exams in 12 days. OFFICIALLY PANICKING.

you know the feeling you get when you really can't study any more and yet you feel like you don't know anything?
that's me right now.

made worse by the fact that all my boys got pushed to an earlier exam on 6 and 7 october in coventry and i'm in edinburgh. so i have no more study partners :(((

was super thankful to receive a call from W at the airport when he was boarding the plane to london, in his usual fashion of, "ZOMG stop feeling sorry for your pathetic self and go study or sleep. don't sit there and mope now that i'm not there to kick your arse. and eh send me Ranson's score. Glasgow also. And wish me luck for pwning the exam!"
oh LOL what would i do without the boys. very thankful for 8 years of friendship and counting. we have seen each other through 5 years of exams, numerous on-calls, relationships and deaths.

Always regretted not deciding on ortho earlier (instead of wasting time on ob/gyn!), but that would have meant taking exams without the boys (lost 2 years going back to army for conscription).
tradeoffs for everything :)

so went for yoga today. very good for me - breath of fresh air after being cooped up at home/office for a week! flexibility is the pits now :(

gonna take a nap and do questions with W later over whatsapp (technology, i love you!). he has gotten to london safe and is going for breakfast at harrods (i hate him). S, L and P have reached coventry safely and C is flying now. fingers crossed!

flying in a week. PANICKING!!!!!

omg i have abandoned this blog for a year! :( i am sorry!

it's just so much easier to type short things on twitter, no need to sit down and ruminate and pen out a proper blog entry (not that i actually sit down and ponder what goes into my blog entries, but still)

if you follow me on twitter, you will know that i didn't make it into residency. again. and yes, i was horrendously disappointed and upset and angry etc etc. but i've moved on and gotten over it. hopefully next year! (and i think next year is the last year i will try for ortho)

still loving ortho! had the best reg ever in Spine which made the 3/12 there quite fun actually. he's like my big brother. best part was he actually let me do a cancellous screws on call with him! :D and you know what, the check Xray was fab. so i rock okay :D (rather, he rocks hahaha)

i also passed mrcs part a! which means that come october, i will be flying to edinburgh to sit for part b! looking forward to returning to UK once more :D :D :D
sunday roasts, primark, marks and sparks, sains, and so much more :D
and hopefully i pass my exam ;)

if i should be following you on twitter etc drop me a line! you can always find me @ditzydoctor

gonna keep this blog alive somehow. can't give it up just yet! :)
