I got into medical school
Apparently I didn’t post the news here. But yes, I did get into medical school and have been a MS1 for 1.5 months. I expect to graduate with my MD in 2025.
Just a heads-up for my followers here. I have a new account at @sherlock-study and would appreciate it if you continue to follow my journey there.
Hi there. If you don’t have the degrees in your header (and are not in school for those degrees either) is is not honest to list them, and can give people the wrong idea (especially the MD and JD which have very specific professional rules about interactions/advice on social media). Good luck with your studies
Thanks for the heads-up. I remember typing “goals:” or something of that sort in front of them but I just checked and it’s not there.
I’m now in medical school and working towards my MD (and I don’t plan to pursue a JD as won’t contribute much to my future plans), but I’ll update the header asap. Thanks.
how do you stay consistently productive? I have this problem where I'm very productive one week and then completely lose the sense of it the next
Honestly I have this particular problem as well!!!
The first thing you should do, if you haven’t already, is get a planner. Preferably one with a monthly, and weekly view (daily spreads can be very helpful but will add to the weight).
—————
For the monthly spread, I do this:
Go through the syllabus if you have one, and fill in every deadline/exam/other important dates. I use a red pen for all academic stuff.
Then fill in all appointments (such as doctor appointments, club meetings, family gatherings, and other obligations) in. I use a blue pen for this purpose.
Then, fill in the “fun” events (such as concerts, ball games, and the start of a new season of your favorite TV show). I use green for this.
Unconfirmed obligations or events will be written with pencil.
Additional information/other stuff will be written with black ink.
Having a multipen (I like the Dr. Grip and Jetstream, both 4+1 multipens with red, blue, green, black, and pencil) helps immensely with planning. I also separate each day’s grid into AM/PM, but this is optional.
—————
For the weekly spread:
The first thing is to transfer everything from your monthly spread to your weekly. Also, I refer to the syllabus of each course and fill in the topics of every lecture.
Make a to-do list somewhere on the page of everything you need to do this week. Don’t stress about distributing these tasks to each day just yet. List anything and everything from doing laundry to writing your term paper.
This should be an important part of your Sunday ritual!
—————
A few words on the monthly and weekly spreads:
Immediately write down every new event/appointment in your monthly spread as soon as the date is confirmed. I cannot stress enough the importance of this habit. The entire point of keeping a planner is to track shit you need to do.
Every morning or night, check your list and cross off the things you have done. Add or remove tasks as needed. I use the bullet journal format as I find it to be intuitive. The action of putting that x on a completed task is very rewarding, but you can also create little incentives to boost your productivity.
—————
If you have a daily spread, you can use it to reflect on your productivity each day. It doesn’t have to be like grading yourself for your performance. Instead, you might want to write down what you learned that day, and summarize concepts that you are not familiar with in your own words. Set aside a chunk of time to do this at the end of the day before bed.
—————
Feel free to ask me about planners because lord knows YA BOI GOT A TON TO SAY ABOUT THESE LITTLE SHITS.
The second part is about routines, and this deserves its own post. I will make one on routines (morning/commute/evening/Sundays) if I have time!
Hey there, so I’m Taiwanese Born American and been to Taiwan several times and I think I’ve seen everything there is to see in the tourist book 😂. I wanted to ask you if there are any more discreet places with a lot of rich Taiwanese history in it. I’m planning on bringing my friends in America to Taiwan one day and I want to show them more historical attractions. Any suggestions?
Yes! Small stationery boutiques and cafes are scattered all around the city, also bookstores, college campuses...I can’t think of any secret spots right now, but consider the entire city of Taipei a huge secret spot haha. It’s a city worth spending many days in. Comb through alleys and lanes. Go on a hike. Try suspicious-looking food (make sure it’s clean though...)
If you haven’t visited already, I suggest starting with National Taiwan University. My school has been around since the late 19th century, and has been through Japanese, KMT, and democratic rule. The campus is a really interesting mix of old and new. Cool new buildings loom over historical ones. Next to the main library there’s also the Chen Wen-Chen Memorial Square. Chen was an outstanding pro-independence stats professor who, after graduating from NTU, went on to teach at Carnegie Mellon. On a family trip back to Taiwan, he disappeared. His body was found on the NTU campus the next day. The case remains unsolved, but many believe that he was murdered by the KMT for his political opinions. There are also agricultural labs dating back to the late 19th/early 20th century. A lot of research completed there led to newer and better crops. The plaza right in front of the Main Gate used to be the only place people could opine freely during the Martial Law era. There are lots to see.
Another great place to visit is the area surrounding Ximending/Taipei Main Station/Presidential Office. Historical sites abound and there are lots of interesting shops in the area.
Over the years I’ve developed an indifference to tourist attractions but Taipei is full of hidden gems if you spend some time slowly exploring the city.
Sorry for the late reply-I’ve moved to another blog. This one is still occasionally active but the majority of my new stuff is now posted at @sherlock-study so feel free to follow that account :D
I deleted all social media apps from my phone.
Because I noticed a trend.
What was I doing on the bus? Following some stranger’s family drama? Reading posts my friends made about a pop star I neither know nor care about? Reading biased news with misleading titles? I’m wasting my time.
I could be reading a great book, you know. And instead I’m here trying to guess if The Algorithm will boost that post I made about how LGBT Christians are valid (yes we are) while hiding my expletive-ridden rant about a leaky dorm sink.
I still want an outlet (such as a studyblr) to talk about the things that mean a lot to me, and follow my friends’ lives to a certain extent. So I still use social media, but almost never with a smartphone, and certainly not with an app that was DESIGNED to be addictive. If it’s urgent then, well, the bullshit web version will have to do.
Make a bad habit so difficult to execute, you cringe at the thought of trying to do it.
It really helps. try it.
an idea
every couple of weeks, go to the library and randomly borrow a random book about something random.
like pineapple pollination or african art or medieval benedictine monks or fluid mechanics or cookie recipes.
make it a priority to read that book instead of mindlessly scrolling through social media and getting nothing out of your spare time. if you hate it, borrow another book. repeat.
i wonder what would happen?
Introducing: My Personal Organizer
This is where I keep my schedule, calendar, plans, occasional notes, and other stuff that doesn’t belong in my journal.
I don’t have a Filofax, but my inexpensive Raymay pocket refill holder functions just as well!
The only modification I made to the organizer itself is an elastic band from Midori. This prevents the pages from getting messed up.
Inside the front cover I keep a piece of red transparent plastic. If I write in orange, the ink “disappears” whenever I put the plastic over the page. This helps me memorize important keywords.
In the zipper pocket I have some page flags. Very handy when I’m studying. Also, I keep a customizable Pentel i+ multipen in the pen loop. In it I have red (school), blue (test prep), green (other events), purple (health), and pencil (unsure) components.
I don’t have an actual dashboard, but I keep the Mandarin version of St. Francis’s Prayer inside a clear sleeve as a personal reminder to always be a decent human being.
Monthly, Weekly, and Daily spreads. Not posting my current schedule due to privacy concerns, but the format is basically the same (though I didn’t have a good color-coding system back then)
I also stick a Muji to-do list on my TODAY bookmark, so my list goes wherever the bookmark goes.
Note pages. I recently discovered how to make my own refills from B5 paper. Fold a piece of B5-sized paper into half twice, trim off 1cm from the long side while it’s still folder, punch holes, cut the paper, and you get perfect pocket-sized refills. I might trying printing on these someday.
Also yes, I’m considering applying for the exchange program after junior year. Hopefully the University of Washington? NTU College of Medicine students don’t get a lot of school choices, unfortunately, since we as professional school undergrads usually can’t enroll in courses that are directly related to our…very special majors. UW is a rare exception, and it has an excellent immunology/rheumatology program, so I’m really excited about this opportunity.
Miscellaneous pages: checklists, expenses, personal information, and my (horrifying) class schedule next semester. Since the last two are obviously pretty important, I wrote them down on notecards, punched holes, and keep them in a sheet protector.
I also like to have some Post-Its with me, as well as the Muji to-do list mentioned above. The sticky notes that came with the holder weren’t sticky at all, so I replaced them with my own. Hope you enjoyed this little tour of my planner!
Planning 101: How To Stick To Your Planning System
I have a problem.
I am inconsistent when it comes to planning, and I have loads of half-finished planners lying around either because I got a new one, or because I messed up big time on one of the pages and got disheartened. I often would go a couple of weeks without planning, and by the time I realized my mistake I just let everything slide, instead of actually dealing with the blank pages. That is not something I’m proud of, and I am trying to change my ways. So I came up with some tips and tricks that might help you and I stick to planning!
Bullet journaling: Bullet journaling, simply put, is a quick log of what you plan to do during the day. Though I have never successfully kept a “pretty” bullet journal, I regularly include bullet journal components in my planner, so I get all the benefits of bullet journaling without having to create intricate spreads for everything. I do like looking at pictures of nice bullet journals though! I just don’t have time to create them (and that’s okay)
Undated planner: I’m not sure if these are common outside Asia, but Muji does sell excellent undated planners. The appeal of undated planners comes from flexibility: if you know you’re going on vacation for a week or two, you can actually skip the dates and save the pages for when you return to your daily grind. Filling in the dates yourself is quick and easy, and not feeling like you screwed up whenever you take a break from planning actually helps you stick to the habit.
Use a personal organizer: Remember these Filofaxes? Though personal organizers are some of the most 1980 things around, they really are useful. Most personal organizers are tiny binders that hold whatever refills you put in them, so they are fully customizable. I currently use a pocket-sized 6 ring binder filled with monthly, weekly, and daily spreads, as well as cashbook, graph, and lined notepaper. If you mess up a spread, just take it out and replace it with a fresh sheet of refill paper.
Different purposes: I recommend that you use separate planners for school/work and personal stuff. Personally, I use a Hobonichi Avec Original as my reflections journal, and I plan with the personal organizer. Assigning different roles to your planners makes you more efficient, but don’t overdo it. I’ve seen people who keep a planner for absolutely everything (work planner, school planner, gardening planner, food planner, music planner, cleaning planner, dog planner, TV show planner…) and honestly I wonder how they manage to do anything else.
Go electronic: If you prefer a digitalized planning system, try out the calendar app on your phone. Oftentimes they work better than you’d expect. Another option is to start a “digital journal” on GoodNotes or some other app. I’ve seen people using it, and while I’m not a fan myself, these might work for folks who want to get creative without having to lug a planner around.
Have a routine: Set aside time to plan every night. You’ll wake up the next morning more focused and ready to work. Spend some extra time mapping out your week on Sunday nights. Make planning a priority!
Happy planning, and I hope this helped!
My stationery EDC.
These are things I almost always have with me. Though the other contents of my pencil case changes often, these end up staying.
OHTO Cut Pro 2+1 Scissors/Boxcutter
Okay so I really can’t find its actual name, but this thing is super convenient and includes a tiny pair of scissors and a tiny boxcutter in a pen-shaped package. The scissors are secured by a latch thingy so it won’t spring out and cut you.
Tombow PiT Pen-Style Glue Stick
Again, I can’t seem to find it’s actual name. This is a refillable glue stick, and despite being very delicate, the glue doesn’t seem to get smudged everywhere or randomly decompose. The blue color turns transparent upon drying.
Pentel Correction Pen
This is good old white out, and though I prefer correction tape over correction fluid (I do usually bring correction tape with me) this works better when I’m trying to fix small mistakes, especially when I’m writing Chinese or Japanese characters.
Uni Kuru Toga Pipe Slide Mechanical Pencil
This is not your average Kuru Toga. It’s rotating engine goes twice as fast, and there is this pipe-slide mechanism that protects your lead from breaking. It’s not the most comfy pencil to hold, but for comfort I have the Alpha Gel Kuru Toga.
Uni Style Fit Multi-Pens
I have two 5-color barrels filled up with 10 refills of different colors. To be frank I rarely use colors when I study, but it’s good to always have options around. The refills are easily obtainable in Taiwan. It really saves space.
Pentel Handy-line Retractable Highlighter
It’s a retractable yellow highlighter. Since I either only bring the most generic highlighter with me or lug my entire Mildliner collection around, I decided to go with this classic refillable beauty of a highlighter. If only they made one in Mildliner grey.
Pilot Juice Up Gel Pens (Blue-black and Orange)
I don’t like Juice pens because they are rattle and are often inconsistent. The Juice Up line looks better and fixes all these problems. I use orange for memorization (the red board trick!!!) and blue-black for my planner and notes.
Tombow Mono Graph Multi
When I heard about this pen I had to get it. Within the barrel are two ballpoints (red+black, but Jetstream refills fit!) and a 0.5 mechanical pencil. At the top is a high-quality twistable eraser. Not that stubby crap you get with other multis.
Miscellaneous
Ruler (mine also includes a protractor, some circle stencils, and grids, lol), 2B lead for my pencils, and a Sakura Arch foam eraser in black.
For anyone who will be studying at NTU, do you have any recommendations for stationery stores, cafes, or activities within a walking distance? :)
Of course!
Stationery:Guang-Nan (near Gongguan MRT Exit 1)JSF (on campus; located at the third floor of the Xiao-Fu building)Plain Stationery (a little boutique hidden behind Taipower building. Rare finds!)Eslite (right next to the NTU main gate. Stationery section is on the 2nd floor)There are a few near the NTU medical and public health campus/Taipei Main Station, but you’ll have to take a bus or cycle there.
Cafes: unfortunately I don’t frequent cafes, but there are like a million cafes scattered around the Gongguan area.
Activities: the best place to hang in Gongguan is the NTU campus. I guarantee. Oh, the Da-an Park (just walk along XinSheng S. Road) is pretty nice too. If you’re into religion and stuff, the area surrounding NTU has many interesting places of worship, including the Grace Baptist Church, Taipei Mosque, a Catholic Church, and a Mormon Church to name a few.溫羅汀 (the area encompassing WenZhou St, Roosevelt Rd, and TingZhou St) has a lot of interesting bookstores, most of them independent. 唐山書店(Tonshan Bookstore) is a hidden in a dark and dingy basement near Eslite NTU. It used to be, and still is, a base for (previously prosecuted) social activists and intellectuals in Taiwan. Very edgy and avant-garde. People interested in socio-political issues will enjoy it. Though I’m not sure if they have English books, simply admiring its poster-filled walls will make the visit worth it.My church, Jinan/Chinan/Chelam Presbyterian Church (so many spellings…in Chinese it’s 台灣基督長老教會濟南教會), is located downtown near NTU’s medical campus. It’s one of the oldest Protestant churches in Taiwan, and a historical site.
Ask me questions at my new blog @sherlock-study ! :D
What does "transmasculine" mean?
Transmasculine means that I identify as masculine/male-leaning but am uncomfortable with calling myself a transgender man. Personally I have no desire to transition into a “male” body, I just want to maybe one day have top surgery and be able to run around not wearing a shirt.
I was born with XX chromosomes and all the corresponding parts, but I don’t feel like I want or need a gender label. However, I see myself as more of a guy than a girl in terms of gender expression.
Thanks for giving me the chance to clear that up.
Also, most of my recent posts are now at @sherlock-study so please head over to the new crib if you’d like to see more stuff.
Thank you all for your kind messages!!!
Here I attempt to explain what has happened today and in the past week.
I think I should explain where I’m at right now. So this morning I woke up feeling a little less stiff and not dead tired. Thought the whole thing was coming to an end. When I got to school, I found out that the clinic close to my school had a rheumatologist on duty AND that 4th period was English-which I don’t have to take because I have a course waiver-so I took 3rd and 4th periods off and went to the clinic.
I took a book and a pen, because I knew there’d be a wait. I waited for nearly 2 hours, studying outside the room amongst a swarm of curious old people, then finally went in. I should’ve taken a photo, lol.
So I told the doctor about this past week: On 12/7 alone, seven blisters showed up on my fingers. They appeared after an extremely itchy spot, and are filled with clear fluid. Then my joints started to feel stiff… took off a few relay practices for this.
Then I had a few headaches that weren’t really serious. Then for three consecutive days I woke up literally feeling like shit. Whenever I took a nap, I would wake up feeling as if I had a fever.
Then I’d finish showering and find my right knee swollen and hot and hurting a bit.
My eyes would also sting/burn/itch a little if I overuse them.
bRaIne fAwG. Finally, the mouth sores. The grand fucking finale from which I thought I’ve been eluding. They are still baby sores, judging from past experience. I’ve had a lot of cankers for a long time…since toddlerhood perhaps? Large (coin-sized) flaming ulcers that on several occasions, required cauterization.
He said it was probably autoimmune and ordered a blood test. ANA, CRP, ESR and something else. Had four tubes drawn. He also prescribed a week of colchicine and plaquenil.
He didn’t tell me what he thinks I have, but I think I’ll know on Saturday. My personal guess is Behcet’s Disease. It doesn’t fit completely but it’s the closest thing I’ve come across on the Internet. The runner-ups are rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. If Behcet’s is the case, however, there will likely be no apparent abnormalities with my blood test results.
Anyway, I took colchicine+plaquenil and whoa that worked well. I mean, really fucking well. Combined with some kind of generic sports NSAID gel I feel as good as new aside from a bit of stiffness. Actually, I think I will be able to race in the 32-person relay tomorrow. I’m a pretty good runner and my class needs me.
For the time being, I am going to study. After all, there are only 47 days until the big exam!!!!!!
I can’t express how grateful I am for your kind messages,(@anaqinskywalker89 @mariamongiardo @anotherpremedblog @caffeineandpolitics, as well as multiple anons) and this post is to let you guys know that yes, I am feeling much better and am doing okay.
I also came across the spoonie community while searching for answers and find it amazing and strong, so here’s a shoutout to all of you guys current suffering from chronic illnesses. I hope you all feel fantastic tomorrow morning. I’m sending spoons your way.
Finally, thank you for reading this long-ass ranty rant personal post.
December 15, 2014.
That was the first post I made when I first got sick back in high school. 3.5 years ago I thought I had Behcet’s Disease. Yesterday the same rheumatologist told me that I have lupus.
Systemic lupus erythematosus, AKA the disease that fucked up Selena Gomez’s kidneys.
This diagnosis came after almost an entire semester of flares. That’s why I’ve been on the inactive side-managing this disease, 21 credits, procrastination, and a blog that I really want to be high-quality-has proven to be pretty difficult.
This semester, the frequency of flares have become ridiculous. I don’t think I went two or three weeks without one, and they each lasted 4 days to 2 weeks. I’ve visited my rheumatologist exactly 12 times this semester, often returning to my dorm with two needle holes in my arm-one from blood tests and one from a steroid shot. Plaquenil, prednisolone, and pentoxifylline worked their ways back into my daily med list along with sulfasalazine, levocetirizine, Inderal, and Concerta.
Finally it got too much, and I had to find out exactly what was going on, so I went to a lab on my own and asked for the Anti-dsDNA test, because I learned from my lectures and books that it is almost 100% specific for SLE, and that it was a marker for increased disease activity/severity. I had it once a couple of years ago when I got referred to a medical center, and it was negative. Fingers crossed.
Three hours after I got my blood work done, I received an email announcing that my anti-dsDNA was positive.
My first thought was “Thank God”. My second was “Fuck”.
A day later, I told my rheumatologist. After he copied the data into my records, he told me that he was just reluctant to directly tell me what I had. He said that I had to learn how to manage my illness so I can one day teach my patients how to manage theirs, and that the experience of battling lupus myself will help me become a better and more empathetic rheumatologist.
I did not anticipate this speech of his, not at all. At first my ANA was 1:40, and my labs were perfect even though I felt like shit. My parents said I was malingering, none of my friends and teachers knew about what I was going through, and my rheumatologist said I had allergies.
Lupus sounds ugly, and being a transmasculine guy I was totally against the idea of having a disease that so disproportionately affects females. I was not ready to be thrown into the world of rheumatology, the “unglamorous” subspecialty every medical student ignored. More than anything else, I was not ready to spend the rest of my life living with an unpredictable monster that, more likely than not, will play a part in how I die.
But without lupus, I would’ve never discovered the perfect specialty. Rheumatology is like a dream-you get to assess the patient as a whole, participate in the outpatient and inpatient setting treating a variety of difficult ailments, AND get to work regular hours. You get to build trusting relationships with your patients and actually become part of their lives. You have endless research opportunities ahead as medicine marches into the age of biologic treatments.
I went from an extraordinarily healthy ER physician-to-be, to a chronically ill aspiring rheumatologist. But this disease has given me a new sense of direction and taught me the importance of self-care. I think, in some mysterious way of His, God has led me to my calling.
Update.
Both sides of my Muji planner’s cover are kraft so I can’t tell if I’m on the correct side I stamped a Chronodex on the cover to act as a “this side up” kind of thing. It turned out surprisingly well!
Textbook and pinboard for the study ask! Also, I saw that you wanna be a rheumatologist and I just wanted to say that I think that's super cool ^^
Textbook: where is your favourite place to study?My favorite place to study varies! If I’m studying-studying, I prefer the library, the dorm common room, at my desk, or at a coffee shop. If I’m working on a paper or assignment, I’d probably choose my bed, haha, because pajamas and snacks!
Pin board: strange study tip that actually works for you?I actually learn better staring at a screen compared to paper. I don’t know why, but I read faster and remember more this way!
Thank you! I really love rheumatology and while I realize it’s an oddly specific and unheard-of choice, I personally have an autoimmune disease and I’d love to help people the same way my rheumatologist helped me.
pens desk & work! have a lovely day 💛
Pens: How are you going to achieve your current goal through your current degree?The current degree I’m working on is B.S. in Occupational Therapy. Though I don’t really like OT’s more…OT components, I have to admit that this major equips me with a good foundational grasp of anatomy, physiology, medicine, and a solid understanding of disabilities. Being a (broadly-speaking) medical student, I also have access to electives like pathology (which I love). I like to think that this degree is good preparation for a MD-to-be. I might even consider deferring MD matriculation to finish this degree and become a board-certified OT before restarting college as an undergraduate MD. (To become a double threat, if you will, hehe…)
Desk: Do you have a 5-year plan?Yes I do! I plan to re-enter college as a medical student (MD degrees run for 6 years and are undergrad-entry for most programs in Taiwan). And, since I have a lot of credits from OT school, I would either aim to graduate in 5 years (combining the first two years into one) or double major in Law! During my first two years of medical school, I plan to join an immunology lab at NTU to start studying autoimmune diseases and perhaps get published. Also, I would love to get more involved in student life and join/start a few clubs.
Work: If you could be at any other university/school in the world, which would it be?Two choices. The first is my current university (National Taiwan University), but I’d like to study medicine instead of occupational therapy. I’d also love to go to Harvard for an Immunology PhD! (I did apply for Harvard undergrad on a whim when I was a college freshman at NTU, but ultimately got deferred and rejected…)
School and Staedler
School: How do you make your study notes?I scan all the handouts with ScannerPro, and import them into Notability to directly write and highlight with an Apple Pencil. This is how I take notes in class. I don’t always take study notes after class, but when I do, I type out most of the content using an outline form with the Smart Keyboard, and add diagrams and illustrations/annotations if necessary. I tried writing the notes, but I have a hard time handling imperfections in my notes. Typing is way faster than writing and erasing and rewriting!I slightly prefer Notability over GoodNotes because I can basically use Notability as a word processor.
Staedtler: What is your favorite study snack and why?Gummy bears, because they are small and chewy. The perfect incentive to read another page!
hey, Jamie. Do you mind sharing your plans for the weekend? hope your day goes well xoxo
Sure! It’s Saturday morning (11:31) here, and I’ve just had brunch so I’ll start from noon.
Today from 12:00 to 22:00…I plan to1. Study group dynamics-at least read two chapters out of the four I need to read. And take notes2. Rewrite the assignments for my two translation courses3. Go over notes for neurology4. Download+organize class materials and co-notes (I wrote a post about this a while ago. Basically our entire class takes turns making the notes and everyone can study using these). (See the post here! https://sherlock-study.tumblr.com/post/169336524869/co-notes共同筆記共筆-this-is-a-collaborative)
Tomorrow from 10:00 to 20:00…I plan to1. Go to church with grandma (my parents are agnostic and don’t want me to attend service at my original church…for now. So I’ll have to make do with a closer church, the one my grandma goes to. I know it’s ridiculous and a breach of religious freedom but I’m not one to pick fights.)2. Continue with group dynamics-maybe finish reading the textbook? And take notes? Hopefully?3. Start studying OT theory. From co-notes and class handouts of course.4. Pack my stuff up and get back to the dorm. (I go home every week on Friday, and live on campus from Sunday night to Friday morning. It’s a 1.5-hour commute.)
