上个星期最脍炙人口的新闻莫过于中国佛山两岁女童被车撞倒后，躺在血泊中，经过的十八名路人没有一个肯伸出援手。从闭路电视中看到他们绕女童身边而过，并没作出任何惊讶的反应，像当作没一回事。
这段影片看了让人心寒。
即使只是看见有人跌倒，人的本能不就是会慰问以下“你还好吗？”怎么看见一个人受伤躺在路中央却可以挥袖离去？再怎样，如果你怕血，不懂该做什么，也总知道停下打电话叫救伤车吧！
后来读了一些相关报道才发现原来中国曾经有案件，帮助伤者反被伤者诬蔑，然后得赔医药费。种种的原因，让想做好心人的人都却步，害怕惹事上身。
想起六年前我被掠匪抢劫的事件，跌破了头，流着血，朋友赶紧到附近的住宅找人来帮忙，一位好心的叔叔开车把我送进急诊室。那时候，我觉得社会再怎么险恶，我都相信会有好人存在。只是，那是六年前了...
人心，渐凉了吗？

Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra)
No.1 hit song on Fox FM...
like the rhythm so much!!!
And the MV is sort of cool :)
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end
Always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
And I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
I used to know
That I used to know
Somebody...

First Suturing
On ED rotation now...finally got to do suturing on a real person!!! As usual, I felt bad for the patient, but thanks for the sacrifice...god will bless you :P
6 weeks away from being an intern, I will have to admit that it is a bit late...ah well...Really grateful to the registrar, who waited for me to come out from another patient's cubicle and offered to let me do the suturing. Before we went in, he got a suture set and a tissue box for me to briefly practice the knots.
I was thinking if I should get consent from the patient...and my answer was hell no (dont lecture me on ethics...)...unless the patient really screamed refusing me doing it...
It was a 23 year old guy who accidentally lacerated his middle finger while fixing his mountain bike. There was a flap of flesh over the PIP joint, bleeding profusely. The registrar supervised me doing a ring block and then suturing.
I decided that it wasn't a good idea to tell the patient that "Hey, you are the first patient that I suture...but don't you worry coz I have good skills in sewing!" So I just did whatever I needed to. 3 stitches done, bleeding stopped. Amazing!!!
The patient took a photo of his wound and the stitches with his iPhone. I bet you it is on FB somewhere...haha!
