big bad wolf

Just thought I'd stick up a picture of me since it's been an age since I've updated. Curled hair is all right I suppose, though I probably would consider bangs more flattering, if only I didn't have easily irritated skin that broke out each time I kept 'em!

The reason for my lack of updates is an extremely good one -- I've been doing obsgynae (aka O&G) aka the most rigorous of courses not counting final MBBS. Well simply because the grades we get are counted for the Final MBBS I suppose, and everybody's chionging like mad. Seriously, I've never seen everybody work so hard before. It's frightening and you really gotta get your freak on. At 5 am, I am contemplating whether I should do my 2nd write up and submit it during tutorial later (I've been having tuts every Sunday, and even Saturday sometimes) or just heck it and get to bed and pray Dr Anna won't fry my arse. I think I'll choose the former though... can't take any chances here. I love O&G for it's sake -- it's my favorite so far I think :) But it's not been all smooth sailing and rosy. Will elaborate further next time. Am trying to stay entirely positive. 3 weeks left. Gotta keep it up!

I have learnt, however painful it is to admit it, that sometimes, no matter what your gut says, actions speak louder than gut feelings or chemistry or whatever ephemeral bits of gladness that threaten to stupefy you do. If he doesn't call/email/get back to you despite things (heading overseas is NOT an excuse), he is simply not interested. That my dearest friends is one hard won epiphany.

On brighter things -- been keeping in touch with some, losing touch (but will definitely be back intouch) with others. I love this crazy busy absolutely insane life too much to complain. Though I wish I could spend more time outside with all of you (really shagged when I get home -- honestly it's dinner and bed and mug and hospital all over again).
