Name

Officially I have gone through the whole curriculum, from the basic anatomy and physiology in year 1, to the philosophy from our dearest oncologist in year 5.

There are two people whose name who I can never forget.

The first one is CK. As you all know, she is my senior. Her commitment towards this profession is unshakable. Before the start of the year 1, she taught me what is devotion by her act. On one gathering, she would ride a bicycle (despite that she never know how to) so that  the group could have fun. I still remembered how she rode on the bicycle with two assisted wheels. You might think its easy, but for a novice, the bicycle was always shaking when you were on it. How on earth someone who decided to have a activity which she never knew or love? It was because she loved to gather the people she knew and cared about. She wanted to see us to make us good medical students. That is all.

Her Chinese name is 嘉明. 嘉者,讚許也。明者,亮也。 The beauty is the simplicity as well as the meaning underneath. People says your name is the description of your character. I have to say that her Chinese name is the best to describe her life: the praise of the light in our world.

The other one is our dearest oncologist SF. Being loved by so many seniors and my classmates, his teaching in the oncology module has been inspirational in many years. In the end of every tutorial, he would ask if there is anything new. His expected answer is no: indeed everything he taught nothing new in terms of textbook knowledge, on the contrary, he taught us how to integrate what we have learnt in these years, making them a memorable knowledge instead of forgettable information. His way of teaching is excellent.

He is being something more. In the end of the module, he told us stories about the ups and downs of people these years. He told us how bad the situation of our ecology has been, talking about the devils and the hells. Some could feel the pain from this speech. But, he decided to turn our mind again, saying that when the sky is dark the stars will be brighter. Whenever there is struggle, the opportunity comes up.

He loves to teach, hoping to see his students to become the light and salt of the world every year.

His name is 承暉. The continuation of the sunlight. Again, it is the best name to describe his life. Nothing less, nothing more.

With their inspirations, I am committed to make the best to become the doctor for the rest of my life.
