..annoyance

My dear friend called me from land far far away.. Belfast... Although her motive of calling me is questionable, that is to share good news with the world, and confirming some crucial information, it was still a nice and nostalgic conversation. And inevitably, leads to the question if i was depressed, since my blog entries have been all about complaints and sad serious thoughts.

So, be assured my friends out there, Linda is not depressed. If anything, i'm annoyed. At a lot of things and at a lot of people. So now, I'm gonna log off cuz I don't want to complain anymore. Think positive.. reach the state of zen... Take a deep breath...

........

It doesn't work. gggrrrr....

..first month at work.

SIGH... That pretty much sums it all. I've never felt so incompetent and over the moon at the same time. There were times when I felt like I could have learned more during med school, and maybe if I put in the extra effort, I wouldn't feel so clueless at times.
But there were also times, after patients are discharged and slowly slipped from memory, they ran into you in follow up clinic, called you by your name and thanked you for the care during their stay in the hospital.
There certainly were up times and seriously down times. I guess, I just have to give myself a break, flow with it, and learn from mistakes. After all, it is just my first month of being a doctor.

Till the next update..

..exhaustion..

Okay.. Maybe I shouldn't complain so much considering my friends in Malaysia or some other places had it 100 times worse than what I am going through right now. But man, I'm exhausted. My legs ache, my ass is hurting me, and the fact that I am sooo unfit doesn't help at all.

This is my work schedule: 7 to 5. or sometimes 6. That seems so insignificant as compared to business people who work late plus having to entertain clients and stuff. Or compared to Sha who worked 30 hours straight. So yeah.. I feel like a brat for complaining and having the guts to post it here. But here I am.. I am tired...

..Townsville, so far..

How's Townsville??? If you ask me, I'd say it's AWESOME!!! So far, at least.

First of all, I love my work, despite the hiccups that I had last week. But it's all good now and I'm excited to start again next week. Plus, all the extra money that i'm gonna get from overtime certainly wouldn't hurt.

I've been having fun!! Went to basketball game, The Crocs beat Adelaide last night, that was good. Then we went to Cactus Jack for a few drinks, and guess who we bumped into? Robbie Fowler. Well, I must admit that I didn't know who it was while Adrian was tripping all over the place trying to find a camera. All we had was my camera phone. So here it is.. I saved the day for him!!



so yeah.. i think Townsville is awesome so far. Plus it doesn't hurt that we live just 2 streets away from the beach!!!
I'm looking forward to the rest of the year..

...my awesome and cute niece...

On the 16th January 2009, this cute little angel was born into the world. Wish I could be there for her.. =)

...packing

I almost died packing today... Either by heat stroke or sheer dehydration. It's crazy hot today. Temperature reached 33degree but the real feel is actually 39!! It's so humid, no breeze, no air movement whatsoever!!

The result is my room is packed, as amazing as that is, considering the amount of junk that is in my room. My store room is packed, my notes are thrown out, my shoes are packed too.. =(

A lot more left.. =(
