just for laughs.

Yet another example of how abbrievations can be the bane of medical students’ lives:

dainty dinner

On Saturday I went with Father to the Fullerton Hotel to attend a seminar on antiplatelet therapy and stroke prevention. I must admit that I was more attracted by the dinner provided after the seminar than the subject of the seminar itself. Well, I did find certain parts of the seminar quite illuminating.
