Before I start, I'd like to make it clear that I don't know all the details to do with the case and my opinions are all based on what I've heard. So if you spot something that I've said which is not correct, comment and i'll make amends to this post. And this is going to be in tanglish so if you don't know tamil, i'm sorry it may not make sense.
So basic'aa oru introduction. Tamil'aa irundhukutu Delhi rape case'a pathi ungalukku theriyalanaa, where have you been?! India'va oru full nation'aa kondu vantha case, india'la pengalukku irukkura idamum avangalukku irukkura paathugaapa pathi'um yosikka vatcha oru news thaan ithu. Details'a ellaam naa solla virumbala, atha neenga google or bbc or something'la poyi paathukonga, but ellaarayum shock panni, pengal'a ippadi treat pannuraangale'nu women's rights'a oru general discussion point'aa kondu vanthichu intha news.
Oru ponnu Delhi'la oru aambalaioda kooda poga mudiyaama irukkuthu'na India'la smaller cities or villages'la irukkura pengal'oda nilamaya neengale yosichu paarunga. Evvalavo kaalathukku piragu pengal aangalukku samam'aa aaghuraanga, avungalum padikuraanga, velaiku poraanga'nu solraanga ana India evvalo advanced'a irruku'nu atha paarthu solrathu thappu. Oru ponnu'ku evalo safety, antha ponnu'ku evalo respect kudukuraanga...athu thaan india's real advances'a kaatum.
Let me be really honest, intha case evvalo thaan horrific'a irunthaalum, case'a pathi pesumbothu sila peyr sonna vishayangal thaan enna romba suurprise pannunathu. Nirbhaya'va oru bad lightla kaatanum'ne sila peyr some things sonaanga.
For example, "medical student'nu romba overaa scene potirukum, athaan ippadi nadanthathu". Enkita vanthu ipadi sonnaaru oru uncle. Medical student'naa athu bus'la erumbothu enattha scene potirukum? apadiyum scene pota kuda, athu eppadi antha men panna vishayangala justify pannum? epadi irunthaalum ava oru ponnu thaane, oru indian thaane. Avaloda padippa kaaranamaa vachu accused'ku support panna koodaathu because apadi solreenga'naa, unga solution enna-pengal'ku education koodathu'nu suggest panreengala?
Some people said "If she had dressed less provocatively it would not have happened" but naa enna solren'na, dressing sense'a change panrathu'naala onnum nadakkaporathilla. India'la evalavo pengal'a rape panraanga and avunga ellaarum 20-something-attractive-females illa. Some are children and equally some are ladies above the age of 60, ivunga ellaarum inappropriate'aa dress panraangalaa? It just goes to point out how disgusting and lacking in self-control some men are.
I have a lot more opinions on this topic, and definately intha news lifelong'la naa marakkamaaten but ellaa thoughts'um blog panna mudiyaathu. Maybe there might be some more posts like this, but it's just that I think issues like this that induce discussions need to be discussed. I'd love to hear some opinions so let me know what you think.
Until next time...

Easter Plans
14 exams I have in summer, 14! That's quite a lot for year 12. and if I go ahead with IGCSE Tamil then it'll be 15. So I plan to revise a looootttt over this easter break. I also have some work lined up (2 mornings at the GP Surgery near me and a day at specsavers).
The GP Surgery was so booked up, getting 2 mornings was the most I could do so that'll have to do. I got some work at the opticians because it is something I am considering as a 5th option. I will be visiting Bradford in July to see the Clinical Sciences and Optometry there so hopefully I can decide which will be my 5th then. When I went to talk to the manager at the opticians, she told me about how optometry is better than medicine due to shorter work hours etc but then again she is quite biased haha.
My family (excluding me and amma) are going on Holiday so that should give me 2 weeks of quiet and peace to get on with revising. I want to do as much as possible to make sure i'm ready for the exams, I regret not preparing enough last year. And I really need the As this year for most medical schools to consider me. Then after exams I have plenty of open days ahead of me and I need to start some UKCAT revision too. During summer we are off on holiday so my UKCAT will be in July. Also while i'm out in summer, i'm going to try get some work experience. And inbetween all this, I'm gonna start having driving lessons!
So a lot planned ahead, I will try to post up things after my Work experience this week and then probably after exams.

Day 3 Ultrasounds, Admin and Code Blue
Much overdue, i'm sorry!
So day 3 started with me running into the Ultrasound room late. I saw one of the Medical students earlier so I missed my doctor walk past. When I got into Ultrasound I saw many patients, a lot of different people. Some people wanted to know their baby's sex and some didn't, for some it was their first child but for others it was second or third etc. The nurses did a lot of helping so it was useful to see how important they are. Watching the baby's organs was interesting and it made me realise how important technology is in areas like prenatal medicine. After half a day doing this, I was taken to do some admin. I arranged envelopes. It was dull but it has to be done. I met the male medical student who said he'd enjoyed the past 2 days and that he couldn't think of anything he'd done that would put him off medicine-it was good to hear! I later went to the labour ward where I met the other medical student. She had seen 2 C-sections that day and was telling me about them. There was a code blue which meant the mother in theatre was bleeding so a lot of blood was being carried up and down the corridors. I just sat there addressing envelopes, but I learnt a bit about issuing NHS numbers to newborns.
That was the end of my 3 days. I really enjoyed, I didn't expect it to be so good. It's helped me decide that medicine is definitely what I want to do. :)
