Some of you are bringing your whole families to the grocery store. Three kids and a spouse following behind you like puppies, contributing nothing, clogging the aisles

Unforgettable World Cup stories:

🇺🇾 Uruguay (2010)
🇨🇷 Costa Rica (2014)
🇭🇷 Croatia (2018)
🇲🇦 Morocco (2022)
🇨🇻 Cape Verde (2026)

Some teams don’t need to lift the trophy to win the world’s respect.

[SethOfficial @UTD_Seth001]

🚨 David Beckham on Cape Verde’s elimination after pushing Argentina to extra time in the FIFA World Cup:

🗣️ “This is the cruelest side of football. Cape Verde have been eliminated, but they leave this tournament with something far more important than just a scoreline—they leave with the respect of the entire football world. They took the defending world champions all the way into extra time and made Argentina fight for every single minute. Nobody expected that before kick-off.

When I think about this performance, I think about Vozinha first. His saves kept Cape Verde alive when many teams would have collapsed. Then you have Deroy Duarte and Sydney Lopes, two players who will forever be remembered in their country’s football history. They scored against Argentina, they believed when so many people doubted them, and they gave millions of Cape Verdeans a night they will never forget.

People will only remember that Argentina qualified, but those who truly understand football will remember how close Cape Verde came to creating one of the greatest upsets in World Cup history. They never hid, they never stopped running, and they never accepted that they were supposed to lose. Every challenge, every tackle, every attack showed a team playing with pride, courage, and absolute belief.

This is not a story of failure. This is a story of a nation announcing itself to the football world. Cape Verde arrived at this World Cup as outsiders, but they leave having proven they belong on the biggest stage. They stretched the world champions to their absolute limit, forced them into extra time, and made them earn every second of their qualification.

Football can be incredibly unfair. Sometimes the team that captures the hearts of everyone watching is not the team that advances. But no whistle can erase what Cape Verde have achieved. Vozinha, Deroy Duarte, Sydney Lopes, and every player wearing that shirt have inspired a generation. Argentina continue their journey, but Cape Verde leave this World Cup as heroes.”

[CAF @CAF_Online]

You showed the world who Cape Verde really is.
Thank you for everything. Forever proud. 🇨🇻💙

Unbeaten in 90 minutes at your maiden world cup and this is who you faced??!!

Cabo Verde, they will never forget you!

When I started Pharmacology, I thought it was just about drugs.

My ignorance deserved an award. 😂💔

I was there thinking,

"You memorize the drug name, what it's used for, maybe the dose... and you're done."

Pharmacology looked me in the eye and laughed. 😭😂

The first lecture started.

Mechanism of action.

Pharmacokinetics.

Pharmacodynamics.

Absorption.

Distribution.

Metabolism.

Excretion.

Before the drug even reaches the patient, it has already traveled more than I have this year. 😂💔

Then they introduced receptors.

Alpha receptors.

Beta receptors.

Muscarinic receptors.

Nicotinic receptors.

Dopamine receptors.

Serotonin receptors.

Histamine receptors.

Every drug seems to have a favorite receptor and an ex it refuses to bind to. 😭😂

Just when you finally memorize one drug...

Pharmacology says,

"Now let's discuss drugs in the same class."

One drug.

Ten cousins.

Each with a different indication.

Different contraindications.

Different adverse effects.

Different interactions.

And somehow...

Almost the same name. 😂💔

Gentamicin.

Amikacin.

Tobramycin.

Netilmicin.

At some point I stopped reading medicine and started reading baby names. 😭😂

Then comes adverse effects.

You finally learn what a drug treats...

Only to discover it can also damage the liver, kidneys, ears, heart, bone marrow, and your peace of mind. 😂💔

Every lecture ends with,

"Remember this side effect. It's very important."

By the end of the semester, every drug has about 37 side effects and somehow the examiner expects you to remember all of them. 😭😂

Then drug interactions arrive.

Drug A increases Drug B.

Drug C decreases Drug D.

Drug E must never be given with Drug F.

Drug G should be taken before food.

Drug H after food.

Drug I without food.

At this point, even the drugs need relationship counseling. 😂💔

Exam period is where Pharmacology becomes spiritual.

Question:

"State four mechanisms of action of fluoroquinolones."

My brain:

"This drug is used to treat... something." 😭😂

The answers were inside my head.

Unfortunately, they were undergoing first-pass metabolism.

Only a tiny fraction reached the exam booklet. 😂💔

Then you leave the exam hall.

Suddenly every mechanism returns.

Every side effect.

Every interaction.

Even the ones that weren't asked.

Apparently, the knowledge had excellent bioavailability.

It simply refused to cross the blood-brain barrier during the exam. 😭😂

That's when I realized Pharmacology isn't just about drugs.

It's about remembering enough information to make Google feel unemployed.

Pharmacology taught me that the real adverse effect wasn't the drugs...

It was studying them. 😂💔

shyness is a manifestation of psychological wounds that stem from childhood experiences & generational patterns. if you don't heal these wounds, you'll be shy for life. it's mainly the self expression wound, the shame wound and the belonging wound.

[Aremo David @Hon_aremo]

When I started Obstetrics and Gynaecology (O&G), I thought it was just about pregnancy and delivery.

My ignorance was truly beautiful. 😂💔

I was there thinking,

“A woman gets pregnant, carries the baby for nine months, delivers, and everybody goes home happy.”

Then O&G opened the first lecture slide and I realized I had underestimated an entire specialty. 😭😂

First, they introduce the menstrual cycle.

Hormones start rising.

Other hormones start falling.

Some hormones stimulate other hormones.

Those hormones now inhibit another set of hormones.

At some point, everybody is regulating everybody.

The hormones are having more meetings than the government. 😂💔

Then comes pregnancy.

I thought pregnancy was one topic.

Only to discover that pregnancy has trimesters.

Each trimester has its own physiology.

Its own complications.

Its own investigations.

Its own management.

Its own ways to humble medical students. 😭😂

Just when you’re trying to understand normal pregnancy, O&G says,

“Now let’s discuss abnormal pregnancy.”

Before you recover, you’re reading ectopic pregnancy, preeclampsia, eclampsia, gestational diabetes, placenta previa, placental abruption, postpartum hemorrhage, and about 700 other ways pregnancy can become complicated. 😂💔

The workload is unbelievable.

Every topic seems to have classifications.

Every classification has stages.

Every stage has features.

Every feature has management.

Every management has indications and contraindications.

At some point, even the classifications need classification. 😭😂

Then comes labor.

First stage.

Second stage.

Third stage.

Sometimes I felt like I was the one in labor from the amount of reading involved. 😂💔

And don’t get me started on Gynecology.

Fibroids.

Endometriosis.

PCOS.

Cervical cancer.

Ovarian tumors.

Uterine prolapse.

Infertility.

Every organ in the female reproductive system apparently has its own chapter, subchapter, and special mission to stress students. 😭😂

Exam period is where the real miracle happens.

You spend weeks memorizing management protocols.

The moment you enter the exam hall, all the protocols enter maternity leave. 😂💔

Question:

“Outline the management of severe preeclampsia.”

My brain:

“Congratulations on your pregnancy.” 😭😂

The answer was somewhere in my head.

The problem was that it was not yet fully dilated.

So it couldn’t be delivered. 😂💔

After the exam, everything suddenly returns.

The investigations.

The risk factors.

The management.

The complications.

Even the things nobody asked.

Apparently, the knowledge was full term.

It simply refused to be delivered during the examination. 😭😂

That was when I learned that O&G is not just a course.

It’s a complete journey from puberty to menopause, with enough lecture notes to make students experience contractions before graduation. 😂💔

O&G taught me that labor is not only experienced by pregnant women; medical students experience academic labor too. 😭😂

The day I treated a Prof of anesthesiology . She tried everything to avoid medical words , she kept referring to me as sir until I asked her where is the abdominal pain located , she said around the right iliac fossa . I just paused 😒

Normalize being very direct, very straight to the point and very assertive. A surprising amount of tension in adult life exist because people avoid saying what they actually mean.
