How to date a doctor
Stumbled upon this article in foxnews.
Dating a med student? Check out these tips for a "healthy" relationship.
1. Don't expect to see them. Ever.
2. Accept the fact they will have many affairs. With their books.
3. Learn to hide your “ew, gross” reactions when they tell you all the stuff you never wanted to know about your bodily functions.
4. Support them when they come home after each test, upset because they failed—and gently remind them after they get their well above passing grade how unnecessary the “I’m going to fail out of medical school and never become an MD” dramatics are.
5. Each week they will have a new illness. Some will be extremely rare, others will be more mundane. Doesn’t matter. They will be certain they have it (no second opinions necessary.) Med school can, and will, turn even the sanest into a hypochondriac. Date them for long enough, and you’ll become one too.
6. There will be weeks you'll forget you even have a boyfriend—friends will ask how he is and you'll say, “What? Who? Oh....right. He's well...I think.”
7. They'll make you hyper-aware that germs are everywhere and on everything. Even though you used to walk into your home with your shoes on, and sit on your bed in the same clothes you just wore while riding the subway, or sat on a public bench in, you'll become far too disgusted to ever do it again. Believe me, it's going to get bad...you'll watch yourself transform into the anal retentive person you swore you'd never become. And when you witness others perform these same acts that, before you began dating your med student, you spent your entire life doing too, you'll wince and wonder, “Ew! How can they do that? Don't they know how many germs and bacteria they're spreading??!”
8. Romantic date = Chinese take-out in front of the TV on their 10 minute study break.
9. A vacation together consists of a trip down the street to Walgreens for new highlighters and printer paper.
10. Their study habits will make you feel like a complete slacker. For them, hitting the books 8-to-10 hours a day is not uncommon, nor difficult. You'll wonder how you ever managed to pass school on your meager one hour of studying per night.
11. They're expected to know everything. Everything! The name of the 8 billion-lettered, German sounding cell that lives in the depths of your inner ear, the technical term for the “no one's ever heard of this disease” disease that exists only on one foot of the Southern tip of the African continent. But ask them if your knee is swollen, or what you should do to tame your mucous-filled cough, or why the heck your head feels like someone's been drilling through it for oil for two weeks straight, and they won't have a clue.
12. “My brain's filled with so much information, I can't be expected to remember THAT!" will be the standard excuse for forgetting anniversaries, birthdays, and, if you get this far, probably the birth of your first-born.
13. You'll need friends with unending patience who pretend never to get sick of listening to your endless venting and complaints. Or, you'll need to pay a therapist who will pretend never to get sick of listening to your endless venting and complaints.
But take this all with a grain of salt. It's not like I'm speaking from experience or anything...

Flashback!
I just finished my major two exams and have practicals coming up the next week. I'll be back with a bang after the exams. There are many things to add in this blog.
First thing- I created this blog with the aim to supply med students important websites. I haven't quite stuck to it. But, before that I need to take care of my blog name. I myself find the name of my blog to be misleading and I can't think of any other better name. So as of now, describing about the medicine system in Nepal is one of the major task lying ahead of me. It's complicated but I'll take time and try my best to help fellow people(who are interested in studying here) to know the system here.
Also, I'll add on as many mnemonics that I know. It's my personal interest to share the mnemonics I know, even though there already are many websites for mnemonics. I hope you'll find some mnemonics that you haven't seen anywhere or are better than the ones you have come across. I can't remember of anything more important than these two major additions to this blog.
As I look ahead...I can see.. Exams and the pre-exam panic attacks. But, I'll try to update often. And, no resolutions this year. Had I kept all those resolutions over the past decade, I would be rich, thin, fit, healthy, smarter and organised. But, my life is good just the way it is :) Happy New Year People!!

Jackpot!!
I didn't win any. But, if you are reading this, you sure did!! I've been busy with my exams lately. So, to compensate for not posting all this while, I'l be posting some mnemonics often starting from the 1st of Feb, throughout the month. Too long a wait. But, my exams will finish mid-Jan and I need a hell lotta rest after it.
Be patient! Stay tuned!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Social Media- I'm an addict creator!
I didn't join Instagram and Pinterest until a few weeks back, and I was completely hooked in less than 24 hours. The telltale signs of addiction that I can see in myself- in the minutes and hours post-upload I found myself maniacally checking comments and likes as if my life depended on it.
And posting original photos makes me a "creator".
I love how instagram brings real moments from around the world into my world, all through a small screen. And why Pinterest?
This is how I'm wasting my time, when I should be pinned to the books and uploading bookish info into my brain.
If you are a fellow social media addict, you can find me pinning away as zzeher and 'gramming away as zzeher.

Don't know when I'l be back again...
Even though I am not preparing for my exams, I don't think I'll be able to post often. Blogger has been acting a bit crazy these days.
Till then, to increase your knowledge and basics I'l leave you with
1) A physiology tutor
2) A pathology tutor

Lost
Apologies to all readers for no posts for a long time. I have had a traumatic couple of weeks.
No Christmas! No New Year! It's not that I celebrate any, but the mere thought of studying at the peak of winters and giving dangerous Vivas on the day of my birthday seems pretty scary. But, just the very thought of getting 6 months of vacation after the exams makes this effort worth it!
- I had my CVS Block exam almost a month back.
- Finished with my Renal/Electrolyte Block exam yesterday. Sigh!!
It's not yet over. I'l still be going through a really rough patch right now with Reproductive/Endrocrine Block exam just a month away and just before Dashain starts. And also my Basic Science finals are starting at the last week of December and will last till Makar Sankranti.

| TRYING TO MAKE UP WITH THE NEVER ENDING EXAMS |
I'm sure I'll be back in blogging form eventually...Oh, and hey! Did I mention I got LASIK Yeah! So,this is my first blog post without glasses/ contacts. What freedom! It's been lovely not having to fuss around with them. It feels great to wear sunglasses anytime that I want to. And since I read a lot about apocalypse and stuffs, now I'm not scared of losing my glasses --> not being able to see ---> DIE!
