Di sinilah titik kasih ditemukan, di sini jua aku curah segala.
Five years ago, I was still innocent and barely understand dirty jokes circulated around me. Purely seen, the guys were very expert in these stuffs. It was some what scary to understand them, thus I preferred to remain blurred. But later I found it rather difficult to cope up with the group when stuffs like this were brought up into conversation.
I slowly accepted their way of joking and conversing. Yes. There are six men in my family but I hardly could listen to any dirty jokes out of them when my sister and I were around. Probably this is how they show their respect towards us. When it comes to friends, we are prone to be more open and that’s what I got in this very open friendship.
I’m sure you understand this more than I do. But could you ever imagine people talk about some medical stuffs and come to relate it with some dirty jokes? Yes! The medical students can do it.
During our Anatomy class on Brain and Nervous System (Fuh, it sounds heavy for a final year student. I really have to revise The Human Anatomy again!), I am used to memorize the 12 cranial nerves’ names using this mnemonic: On Old Olympus’ towering top, a Finn and German viewed a hop. The first letter in each word brings the same first letter for the 12 cranial nerves accordingly. I found this tips in the atlas provided by the library. Somehow a week later, I found out that the whole batch was using another mnemonic which was rather funny and easy. Here it goes:
Oh, oh, oh! To touch and feel a girl’s vagina… Ah, heaven!
It’s easier to memorize when it’s more real and by-nature in our life though it’s some kind of dirty joke. Well, people said, if there is something that can benefit you, why don’t you try it. And since then, I use this handy-dandy dirty mnemonic in my study. Haha. And yes, people said, if we blend up the goods and the bads in term of study, we tend to forget faster. The ‘ilmu is not blessed. Ironically, I (we all medical students!) still keep this mnemonic in memory better than the ‘on Old Olympus’!
Dirty jokes do work to balance our mind, sometimes. But don’t overload your head with such over-dirty jokes. It’s dangerous. At times, we do have to be pious, don’t we? Hehe.
Note 1: The 12 cranial nerves’ mnemonic stands for: Olfactory, Optic, Oculomotor, Trochlear, Trigeminal, Abducens, Facial, Auditory (Vestibulocochlear), Glossopharyngeal, Vagus, Accessory, Hypoglossal. It was written in a novel by (sorry, I forgot his name). A few novelholics in my batch commercialized it for Anatomy. I guess it is used everywhere. Who remember the author’s name (and the novel), please leave a comment. I can’t recall it anymore.
Note 2: I’m not being sarcastic. This is just a part of our life in med school. Haha. Jadi, sila bersihkan otak masing-masing selepas membaca entri ini =p
Note 3: This entry reminds me of a film somewhere in 2007: Perfume.
Note 4: I think I’ve lost 2 kg due to over exhausting weekend. I want more! Huhu. But seriously, I lost weight. My weekend seems neverendingly busy till we hit New Year here.

aku ada kepelikan sbg seorg lelaki yg sejati. haha!. iaitu aku suka cerita2 dn gurauan2 lucu. tp bila jika melibatkan unsur2 lucah, aku akan segera tarik diri.. ðŸ™
begitu juga kalau perkataan yg double triple meaning, cepat2 je jiwa menolak. hehe
Sarah Mohd Shukor says on December 15th, 2008 at 5:49 am :
Macam tu la yang sepatutnya cikgu. Untuk saya, this is the only thing that I can tolerate, kot. Huhu. Kalau la cikgu tau macam mana life saya kat sini, aduhai, saya jamin cikgu kagum dengan keluhuran nurani saya. Huhuhu =p Adoi. Saya rasa nak gelak sungguh ni.
Sebenarnya cikgu, mnemonic yang ni ada ditulis dalam sebuah novel. Tapi serius saya dah lupa siapa nama penulis dan tajuk novel tu. Dari situ la budak2 ni dapat idea pasal ni.
atiqah says on December 15th, 2008 at 6:02 am :
dulu2 masa kat asrama warden jual buku rujukan yang senior2 buang. kami pun membeli dengan suka hati sebab murah. ada yang dpt buku senior lelaki, dan hampir semua mnemonic rumus fizik dalam itu berunsur 18 sx!tp benarlah mcm ks kata, mudah betul nak igt.berkat atau tak?hurm..
Erm. Ni Atiqah Asbi ke? Hehe. Just guessing. Erm. KS rasa jawapan yang paling tepat mungkin sebab ni fitrah mereka? Hehe.
fez says on December 15th, 2008 at 7:44 am :
Oh x sangka pula sampai macam tu dia punya mnemonic. (siapalah orang 1st yang meciptanya)..I used to use.. Oh oh oh to touch a fresh and green vegetable.. aaa hhhh…
10x ganda suci mnemonic ni kan..
cikgu jawe says on December 15th, 2008 at 7:59 am :
sbnrnya teknik mengingat tu byk cara. tp aku lbh suka ‘menghayati’ sesuatu subjek utk mengingat fakta. teknik yg sesuai utk otak kiri mcm aku. :)[otak kiri ke?. tk ingat =p]
sesekali teknik cara 18sx blh kot utk ingat fakta. tp tak blh le selalu. sgt bahaya kpd remaja.. hehe
teringat dulu masa ambil stpm, teks sulalatus salatin aku khatam 7 kali baca!. haaa.. kan aku dh kata, aku suka menghayati subjek. hihi..
dn teringat bila ustaz ajar subjek munakahat. semua mata jd segar. yg pompuan konon2 malu. =p
one says on December 15th, 2008 at 8:05 am :
hehehe..mata CJ siap terbeliak time tuh kan..kan
seb baik tak lulus amik kelas sains dulu2..ha3
dila says on December 15th, 2008 at 8:13 am :
Selamat pagi! [erk kat sana pagi jugak ke sekarang? hihi]
Mmmm…Nak share sesuatu tadi, tapi dah lupa. Short term memory betul. Ni nak kena buat mnemonic jugak ke. Ishk ishk ishk.
Takpelah. Nanti dah ingat, dla datang lagi, hehe. Have a nice day, Kak Sarah!
Inah says on December 15th, 2008 at 12:10 pm :
hello there sarah 🙂
kita ade pelbagai cara untuk mengingati sesuatu..ikutlah cara bagaimana asalkan kita berjaya ingat 🙂
We come out with
interfasa, profasa, metafasa, anafasa and telofasa 🙂
lots of other things..but i tries using cheeky stuff 🙂
skrg ni..akak kena banyak ingat benda but soon i learnt that i have to understand the concept..then i’ll memorize it easily
nono says on December 15th, 2008 at 12:24 pm :
Haha! Kelakar.. Biasalah tu, kena tau teknik nak survive dalam belajar nie. And perlu jadi kreatif sedikit so that the learning process tu akan jadi lebih fun.
acai says on December 15th, 2008 at 5:58 pm :
hehehe, kalau benda tu dapat membantu mengingat satu benda yang baik rasanya tak menjadi satu kesalahan asalkan ianya tak melampaukan sarah,hehe..acai dari dulu guna benda2 camtu nak ingat,hehe..maksudnya cari satu perkara yang lawak utk digabungkan ngan fakta..dan yup, memang berkesan..nasib acai bukan jenis subjek yg kena hafal sangat,hehe..byk calculation je..
Nadia Yuna says on December 15th, 2008 at 5:59 pm :
heh. kelabu dah mata ni =p
Dalam nadia membaca, "On Old Olympus' towering top, a Finn and German viewed a hop" Mengapakah ayat ini yg tertangkap di mata? wahhh. mengade2nye saye =p
sbg bakal kaunselor, ade juga silibus ni di ajar dalam psikologi pendidikan. humm, banyak cara untuk mengingat ni, ade kaedah nombor, akronim, akrostik, gune kaedah bunyi seakan, gune gambar, gune bende kite suka. Pilih yang mana kita selesa & senang ingat. Insyaallah. boleh =)
huhu. sarah dengan baik hatinya telah memberi saya idea perancangan praktikum ni, ok juge kalau saya buat ceramah kemahiran belajar, fokusnya kemahiran mengingat. heheh. kan kan kan?
** tak suka teknik 18sx tu. Tapi masa form 3 cikgu sains saya ade kasi teknik 18sx tu untuk hapal. masa tu hapal je la. Bile ingat skrg.. eiiiuuuuuu. wek wek wekkk
Nadia Yuna says on December 15th, 2008 at 6:00 pm :
Adoiiiii, panjangnye saye komen. =p
Sarah Mohd Shukor says on December 15th, 2008 at 7:16 pm :
Ini optional. Terpulang pada masing2 nak cipta dan guna yang mana pun. Mnemonic yang ni cicipta oleh penulis tu dan digunakan oleh beberapa doktor yang ada dalam novel tu. Tapi KS dah lupa tajuknya.
Terpulang la cikgu nak fikir apa. Setiap orang ada cara masing2. Plus, saya tak kata pun benda2 macam ni ‘selalu’ digunakan. Apa yang ada ni pun digunapakai semula daripada novel tu je.
Bukan budak Sains je guna benda2 kotor. Budak aliran lain pun sama. Kalau dah lelaki, apa2pun mesti ada kaitan dgn hal ni. Saya tak maksudkan semua tyapi kebanyakannya.
Sarah Mohd Shukor says on December 15th, 2008 at 7:20 pm :
Saya pun macam ni jugak. Saya akan fahamkan semuanya dulu and from there saya boleh ingat. Waktu tu mnemonic dah tak perlu dah kan. Macam kes Bacterial Endocarditis. Mnemonic untuk cover topic ni ialah FROM JANE. Dulu mmg rasa aduhai banyaknya benda. Tapi kalau dah faham the whole thing about BE, mnemonic tu dah tak penting sgt dah. Hehe.
Betul2. Macam tu la. Cuma biasanya kita tengok budak perempuan elok sikit la benda2 yg direka utk bagi ingat. Tapi kalau budak laki, aduh, mengucap je bila kita pinjam nak tengok. Huhu.
JiDiN says on December 15th, 2008 at 7:28 pm :
manusia ni memang pelbagai karenah…dan setiap orang ada cara tersendiri….pilihan kita ialah samada nak guna cara yg betul atau dengan cara yang salah…pilihan terletak pada iman masing-masing….
Sarah Mohd Shukor says on December 15th, 2008 at 8:25 pm :
Secara terang-terangan, yang saya nampak tak la melampau. Bagi saya, macam normal la tengok budak2 laki ni cakap ntah apa2 je. Huhu. Tapi kalau bab2 belajar ni, kat belakang saya tak pasti la apa caranya diorang nak menghafal semua ni. Tapi setakat yang saya tahu, insya Allah memang ok je. Erm. Awak dulu mcm mana la ye Acai. XD
Ye cikgu. Hehe. Macam yang awak sebut tu, memang ada banyak teknik nak merumuskan sesuatu kan. Bagi saya orang yang pandai cipta mnemonic ni memang kreatif. Sebab dia berjaya meringkaskan otak dia jadi satu cerita pendek. Ewah2. Teringat Germany la tu =p Saya penah cite kat awak kan macam mana life saya kat sini. So, yang betul2 tau saya camne mesti dah faham yang mana saya buat, yang mana saya tak buat. Just happened to be that this 1 is extra special. Satu dunia guna. Huhu.
Tapi saya tak sampai mengatakan yang menggunakan kaedah ni semua kurang iman mereka. Luaran tak menzahirkan yang di dalam. Tapi saya faham apa yang awak maksudkan.
NoktahHitam says on December 15th, 2008 at 9:27 pm :
Rather than using some weird, funny or obscene text, I prefer the basic alphabet. OOOTTAFAGVOH, it’s already like “OH! The FU*K! Voyeur!”
Oh well, everyone has their methodology. If it works, why not? Hm.. berkat kah?
kaklong says on December 15th, 2008 at 9:45 pm :
nanti bleh la ek kaklong apply to my students… mesti depa akan ingat kaklong sampai bile2.. hahaha untuk dak2 yg mmg dh blue tu, kite leh pakai reverse psychology.. izit rite sis?=)
btw, dh lame x drop comment here.. esok tau posting.. debau seh..
Ainul Arina Madhiah says on December 15th, 2008 at 9:59 pm :
wohoo.. dari dulu asyik dengar orang guna kaedah ni.. kadang2 ada penceramah motivasi datang diajarnyer guna kaedah nih.. malu…*-*.. tapi kalau ainul, ainul suka buat gambaran yang tak logik termasuklah memasukkan kawan-kawan punya nama dlm nemonik tu.. sng sket ingat. itu yang kadang2 bila nampak orang-orang yang dah masuk list nemonik, kita tergelak sorang2 sambil teringat balik benda yang dihafal tu.. hoho~
Sarah Mohd Shukor says on December 15th, 2008 at 10:22 pm :
Ha. Proven once again. Guys tend to think in such a way. Hehe. Erm. We just play around with the words but we don’t intend to act like one. Kalau macam tu, ok tak?
Awak jangan guna nanti. Tak elok tau. Huhu. Esok ke tau posting? Nak call awak ni tapi simcard untuk call tu still ada pada kawan.
Apa la jadi pada nama kawan2 kamu ye. KS hanya terguna nama kawan2 waktu tengah bermain dengan nombor. Macam2 jadinya cerita yang keluar yang kadang tu hanya dari satu nombor telefon je =p
N a b i L says on December 16th, 2008 at 1:03 am :
ehem ehem..the only dirty mnemonic that I have is that 12 cranial nerves, cume slightly different je than KS punye.It was taught by my lecturer an Orthopaedic surgeon to me.And of course sampai skrg terlekat kat otak.But cant help it la.We need mnenomics to survive anatomy.Ada satu buku anatomy yg pnuh dgn mnemonics suci but forgot the title.Oh ye, nk jadi surgeon kena hustler anatomy so no choice for u la KS
NoktahHitam says on December 16th, 2008 at 4:17 am :
You know there’s a famous saying, “Guy’s think about sex every 3 secs.” I guess it’s true after all. (Am I supporting this notion? I have to idea 😛 )
Sarah Mohd Shukor says on December 16th, 2008 at 5:27 am :
Proven! I know what’s the difference. At the last 2 words, am I right? Hehe. See. My theory was correct. This mnemonic is used all over the world. Except for non-English spoken countries like Japan and Korea (maybe). Oh. I tell you what. Saya dah habis revised Anatomy semula for State Exam. Except Nervous System (u know that we study system by system over here). Nabil, all the listed specializations u mentioned in the previous entry were once suggested by my doc. One thing is sure. Everything is related to surgery. Do I look like one? =D
Don’t worry. You are normal then =D
NoktahHitam says on December 16th, 2008 at 7:28 am :
Gosh, my lefty is killing me.
cAMP- PKA – PK – glycogen breakdown!
CAMPAK PIKIR. so pandai2 lah sendiri. I know first year nye materials, peanuts je for you.
Sarah Mohd Shukor says on December 16th, 2008 at 7:55 am :
Ok ok. Oh no. You know that Biochemistry stuff?? Hat’s off to you man.
djambu puadovich says on December 16th, 2008 at 2:20 pm :
whoa…ni ilmu baru ni…:P
NoktahHitam says on December 16th, 2008 at 6:26 pm :
Oh no. I was granted access to Nottingham’s Medical resources. Learned a few things or two
Sarah Mohd Shukor says on December 17th, 2008 at 12:02 am :
Eh, awak tak tau ke? Ke buat2 tak tau. Hehe =p
Oh gitu ke. Bak balik topi. Hehe. No. At least, rajin jugak awak bukak belek2 pasal ni ye.
N a b i L says on December 17th, 2008 at 12:32 am :
One thing kan Sarah, I dont know why people particularly in Msia kita ni see Surgery is more glamour and harder compared to Medical.In actual fact, Surgery is the easiest(thru my observationla) in terms of its history taking,workload,differential diagnosis.The diseases are also straightforward.You cut,you suture them back then the disease is cured.Tak mcm medical where u have a long list of differentials and the treatment is tricky.Ramai terpengaruh dgn cerita Hollywood sebenarnye.My two cents =)
Apa pendapat KS pulak?
