Word or no word

At times it so happens that words loose their meaning. It so happens that you are reading a case history and it is making no sense at all. The words are trying to tell you that the patient has been sick for a while and has nausea and vomiting and tarry stools and jaundice and purpura but nothing adds up in your mind. This is the time of the mind block. I am going through one of those times when the mind is effectively under a block. One tends to read through cases and try solve the questions but nothing adds up. The worst thing is that one doesn't even remember anything new. All the reading is lost and there is nothing but chaos. Total chaos.
Trying to concentrate is hard these days. It is one pleasure that I am not able to enjoy in its full force. The condition has been such that I have not been able to enjoy for quite sometime. But come what may I have faith. I have faith that things will change for the better. Infact I am being a little unthankful when I say that I have not been rewarded for my patience. It has never been the case. Of late I have been relieved by my visa approval and I might not mention it or take it in a stride but those who are following my professional ideology know that getting the visa is a gamble in itself and those who succeed to get it in time are no less fortunate.
Pray that I am able to apply my self in a better way and am able to make use of the time that I have at my disposal properly. Pray that I am able to concentrate on my studies and that I am able to understand what words are trying to tell me.

Learning Arduino 1

This holiday season I decided to gift myself some basic electrical components in the form of a Arduino UNO set from Elegoo. I have always had a desire to tinker with electronics and in gifting myself this basic set I am now starting on a journey to quench my inner electrical workman's thirst. I hope to develop this hobby as I move forward and will, from time to time, post about it here on the blog. As the journey moves forward I am sure to run into trouble and issues. But as they say you can not master anything without first being a fool at it, so I have decided to remain a fool at it until I am a little good at it. To start with, I do possess some elementary knowledge in electronics and electronic circuits. I intend to further my knowledge using the world wide web and following some very useful video channels on youtube. I will first start with some very basic projects to familiarize myself with Arduino and basic electronic circuits and techniques such as soldering. Then graduall...

iPad 2

The new iPad is worth it's money. Sleek slender design is a plus and so is the light weight. I am not really impressed by the camera as the pictures with both front and back cameras are pixelated and very amateurish looking. It's handy in the sense that I can carry it around while making rounds and access patient information on the go. This makes life easier and for someone like myself this means much less paper waste. I think one added advantage is that I will waste less time on writing down all the information on a piece of paper every morning and will be able to pull it up anytime I want to do so or need to do so. This gives me more time to think and reflect on the patient and spend more time with the patient rather than time in front of a bulky computer. There are new apps I am discovering every day. However there is still dearth of good medical apps that have been modeled for iPad. This makes the productivity of the iPad a little less but still the benefits of having a w...

Elections '08

Parliamentary Elections are just 12 hours away in Pakistan. Unlike all previous elections i have reached the voting age for these elections. Now i can use my right to vote to select a candidate that i think represents future and progress. I can be part of the democratic process. I can be a miniature vector of change or towards change. But i will not use my right to vote. that means i will not participate in the process of electing representatives who will rule my country and my fate for the next five years, even more if they get their way like this present dictator, Musharraf. In doing so i will loose my right to object to any actions of the 'elected', more so selected representatives of this country. but this can be debated and in most probability i will not pass from any opportunity to pointing out wrong doings and mischief in the character of those who lead my unfortunate country in the future. I will not vote because i know the outcomes of the elections have been pr...
