Hi, my name is Gustav Swart! I am a 20 year old medical student from South Africa. As of this year, 2020 I am a first year medical student in a 5 year programme, after which I will recieve a Medical and Surgical Bachelors (MBChB) the South African equivalent of an MD (in the USA) or MBBS (in the UK).
I want to begin this blog to record my journey through medical school so that I can remember all the good times. So that I can give people a peek into the world of what its like to be a medical student. To impart some of the knowledge and wisdom I have and gain through my experiences that might help other medical students and even the layperson.
I'll have funny stories, sad stories, happy stories, interesting case studies and facts as well as some lessons in the human body and what its like being a doctor!
I hope I can possibly carry this blog on into my post-graduate studies or even my life as an attending/consultant!
I hope some people will actually find some enjoymemt out of this! God Bless you all!All Rights Reserved

These are musings of mine, told as I grow through residency. I hope to share a little insight into the making of a doctor, one who still cannot believe she's been blessed with this responsibility.

BARROW ME A SHELTER by Kymorgan

-Look at me! Look at my body and don't you dare to lie and say that is normal. People look at me like I was a disease, a contagious disease who gets attached to you, like a virus, travels through your body burns your hope, range shots your dreams, massacre your faith and your mental health. A virus that makes people gossip, whisper about everything. Your clothes size, your stretched skin, the amount of fat that you carry every where you go. You don't know what Is is like to live as I do. This virus eats me alive , makes me crave and urge for food , while I have my face buried in the toilet , throwing up , eating back, exercise and control. You can't love me, you can't love something like me, ans i know. It's a nightmare that crawls up my mind in pure day light. _____________________________________ He needed to met the next sunset in hopes he would starve to death or find the end of the road to a Clift, where his body could be found at the end of the tale that was written to be his life, however his tale couldn't end there, where his fears would be transported to the next life and hunt him for eternity.forced to find a placed after escaping death, at this new journey he found the healing his body, mind, soul needed, so did she.

Life of a medical student by sAhar18

Input of medical life through the eyes of a student and the growth and process it entails... I am trying out a new style of writing. Let me know what you think!! All true stories with a mixture of humour, reflection and philosophy. If you are a fellow medical student I would LOVE to know what experiences you have had so far:)

Me Like Yuh I G-Dragon Fanfic by damon_misaki92

ranks: 1# Medical students Becoming a Cardio thoracic surgeon, is my biggest dream. Marrying my boyfriend of 6years, was another dream of mine. That got crushed in a second... A cheating boyfriend made me realise that I had to pick up my life. And start fresh again somewhere else. Which I did, I moved from New York.. back home. Seoul..South Korea. The place to be, where my best friend lives. Kim Do Hyeon..also a student, who wants to become a pediatric surgeon. Lim Anna's the name, and boys ain't the game. Meeting a mysterious guy, at a nightshop while eating Noodles. A onenightstand, led to three nightstands. Which led to a weird friendship... The rest is history. With time and Noodles... our feelings started to change for one another. But little did I know, that he wasn't just an ordinary guy. Discovering who he is, is what changed everything. Crazy fangirls, annoying siblings. Life's not that easy though.. throw in a shady cousin, crazy exes, possessive parents, shitty jobs and some drama. Just a romance story to say... #Goals to.

Evolution by andshesmiles

There are a lot of things you don't really think about until they happen to you. Take rape, for instance. I always thought, "That won't happen to me. I have a boyfriend. I trust him. He would never take advantage of me like that..." I couldn't have been more wrong. Love in this day and age is often confused for manipulation and abuse. The warning signs are here. The things we say will tell us everything that is wrong. You are worth more than what you think you are. It's not your fault. If they tell you otherwise, get out. Burn the bridge. Always remember someone is waiting for you to walk into their life. Someone needs you. Someone loves you. Getting away from all of the wrong people and finding the right ones could save you. I can promise you right now that it saved me. These are the journal entries and selected poems from my first experience of love that left a unpleasant taste in my mouth- quite literally. I am putting this out for the whole world to see because I hope everyone will learn from my experience. People can see. We have no excuses to continue living our lives in ignorance. ...WARNING... HARMFUL THEMES INCLUDING MENTION OF SUICIDE, SELF HARM, AND RAPE. THIS HAS EXPLICIT CONTENT. RECOVERY AND AWARENESS IS THE PURPOSE OF SHARING. DO NOT READ IF THESE THEMES ARE OFFENSIVE OR HARMFUL TO YOU.

Transcendence (A Muslim-Christian Story) by BintUmmi

"So you approached me without being aware of my identity?" He asks me, while raising an eyebrow. To say I was shocked would be an understatement. It takes me a while to compose myself and form a sensible reply. "Yes, I wasn't aware of your identity." "You might think you can fool me, but trust me, this has happened quite a few times before as well." He says with a very serious expression. I'm baffled by his accusation. This man has the audacity to question my intentions when he's the one trying to converse with me all along. I don't know what comes over me, but whenever I'm overwhelmed with anger, it turns into tears. And before I can compose myself, I taste the salty tears in my mouth. I take a few deep breaths, place the cup on the side table and get up to leave. "Thank you for your hospitality and your excellent assessment of my character. I will now take your leave." With that, I turn to head towards the door but he grabs my hand and pulls me towards him. Characters: Ameerah is a happy-go-lucky 23 year old who has recently graduated from med school. She is an optimist with quite a rosy view of the world. She is far from perfect. She has her faults; some she's aware of and others, not so much. She's stronger than most in some ways, weaker than many in others. Sebastian McArdle is a Consultant in General Surgery at the Royal London Hospital. He's one of the youngest and most accomplished surgeon in town. To an outsider, his life would seem perfect. He's young, handsome, successful, rich and hails from one of the most respected families in the country. But life is not always what it seems to be. He has his own set of problems. As Our Holy Qur'an states Surah An-Nisa, Verse 28: Allah desires that He should make light your burdens, and man is created weak. Follow a story of trials and errors, to finding her path to love, and to Life.

Clash Of Cultures by Malikadoc

#1 in the desi medical romance series Her lips were inches from mine and her sweet scent filled the air between us, intoxicating me. I slid my hand down her bare arm, reveling in the way her smooth, soft skin made mine tingle. We were alone in the hallway outside the ballroom and all I could think of was pushing her against the wall and crashing my lips on to hers. She had to have felt something, because she stood still in front of me, breathless, her eyes locked on to mine only to break away and wander down to my lips. =============== She was a young woman from a conservative culture trying to adjust to her new life in the West. He thought he had left that culture behind, being born and raised in the US. The tribulations of medical training bought them together. Their stubbornness and prejudice kept them apart. Join them as they travel on a journey of self-discovery and challenge themselves as much as they challenge each other. This is a medical drama and a romance story rolled in to one. It highlights the professional and personal issues an immigrant physician faces in the US, as she navigates her new work life, while finding love in the most unexpected of places. *Loosely inspired by real life events* **Patients mentioned in this story are purely fictional characters** ***This story contains some heavy themes like loss of life, mental health problems and drug abuse*** Highest ratings: #1 in desi (Sept 2022) #1 in medicalromance (June 2022, April 2024) #1 in immigration (Jan 2022) #1 in physician (Oct 2023) #2 in pediatric (Jan 2022) #6 in Muslim (Oct 2023) #6 in goodgirlbadboy (Dec 2021) #6 in culture (Jan 2023) #10 in doctor (March 2022) #12 in selfdiscovery (Jan 2022) #18 in medicine (March 2022)
