咩係起跑點

好多人唔明「起跑點」係邊!「起跑點」係出生背景,父母自身正確理念。以為去下 play group,參加咩課外活動就可以提升「起跑點」?咁同果啲唔知乜頭乜路,又冇考察又冇計劃就嚟香港生仔,要個細露一條友做香港人有咩分別?提升「起跑點」重點唔係個細露,係家長呀,矇丙!

最唔鐘意啲自由行xxx

A「我最唔鐘意啲自由行打尖!」
B「我最唔鐘意啲自由行野蠻!」
C「我最唔鐘意啲自由行四圍踎!」
我「我最唔鐘意啲自由行!講完。」
D「不過你真係不得不服咗佢哋啲 fashion。」
我「嘩!真係呢,McQueen 都唸唔出咁嘅配答。」
D「LadyGaga 都著唔出咁嘅韻味!」

捱過未

上一代最鐘意用呢句「你都未捱過」。好似「捱過」等同「得獎」。「捱過」唔等如「捱得」。「捱過」唔係一種成就。冇啦啦做咩要捱?天橋底嘅夠日日捱啦,咁又點?
我認為年輕人應該明白咩係「自食其力」!唔好咁多依賴同老奉。做到、識做、應做,都應該自己去做。唔識就學下。唔好未做就 say no 。

自己當醫生

並唔係因為你去睇醫生先有病。唔去睇醫生亦唔見得唔會死。唔好再比藉口自己有事都唔去睇醫生啦!面對現實會快啲好,好快啲!唔好等到末期,冇得醫,現後就話『係咪呢!我都話睇嚟冇用架啦!』嚟自我實現預言!攞自己條命證明自己嘅所謂先知。其實只係逃避!

輸贏

輸嘅條件係未做就話輸!
贏唔係因為自以為會贏,而係會去搵贏嘅路!

To Take Or Not To Take Birth Control (Contraceptive) Pills

Talking to my friend about the persistence of HPV because I am still in precancerous stage after LLETZ and hysterectomy -- VaIN1. One of the reason that I highly suspect is the 20 years consumption of birth control pills. She questioned that the pills was not as safe as doctors have claimed. Let me put it this way, with all the knowledge I have now and go back in time, would I have given up the pills? Answer is NO. But I would have done something else.

First, VaIN is rare! So rare that even collecting all VaIN patients data couldn't form a valid statistic (yet).

Second, there is no proof. I suspect it only due to non-existence of all other possible factors in my case.
(See "3. Which cancers are caused by HPVs?" in
http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/Risk/HPV
and "6. How do oral contraceptives affect cervical cancer risk?" in
http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/Risk/oral-contraceptives)

Third, not everyone will get high-risked HPV. There are vaccines, pap smear test to prevent and detect the infection. There are many treatments for removing progressed HPV infection. In most cases, patients will get it removed once detected the CIN progressed from 1 to 2. In my case, I didn't see a gyno nor do the test since 1998. By the time CIN2 was detected on 2010, the CIN2 might have been with me for a few years already. I might also be able to stop the progression once I knew of the vaccine by visiting a gyno.

So why should anyone give up pills and suffer from the problems they ARE ALREADY having for something that MIGHT NOT happen? Remember, even if it happens, there are methods of tackling it.

沒有你,太平靜。你來過,戚戚然。雲來風去冥冥中。愛過恨過,不枉過!
