An update....

In case you didn't get the memo... I FREAKING PASSED MEDICAL SCHOOL!! WOOHOO!!!!!

Yes after 5 years of slogging and cramming I have finally graduated from medical school.

At times it feels like it took me forever to reach here and then there are times when I just feel time flew by so fast.

It is just an amazing feeling to finally have something to show all those people who said 'Why you still studying?' or 'Not working yet ah?' In your face! Double degree graduate!! Hah!!!

I am ever so excited to start this new phase of my life where I can finally work on building my career.

As I leave my medical student life, i definitely need to acknowledge the presence of my wonderful friends and batchmates. Without these people my medical school life wouldn't have been so exciting and I wouldn't have so many memories and stories to recall and remember. To all these people you guys are AMAZING and it truly is a pleasure to graduate alongside you guys!!

To my friends: Words cannot describe how I feel about you guys. You have been there through all the drama and fun. What a ride it has been!! Thank you so much for every little thing you guys have done. Memories to last a lifetime and a bond that would transcend years....

Finally....

21st of September 2010... This date marks the final day of my 5 year battle and struggle in medical school *Yes it was a struggle for me* This past month has really been a tough one for me - stuffing in all that information learnt over the past 5 years - I felt like I was going to lose it. But now it's all over and the wait is here. Waiting for that day to come. That day that will change my life and make my parents happy that finally their son has done it.

What can I do now? PRAY!!! Pray!!! and pray! =P

Today - 2nd Sept 2010

Of all the days you have hurt me today has been the worst.

That tone in your voice I recognize it all so well and I guess hearing you today did snap me back to reality.

I am confused as to what I should do and how I should react.

As of now I am pissed and so very hurt. So don't bother saying anything because after today things are gonna be different. I did say this would happen but you said I shouldn't preach my concepts in life. So whatever to that! you would realize how much you have hurt me one day and by the time that comes I would have recovered and would have found the strength to say what I cannot say now...

Whatever is said this is on me. I brought is upon myself and I should have been more careful. You had your time now let me have mine!

I hate you!

I HATE YOU

HATE YOU

YOU! I HATE!!!

HATE with a capital H A T and E!!!

Is your sole purpose in life to see me hurt??

If that is so, well Congratu-fucking-lations!!!

Mission accomplished for you!!!!

Now pack up and LEAVE!!!

Almost halfway done!

Today at 12 something in the afternoon marked the end of my Final MBBS MEQ portion of the examinations. It started last Friday with the medicine paper and today was the surgical paper. Both paper had their pros and cons but whatever they are I'm just glad that it is over. I hope I had done enough to at least pull my marks up to a passing grade.

Next hurdle would be the multiple choice questions which begin on Wednesday and end on Friday. Looking forward to the weekend?? Not really. I still have my OSCE exam on the following Tuesday. It is like a never-ending strings of exams one after the other. I hope I come out of this as a doctor. I really don't want to spend another 6 months staring at my text books.

Today after the paper I decided I wanted to go bowling! It was my way of kinda releasing all my anger, stress and tension. And it kinda worked after bowling strikes and spares I did feel much better afterwards. Highest score so far 172. =D Next target to score more than 200!

After bowling, Daveena, Taran and I went to Jusco to do some window shopping. Actually more like I did some window shopping and those 2 actually did buy some stuff.

We then met up with Gillian, Andrew, Dinesh and Ruben for dinner and Papa John's Pizza. I really did enjoy dinner. The pizza we ordered ( The Mexican Ole and Chicken Super Papa) was good! The main reason we were all out and in Jusco tonight was because of Baskin Robbins. They were having this discount in conjunction with Merdeka - 31% off every pint, quart, or half gallon of any flavour. Who would miss that right??!! So we all went for it. =D

I ended up buying 2 pints for myself which now sits quietly in my freezer awaiting me... =D

You don't get to....

You don't get to call me up and act like nothing ever did happen.

You don't get to expect me to act or normal.

You don't get to expect anything from me anymore.

Simply for the fact when all I expected from you was just you and your presence but what I got in return was just tears and heartache!!

So NO!!

You don't get to question anything about me or my behaviour.

You don't get to have any say in anything I do!

You just DON'T!!!....

The Final Stretch!

It's here finally! The week I have been dreading! Oh my! The nerves have been kicking in for quite some time already but I keep suppressing them. But now I dunno... I'm stressed, tensed, freaking out. What if I don't get through this? I mean this is after all the BIG finals you know. I somehow manage to scrap through the other examinations but this is in like a whole new level.

I really want to get through this phase of my life and begin the next phase. The phase where I get to work and care for my family. I wanna be there for them and provide for them. But in order for that to happen I need to freaking pass this HUGE hurdle that is coming in a few days.

Good luck to all my friends who are sitting for this HURDLE together with me. Let's meet on the other side of the finish line!
