Day 26th July 2009

This is a past entry while i was very very VERY busy after my convo.

We have traveled distance,to get to wear this special get-ups, the hat with a rope in yellow, funny in the sense of dangling here and there when the wind blows and slaps your face, funny garment that it poses a symbolic code elaborating our profession and the programmed day that is remembered by everyone.

The day when the happiness was put on every faces, old and young, men and women, with bouquets on their hands and laughter filled the air..all smiles that were genuine and lighthearted..

Clarrisa and Jenna..pretty!

1400, the door of the aktovy zal closed, graduands got to their sits accordingly and we all welcomed the arrival of the V.I.P's...
Many parents flew all the way from Malaysia just to witness their kids' glorious moment.

then came the speech..followed by the slide show i made ...hard work harvested..*hik*

Malaysia!

and the photos of the graduands were shown respectively ..did by an Indian who is talented in IT.

my cert in Russian, inscribed on familiar signs and stamped with seals that are mystical with symbols and mottoes.

later followed by the taking of the Oath of Hippocrates.(left-Russian, right-Greek)

translated:

I SWEAR by Apollo the physician, and Aesculapius, and Health, and All-heal, and all the gods and goddesses, that, according to my ability and judgment, I will keep this Oath and this stipulation- to reckon him who taught me this Art equally dear to me as my parents, to share my substance with him, and relieve his necessities if required; to look upon his offspring in the same footing as my own brothers, and to teach them this art, if they shall wish to learn it, without fee or stipulation; and that by precept, lecture, and every other mode of instruction, I will impart a knowledge of the Art to my own sons, and those of my teachers, and to disciples bound by a stipulation and oath according to the law of medicine, but to none others. I will follow that system of regimen which, according to my ability and judgment, I consider for the benefit of my patients, and abstain from whatever is deleterious and mischievous. I will give no deadly medicine to any one if asked, nor suggest any such counsel; and in like manner I will not give to a woman a pessary to produce abortion. With purity and with holiness I will pass my life and practice my Art. I will not cut persons laboring under the stone, but will leave this to be done by men who are practitioners of this work. Into whatever houses I enter, I will go into them for the benefit of the sick, and will abstain from every voluntary act of mischief and corruption; and, further from the seduction of females or males, of freemen and slaves. Whatever, in connection with my professional practice or not, in connection with it, I see or hear, in the life of men, which ought not to be spoken of abroad, I will not divulge, as reckoning that all such should be kept secret. While I continue to keep this Oath unviolated, may it be granted to me to enjoy life and the practice of the art, respected by all men, in all times! But should I trespass and violate this Oath, may the reverse be my lot!
