stolen colours

I have a huge Code Blue backlog, having watched only the first episode, but this post cracked me up mightily.

Code Blue Fashion Trend
For the past 9 weeks, Yamapi has worn only one wardrobe item, scrubs. According to his nikki entry #1835, scrubs are now the latest fashion craze in Japan. To order your scrubs, GO HERE. (Halloween is just around the corner!)

And fans are actually BUYING SCRUBS.

That reminds me, I have too many scrubs at home because I’m usually so tired post-call I just jump into my car in scrubs and drive home. Gotta return them tomorrow. I also recall one friend asking me to get SGH scrubs for her because she’s a violent fan of Gray’s Anatomy.

Half the people in the department jump into scrubs every moment they can, but grudgingly appear in normal working clothes on clinic days. For me, the biggest advantage of scrubs is having huge pockets. A surgical house officer would function suboptimally without his lists and tubes of gel; unique to Surgery in this hospital, a pentorch is fairly important on call as well. An orthopaedic house officer will stuff packets of sterile towels into his pockets (be they scrub pockets or back pockets of working trousers), along with Xray forms. Downside: I look about 19 years old in them.
