Intoduction

 Hi ! I am an Indian medical student; or in other words, I am one of those extremely foolish people who believed in the famous saying that life after NEET is gala time. 

One gives up on sleep, socializing, family time and what-not for the three hours of NEET exam. But is it really worth it ? This is a question many higher secondary students and more than them, medical students, find themselves asking.

Well, what I feel is that you don't really understand how deep a lake is until you fall into it! Sounds scary?

But another less dangerous (though less effective) way of knowing can be by asking a person who has already fallen into it once. 

Thus, this blog is for those, who are confused about whether to come to this coveted but all-consuming field of medicine. It is also for those non-medicos who are really curious about medicine or are mad at their medico friends for not catching up with them as often as they would like to, or for being the one to cancel all fun outings at the last moment giving the excuse of exams. To all those angry friends: "Sorry people, we also really want to go out with you guys, but unfortunately, we're always doomed to study or rush to clinical postings!"

Through this blog I will give you a sneak peak into the lives of these young people who are just out of school and are immediately expected by friends, family, relatives and neighbors to become great doctors all at once; to become the messiah who carries the solution to all their medical problems.  Give us time people, and we promise to find the best possible solution to your constipation or Irritable Bowel Syndrome!

After two years at med-school I agree with Dr. Glaucomflecken's famous speech at Yale where he mentioned: "Medicine is serious business, but it is also outrageously funny!!!"

Welcome to this journey through med school with me, and remember to tie your seatbelts properly because if you slip off the seat because of the tremendous pace and break a few bones, I am not qualified enough to help reduce your fractures, YET.
