Saving her form

They’re unaware as they slither through the cadaver hall in a casual, relaxed way for they dare not question their own intentions and actions with sure pertinence. These are giants of bliss, relaxation, and sometimes I wonder if they’re blessed or cursed. Maybe they have life’s number so to speak.
Advanced planners of their time. These are the architects of the future. They rewrite the whole scope of being a student doctor.
Form bows down to them or it dies.
Engulfed by their slippery slithery, this causes them to lose track of time. Before they know it, it’s thirsty minutes past the stipulated start time for dissection.
One may ask; what causes this insidious incompetence of moral corruption? Perhaps morality has nothing to do with it. Duty and responsibility may, appropriately, have all to do with it.
Up and down, lazy hands, crazy rimae oris, who is the loudest of them all?
Welcome to the story of the dissection hall of Medunsa II student behavior as I anatomize the sociology hidden within.
Although this insignificantly inflated piece of writing is constipated with criticism of unimportance, it may shed a spark to the eager or curious outsider see through the walls before making that one step which may change it all in their career wise.
The mapping out
Of how the students behave in this particular work place, is it a problem? Yes, they must maintain silence in regard of the rules and regulations, in regard to the working man in proximity and particularly because it is decent to do so as an adult. It shows a sense of direction and respectability. I personally admire these two qualities.
It has been said more than once that the cadavers of which we learn from and work with ought to be respected and treated with dignity even though we are dissecting them they’re our dead relatives, from an evolutionary perspective of course. So in this way, their behavior is not acceptable.
When you plan your things very well, your things meaning your work, you plan along the lines of time; that is, when you manage your studies regularly you become time conscious. This type of style preserves form; the so-called time table or schedule. The opposite of this lifestyle is spontaneity, like a dry leaf falling from a tree in autumn in slow motion or fast motion, no slow motion sounds better.
The implications
If you are about to understand the magnitude of this recurring event, looking at the surface will always take you for a fool. But if you scratch hard enough to see underneath the skin it may reveal part of something much bigger.
Working for almost a year for the first time in your life with cadavers can take a major toll on young and fragile mind. This situation is not complicated it is very basic; it requires the mind to perform all without any form of support.
Just in the few weeks of starting with this training, one of our fellow students had to go back to the baseline. It was too much for him.
There are articles on the internet reporting that most individuals who survived medical school will tell you of experiences the have had with depression.
All of these may mean that the students have had enough but unfortunately quitting is not in their vocabulary. These people have goals and they’ve scores to settle. Only if the university could see this coming from miles away it may be a solution to this uncalculated chain of events or pattern of behavior.
The point
This hands-on approach training is not omnipresent globally. This is not a common practice on other countries because they don’t allow students to play about with cadavers.
We’re privileged that we have this opportunity and the last thing we want is for this first-hand-on cadaver dissection taken away by the country because are underappreciated.
Without saying much further, I want to urge the students to not lose their way of proper behavior and conduct, and to also show appreciation for those meaningful tasks they undertake every month.
