit like a fairy tale story,we made it to the semi final,defeating FEP and FPV in the group stage,and food tech in quarter final,only to be beaten by FSKTM in the semis..well,it really is an achievement for a rather modest team like mine....the tournament were won by gabungan pusat sukan & akademi sukan(obviously la kan....),which again,featuring malik tobias....huhu....

me waiting for the ball

me blocking the ball ;p

football havent finish yet,as my FPSK team booked a place in the quarter final by defeating bendahari upm(3-0) and FEM(4-1) with me playing as a centerback which is not really the position that i prefer...in the first match,our manager said that i was the man of the match(kembang hidung jap) winning all the air battle and crucially block and nullify everything the opposition threw at us,but everything does not went as planned for the 2nd match,as i scored the sole goal for the opponent...yes,i scored an own goal!!!!!!thank you......hahaha....well,is there any other way for a center back to score a goal???huhu..it came from a lack of concentration i guess,as i was guarding the near post from an opposition corner,they took a quick one,then at the edge of the penalty box,no players stop the opposition from taking a shot on goal,and the ball just gashes my head as i tried to clear,but unfortunately the ball went into my own net....it was a team mistake really,as no one close down the opponent,and the goalkeeper just behind me didnt shout at me that he is indeed behind me and can get the ball if i didnt head it....fuuuhh...(takpela,kesian kat FEM sbb susah sgt nak gol,jd aku tlg la jaringkan....hehe....)

the quarterfinal will be at 5/5/09 against pendaftar,which is actually one of the favourites for the tournament..so,wish me luck for this one....hehe...

liverpool went out from the CL in the hand of chelsea,a battling performance by the man in reds..it was a great game and really,the way liverpool crashed out of the tournament is really like a fighter one...fight till the last minute....4-4 draw at stamford bridge is a great achievement..

last week,liverpool again battling for a 4-4 draw against arsenal,proud of their effort....

that's all i guess for now..not going to update this blog for a while,maybe after the final exam i will continue...with lots more exciting stories and experiences...bye for now!!!

presentation 2 - thyroid gland

friday, 6/3/09

this time around,prof azian does not attend because of her commitment elsewhere...so i'm quite relieved with the fact that she's not there..hehe..but its just that i suffered for diarrhea for 2 days coming into the presentation..huh.....

the presentation went well,in fact excellent from my point of view..

the comments and question as usual

dr farida

u presented well,full of confident....1 question for u...what is the main structure that cause the thyroid gland to move during deglutition??

my answer: suspensory ligament of barry that connects thyroid gland to cricoid cartilage of larynx...it is actually a thickening of the pretracheal fascia of the neck.

dr farida: good answer

dr srijit:
as usual,i like ur presentation..u r confident,ur interaction with the audience is good..i have some questions for u.if there is an enlargement in the gland,in which way the gland will expand and compress other structure?

me:to posterior part of the neck and it will compress mainly the recurrent laryngeal nerve that pass through behind the gland and it will alters the voice pitch..also it will compress the common carotid artery in the carotid sheath behind the gland..

dr srijit:why the enlargement will compress the structure posterior to the gland?

me:because of the fascia there is thinner as compare to other surface of the gland

dr srijit:why is carcinoma of the gland is very dangerous?

me:because the cancer can spread to surrounding structures through the rich plexuses of lymphatic around the gland and also it can erodes the structures especially if it erodes the carotid sheath and common carotid artery than it can cause massive bleeding

dr srijit:4th question,during surgery,where to ligate the arteries that enters the gland?

me: there are 2 arteries that enters the gland,the superior and inferior thyroid arteries..for the superior thyroid artery,we ligate it near to the gland as at the origin of the artery,there is the external branch of superior laryngeal nerve passing through..for the inferior thyroid artery,we ligate it away from the gland as the recurrent laryngeal nerve is related near the terminal part of the artery..so to avoid injury to these nerves,the doctors will ligate it at that area..

dr srijit:excellent answer....now,about ur clinical anatomy,u mention about goiter...so what is retrosternal goiter??

me:during the descend of the gland during embryological development of the gland,if the gland descend too much,it will enters the superior mediastinum and compress the structures around it..this is why it is known as retrosternal goiter,because of the location of the gland at abnormal place,behind the sternum...more specifically the manubrium sternum

dr srijit:very impressive..u seems to have pretty good understanding about the gland...very good,u can answer all my question...

me:my mom have hyperthyroidism,thats why...

dr faizah:
very good,i have no question because u seems to have answered all of it..only u seems like "tak semangat je arini"...because everytime i see u,ur presentation is full of it...mayb next time u need to improve la eh..

me:...........................(taknak la bg alasan saket perot pulak...) i only smiled....

actually,i have already expected those questions to be asked,thats why i can answer all of it....i intentionally left out the fact about those things in my presentation hoping that they will asks them.hehe....so,pengajaran daripada presentation itu adalah,jgn la bgtau sume bende dlm presentation korg,nnt kalo lecturer takde bende nak tanye dah,diorg akan tanye bende pelik2...tp jgn la tinggalkan byk sgt bende smpi presentation korg jd pelik pulak,tak cukop facts...ok??hehe...yg ke-2,spot question...mcm slalu buat time nak dekat exam tu......mcm la tak biase pulak..hehe......terime kaseyyy!!

tahniah kepada abdul rashid rakan seperjuangan master yg baru mendapat cahaya mata pertama, sofea zahra pada minggu lepas..rashid ckp dia letih tak cukop tido sbb jaga anak,tapi wajah tetap berseri2...maklum laa...anak pertama kan...

rectum and anal canal

16/1/09

this morning,i presented on the aforementioned topic..this is my first presentation in the 2nd semester and also my first presentation in this new year..

guess what??the votes are, 3 judges voted for me and one against..

here are the comments and questions from the lecturers

dr srijit dass

comments:thank you hanief,that was a very nice presentation,and as usual,u presented it full of confident...
question:how do u treat haemorrhoids

my answer:do a surgery to treat it?(lol...very not anatomist answer one)
his answer:you ligate it,then it will fall off by itself...
then i added:because of there is a plexus of vein in that area,so ligating it wont have any significant complication from the procedure on the patient as the blood can flow to the other tributaries...(bantai je....just to look smart!muahahaha....)

dr farida hussan

comments:i agree with dr srijit,you are a very confident person..i just have one question for you
question:u've mention about the pectinate line..besides what u have mention just now,do u know any other thing that occur at that particular place??

my answer:yes,this is the line where the epithelial lining changes

question:it changes from what to what?

my answer:above the pectinate line,it is made up of columnar epithelium,whereas below it,the epithelial lining is form by stratified squamuos epithelium..

dr srijit interupted:why is it changes like that?

my answer:this is because of its different embryological origin,above pectinate line is developed from hindgut,and below it is developed from ectoderm just like the skin.

AP dr faizah

comments:i agree with the previous 2 comments..just that i would like to add,not that ur presentation is not good,just to improve it...the picture in your presentation is not that good....some of it is not that clear and u should add more picture to show what u've describe..and because of there is too much word on ur slides,then u tend to read it when it is better u describe it from a picture really.....

question:u mention about anal fistula just now....so,what is the difference between anal fistula and anal sinus???

me:???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????i dont know.....(haha...simple and short answer that is)

dr faizah:i want u to go back and check for it eh...thank you

AP dr. azian-programme coordinator

comments:u presented worse than what i have expected...it is by far,the worst presentation i have seen u given by your standard..u have some typing error in it,u put too much word on the slides that results in u only reading from the slide...if its about reading,then you dont need to present it,just put the slides on and i also can read it by myself!ur picture doesnt resemble what u've describe and its even not clear..u mention about the location of haemorrhoids at the 3, 7, and 11 o'clock,but in ur picture it was like 1, 5 and 9 o'clock from what i've seen (err...actually,that picture is a view from above laa,not from below)
from now on,all of you (referring to other master student) when it comes to the blood supply or venous drainage,i want u to just put picture on it,and no words are allowed...(sorry oad,pasni ko kne present entirely on blood supply je..haha...)...so that's it.

me:shattered, speechless..feels like the white screen is whacked behind my head..and all i can do is just smile like a silly guy...her expectation on me is sky high,i just manage to deliver the peak of kinabalu mt..maybe for others what i did was good enough,for a perfectionist like her,every minute details is taken into account..nevermind,i'll do better next time..improvement is a must incik hanepp!!!!!no more knock-out punch is allowed to blow my head..dont give any reasons,just do what ur suppose to!ada paham????bagossss.......padan muke awak hanepp

pengajarannye:kate oad-lenkali g cek kat kak sa'yah(kerani opis) bile prof azian ade..kalo die ade kne prepare btol2..haha...salah asuhan ni....

2nd sem,here i come

last thursday,i met prof azian to know how i've done for the 1st semester final xm.and the results are....................................................jeng jeng jeng!!!!!

i obtained a conditional pass..fuuhhh.....what a relief.....to know that i am able to continue for the 2nd semester...the full results are,2.96 cgpa,ranked 5th behind 4 medical doctors,and ahead of all 4 others ex-biomed student.and that is just a mere 0.04 from a full pass cgpa..i got a B+ for my gross anatomy,B for my histology,and just like i've predicted,embryology ruined my pointers with a C+..overall,i'm quite dissapointed not to get a full pass...but hey,life goes on.

i just need another 3.1 for the next semester,and prof azian thinks that i dont need any mentors to pass this course,and she also mentioned that generally,everyone did better in the 2nd semester as compare to the 1st one.that takes so much burden off my back..but still,knowing that i must do well this sem to pass,i must work hard..even its just 2 subjects this sem.

for the gross anatomy,i will have to learn about the abdomen,pelvis and perineum,and also head and neck..head and neck should be the one to watch out for...and the 2nd subject is neuroanatomy,which all my seniors said is the hardest course..i must get a combination of at least a B+ and a B to obtain full pass.but i'm targeting to get at least an A- for both of the subjects,just to make sure that i pass strongly though..

hopefully,you all can pray for me,and hopefully,i can overcome any obstacle hindering me from getting the best results that i can..i know that i must not play around so much like the last semester,and i also know that i must get ready from the beginning.no more last minute study like last sem,just relying on study groups and the nigt before xm,cannot sleep because of so much yet to be covered..huhh...

this is my plan for this semester..

1-must at least do some revision of what have been thought for the whole week
2-must finish up all the asignment in time
3-must complete the slide show for my presentation one day before,and on the day only need to rehearse it.
4-do all the tutorials given even though it wasnt necessary
5-complete the dissection early,so that i can focus on revising
6-and no more last minute study!!!!!!

i know i can do it,i know i have the ability to do it,and i know i will do it..

chayyo'2!!!!!!!
