A man is looking at a portrait and says:
"Brothers and sisters, I have none. But this man's father, is my father's son."

Who is he looking at?
SpoilerYou may remember this question from a few years ago  ;) can't remember if it was before you graduated

I'm not good at being wise hahahaha

Hopefully sooner rather than later! :) We've all kinda volunteered for the opportunity (and keeping it to mods for now), so far no females have stuck their hands up, maybe bug some via PM :P

I'd be some kind of large bird, just to enjoy the different kind of view for the day. Also to poop on some people who annoy me LOL

Alrighty.

Let's start from the back: "...this man's father, is my father's son". This suggests there are three people here: man's father -> man's father's son (could be the man or his siblings) -> man's father's son's son (could be man's son, or nephews)

Then we apply: "Brothers and sisters, I have none". This means he's an only child. Therefore the three people are: man's father -> man -> man's son (can cancel out the double negative now)

Thus, he is looking at a picture of his son.

School and uni... were nearly the same :P I had 25 other lads from my school get into med, plus I knew many others from city schools (Mac.Rob, MGS, Scotch, etc.). The demographic was also familiar, a strong representation from the Asian continent :P So I felt pretty at home in all honesty haha, no problems at all with finding friends (in addition to those I was already close with) :)

As for my first day, I only really remember the morning, but I remember it vividly. It was raining, and I was running on "Indian time", which for those unaware, means I was running "fashionably late" to my first morning lecture. Of course, I had no umbrella and was decked out in shorts and a hoodie. To make matters worse, I was also thoroughly lost haha, and went to the wrong building and had to ask for instructions. So when I ended up finding the lecture theatre, not only was I 15 minutes late, I was also drenched. Safe to say, the Professor taking the lecture was less than impressed and a lecture-full of judgemental eyes followed me as I ran up to the back of the theatre. Luckily, I wasn't the only one in my predicament so I had a few people around me to have a laugh about it hahaha.

HasibA:
Few qs
Do you ever question why we as humans live and the meaning of life ? Very simply, not so much philosophical ly but more so just "why"

What are you thoughts on social phobia, anxiety, and mental illness in general, from your newfound medical experience (and perhaps , if you remember , your thoughts prior to med) ?

Final one: what are your thoughts on  comparing yourself to others ? In terms of looks, academics etx. Frivolous or something we all just do subconsciously?

Thanks heaps :) really like to read your insight :)
