This Is Kye-Rectory

I never knew that i would bump (let alone to be acquainted) with people who can be more boring than Barbra Streisand. Alright, I knew that I had chosen to pursue my career in dentistry and I quickly diminished the thought that I would become one of those people or to know one. You know, the perception that people (and I) have on how boring and deadful medicine and dentistry people can get. Before even stepping into the varsity or waaaay even before packing my bag. I made an oath that I wouldnt sacrifice my grip on the fun side of life and be less lively than what I already am just because I am in this (boring) field. So off I went.

But, can you imagine how bad I wanted to scream or maybe even kill myself when some of my peers there in the varsity dont even know who the hell is Mr Donald Trump! Alright, maybe they weren’t interested in real estate management or don’t feel The Apprentice is amusing enough. But, just when I thought that worse thing couldnt hapen, it did. They didnt even know Catherine Zeta Jones or other (very) well known celebs.. my goodness. It seemed that the myth about medicine and dentistry students are in fact true.. they are not interested in anything but the books, not story books or any other kind of books but the ones regarding their studies. My Lord..give them some enlightenment..

Alright..it might not be the most dreadful thing could have happen to a living man. But it might be the one next to it, then. Megat used to complain to me too how his peers in Unimas (taking medicine) didnt have any slightest clue of who Marco Polo is. That did it. I couldnt take it any longer and this thing should stop.

All I’m suggesting is, those people who believe that they are of this case, they should be taking notice of what’s happening around them. They shoud realise (in the appropriate manner) that it’s a big world out there. When my vice chancellor complained how today’s graduates didnt have the soft skills required, I fully comprehend with her and totally support that sentiment. They just dont get it! They thought, just by learning, they are fully successful and can be known as an accomplished human..which is soooo wrong. Open up to the world, be lively and be alert and analytical of the things happening around. This would make you stand up better than anyone else.

So..regarding with those people that I’ve mentioned earlier..I think its best not to discuss about my affinity and my life with them. They won’t understand should I mention Louis Vuitton, Tom Ford, Annick Goutal, Nicole Richie, John Steinback’s ‘East of Eden’ or the inventor of shoe lace. Oh well, they are just not that into it..
