On Being Medical Students

We were taking the elevator to go up to the 8th floor for medical ward rounds. There was a young chinese male doctor, presumably a medical officer. After his colleague left on the 3rd floor, there were just us few medical students, him, and a few other staff.

Doctor: You all medical students ah, so young, climb the stairs lah. You're depriving the patients from using the elevator.

And he left on the 4th floor.

Blardy hell. I know it's not right of me to say so. But we're going up to the 8th floor for Christ's sake. Try climb 8 storeys of stairs and see what will happen. We're going to be the patient by the time we reach the ward. Climb the stairs huh? Given if I were to do my rounds on the fourth floor, I would still consider using the stairs lah. 8 floors wei, you climb lah!

Somehow, what the doctor said bugged me a lot. I was particularly disturbed. Might he be one of the maglinant doctors that would be taking us in the future?

But having our first class today, I peeped on the our list and saw who our teaching clinician be. Guess what, we got to be under a pretty cute doctor. :) I hope I don't see wrongly.
