attended careers forum 2003 ytd ... went to the orthopaedics and otolaryngology talks for the first half, and i decided that doctors arent exactly the most exciting people around. i actually signed up for another doctor-talk in the second half, but after my experience in the first half, i decided instead to gatecrash the power 98 talk by justin ang. not that anybody cared anyway. manz, that JA is super manz, i think he's the star of the careers forum ... he's ultra lively, humorous and really enthralled the entire LT with his talk. it juz came so naturally for him. he said that he din haf a script for the talk, and everything we were hearing was impromptu. wow ... then for the final concurrent session i went to the clinical research talk by dr martin hibberd, and got treated to 40 minutes of ear-straining as i tried as hard as i could to listen to him. his calmness is a stark contrast to JA, and we could all see that his true passion and devotion to pneumonia research is one of a kind. too bad not everyone in the audience could connect with him on that level. oh wells ...
