Patients I

I think it’s time for a new series of posts. Though it’s only my third term (nine more to come) I already have contact with patients on a regular basis (you remember, one neat part of the „Reformstudiengang“). Working in a doctor’s surgery once a week and having practical courses means to get to know […]

The bartender syndrome

Yesterday, the final party of the so called „Orientierungseinheit“ took place, two weeks of informations, events, meet and greet for the new freshmen. As usual, the students of the third semester (me included) host these two weeks and organize everything related. It was my task to design the corresponding brochure, to be a tutor for […]

Birthday special

Tomorrow, I will turn 22. Nothing spectacular. To „celebrate“, I‘ll stick to my to-do list. Mission accomplished, if three or more objects fulfilled:

starting the day with a big slice of self-made lemon cake
Having a huge bunch of the latest exotic type of ice cream at this new 50’s-Diner-Style ice cream parlour
learning to play „Hawaii Five-O“ […]

The first cut is the deepest

Since the students of our study called „Reformstudiengang“ don’t usually have these kind of courses quite a few volunteer for the holiday course. This year, I am one of them, roughly 20 eager students willing to dissect a corpse as far as possible. We had three […]

Musculus icannotrememberyourname

The upcoming semester starts on October 12th, only five days before my birthday. It will be tough. Very tough. Two weeks with the topic „Blood“, followed by seven (!) weeks immuology and afterwards five more weeks of sexuality and endocrinology (hormones). Actually, it’s the first time I ever learned something in advance (immunology), because I […]

Premonition 1:0 Me

Visiting Stockholm meant that I definitely had to check out the local Filippa K (read: „Ko“, as I just learned) stores. Actually, it was one of the first places we went to. I already mentioned the grey coat I saw there, the one that looked exactly like I always imagined it. The one that was […]

New experiences

Yesterday, I visited Stockholm. Only 24 hours, a mate, me and Sweden’s wonderful capital city. No time for a nap, no need for a hotel. We started out yesterday morning and arrived back in Berlin the morning after. I am still full of impressions and can’t even decide where to start: The lovely architecture of […]

Bei Semper et ubique gibt es Neuigkeiten, die du vielleicht auch schon bemerkt hast: Ab sofort geht es hier zweisprachig daher, wird jeder zukünftige Artikel sowohl in einer deutschen wie in einer englischen Fassung lesbar sein. In letzter Zeit habe ich mich mit der Entscheidung darum schwer getan.
Doch wie du sehen kannst, habe ich mich […]
