A holiday, a break and.... disaster?
Tomorrow is Men's day, a day meant to commemorate men's efforts in the war, mainly ww2 (for people who don't know what that is, get out from under ur rock, wear a shirt and start reading. A good place to start will be wikipedia.)
"Duh.... ww2?"
Anyways that just means one thing... a holiday! ^0^ (to all u feminists out there, seems fair doesn't it, since there's a women's day, there should be a men's day as well. Sexual equality what.)
However, over the weekend news suddenly popped up that the MMC (Malaysian Medical Council) now makes it compulsory for students in Russian universities to do their yearly electives (attachments in hospitals to learn practical clinical skills) in Russia itself, thus cutting short our summer break by 1 month. I only 1 thing to say to that:
However, ot's not the end of the world. People have been coming up with several good suggestions to solve this problem, such as doing the electives in winter, or doing it after class (4th years.) Here's my 2 cents::
1. Doing it in the summer will make students loathe the fact that they have to have their time in Malaysia cut short. so their heart wont be 100% in the practicals, reducing the effectiveness of the whole thing.
2. Doing it in winter gives us a way to fill the void that is the winter break, when boredom strikes. By doing it in the winter, we also get to experience both electives in Russian and Malaysia (because students who have done their electives in summer in Russia will inevitably skip them in Malaysia, due to the shortened holidays. Agreed?
Coming week the RMSA will have a talk with the dean regarding this matter. I wish them all the best, since my summer holidays rely on them now... >.<>
