Aha, the 10-year combat with the Darklord finally comes to an end!

In actual fact, I ain't particularly urged to watch this one, but afterall the Harry Potter series grew as I grew, it feels like a more or less routine activity. With a lucky off-work Sunday, lets go finish Voldemort with the ultimate strike!

As with the last one, two hours was simply too short for a complete smooth-flowing story to be told. When we cannot ask too much for

The first week of houseman ship passed, starting in oncology ward is simply wonderful.

Some may reckon oncology as a team full of tears and sadness, yes I agree most of the in-patient care centres on palliative (aim not for cure) work, but still most of the patients here are still striving to live, coping quite well with their cancer cells - firm and strong.

For all these years, I was once stereotyped that a doctor's job was to CURE. But soon I finally realise,

When it comes to accessing the effacacy of prayer, it amazes me how serious people can take this as an issue.


Searching on the web, it's not difficult to see scholars (mostly in the west) try and perform well-structured studies and trials to examine the "prayer effect". To us, as taught in Bible, praying is not merely asking for interventions, we praise, we confess we communicate.

Even among intervention, it would be hard for us to even falsify the very statement "

Sincerely I appreciate the reply from Breakthrough, I can see wholeheartedness and encouraging thoughts in it.

Let me prime a little bit more on this very question I brought about.

It was few months back, when I was still a busy medical student burying myself in piles of books preparing for exams.

While in one night, when I saw a HUGE acne grew right on my forehead, a thought raced through my mind: Why dont I pray for its healing? Even though I don't believe it will disappear out

Here comes the reply.

親愛的James：

多謝你也來信問及禱告和醫治。事實上，近年來有不少人在佈道會中分享他們禱告醫治的經歷。可是，我們如何得知，上帝聽到我們的禱

Well I guess most of you have heard of Breakthrough - the Christian NGO which devotes itself for teenage work. I am quite a personal fan of theirs, and some months ago I posted a theological question on their website, I didn't hope for a reply, but then, though late, here it was posted on their wall.

This is what I asked, I shall post their reply in the next post.

Oh yes I am back!

I must say that the final MB was like a marathon - you keep running running and running and seemed the race would never end. Finally we made it - and luckily unlike the poor Pheidippides I survived! Why dont we start again by sharing an old classy local film in 1999, 「暗戰」 by 杜琪峰.



Indeed, somehow I missed this wonderful piece throughout all these years, only when my old friends and I enjoyed the its extension 「暗戰

*Dear all

I apologize for the infrequent updates, I am about to have my final exam (finally) very soon, and I shall really focus on my studies in the subsequent weeks, and I promise after this short pause I shall re-vitalise this

Phew finally got a half-day off after the stuporizing anaesthesia module, I must say my mind has changed towards this seemingly-boring specialty, it wasnt that bad as such, and the beauty of human physiology was enlightening, still I prefer seeing awake patients than putting them asleep every day.

Probably stimulated by the two-week intensive basic biophysic course, I (unbelievably) spent my day standing in The Commercial Press, reading a short book on - you might not believe either - the Big Bang theory.

And

I am amused by the recent newspaper headlines.

I won't deny, going through personal life of billionaires is entirely entertaining; from the stunning Fengshui probate to the soap opera from Royal family of Republic of Gamble, moving on to oversea triplets from donated ovum, and now, the breakup of the century. Sometimes reading through the papers is like flipping over a novel (or fiction if you wish), on a second thought - all these have definitely zero impact on our lives, why go headlines?

Oh,
