1st Day in Dissection Class: As 1st yr MBBS student, there is always this curiosity among students to find out, how the dissection of a dead body would be... So there was it, Our 1st day in dissection class, As we entered the room there were like 4 tables wid dead bodies, n the room stinking wid pungent odour of formalin , in which the bodies r usually kept to prevent decaying. As i moved forward towards the body on the 2nd table, it really freaked me out to see a actual dead human body in front of us.
Suddenly i heard a loud thud. I took a look behind , i saw a gal lying down, she fainted seeing the dead bodies. Seein her many other gals also started feeling nauseating and dizzy.. I told my friend bravely, wht jerks... but frankly even i was not feeling well, put up a brave face in front of every1.
K back to dissection. Our sir told us to read our dissection manual n start dissection of chest. A classmate of mine took a scapel, n just gave a bold nick in the centre of chest, just as he gave a incision, few gals were like ....ufffffffff as if hes alive n it will hurt him.... at times gals r really nuts... well thts a different topic. will discuss tht in detail in a different topic....
So began wid the dissection,was fun as i gave a few incision,already started gettin a feeling of a surgeon, but it was really short lived , as my professor yelled at me at so loudly as if ive ran wid his daughter.. but actually i accidentally cut a muscle about which we were supposed to learn for tht day, So i totally spoiled it.. sumetime l8r i came down to reality tht im just a 1st mbbs student.... Well, in the end, we had a short lecture bout structures dissected tht day, which no1 cud see, thanks to me...
As the days passed by started getting confidence in dissection, and all the apprehension was gone..... Sumtimes, we used to play pranks wid gals , by putting a part of skin or muscle or ny part of the dead body inside ny gals' apron pocket, tht was really funny.... they used to freak out in the usual manner, n there we had our mission accomplished , having sum fun in a boring class!!!!!
