For yourself, medicine student.

Remember that you are not defined by a number. You are defined by what you have overcome and what you are enduring. A grade is not important, if you have not learned for your patients. You will treat people, not exams. Learn for them and study for them. They need the best out of you.

When and if you are tired, you are allowed to take a break, whether it be at 10 pm when you dont want to open that cardiology book, at 2 pm when class was difficult to understand or at 4 am when you are running tests on a patient. Take a moment to breathe, and go back to giving your all.

Do not compare yourself to other people or students, you are you and you are amazing. Do not diminish all that you do and all that you have done, because I have seen you work hard. Your only competition is yourself, you are working hard to become a better you.

Remember the reasons why you chose this path and why you started in the first place. I risk to say that beyond choosing this carreer because of the great challenge that it implied, you chose Medicine because of your desire to help another in need and your neverending fascination. with the human body and its art.

Continue working slowly but steadily. Love what you do. Give your best always.

BugsFeed: 4 bacteria that forgot how to bacteria

1. Mycoplasma - They are devoid of cell walls.

Yup. They lack cell wall precursors like muramic acid. No fixed shape or size. You could easily mistake mycoplasma for a virus, they even pass through bacterial filters! 2. Actinomycetes - They look like fungi!

I mean, the only reason we consider it as a bacteria is because it contains muramic acid in it’s cell wall. Otherwise, those branching filaments scream the word, fungi! 3. Chlamydiae - Obligate intracellular parasite. Are you a virus? 

They fail to grow in cell free media, they get filtered in bacterial filters. Why are you called a bacteria, anyway? Well, they do have DNA, RNA, ribosomes and replicate by binary fission.. So let’s count the poor energy parasite as a bacteria. 4. Mycobacteria - Here’s another rod shaped bacteria that sometimes shows filamentous forms resembling fungal mycelium.

So let’s call it ‘mycobacteria’, you know, fungus like bacteria! Unlike you regular gram positive and gram negative bacteria, they are acid fast. Related posts: Cell wall of gram positive and gram negative bacteria mnemonic Mycobacterial biochemical reactions mnemonic
