Another day but the same ol’ story. Crappy story. I couldn't
fall asleep whole night, was awake till morning. After breakfast, one big fat
attack of rhinitis. Slept till evening after ODing on antihistaminics ( I
really must do something about these allergies, it’s spiraling out of control,
my whole life is being impeded by it). Despite lagging behind on the schedule,
I whiled away whole evening doing nothing productive ( adding post-its on the
first page of each chapter, scribbled with questions asked from the previous
exams, when I already have a ready question bank, doesn't count to be fruitful
exactly). So here I am back to where I started. Now it is time to say bye-bye
to the urinary system as from tomorrow I have to start on the gastro-intestinal
system according to the schedule.
Today, after being holed up inside my house for exactly four
months (27th April was that black day, gadget, a really black day) I
finally missed being out there in the midst of all the action. I mean I always
wanted a long break, it had been nearly decade and half of the vicious cycle of
studying and exams and I was sick and tired, physically and mentally. But now I
really miss seeing the patients, diagnosing their conditions and treating them,
operating them. Who would have thought of it? I just want to get back into the
thick of the things as soon as I can. Hey, that’s exactly what I wanted to do
all these years. That’s what I slaved my ass off, sacrificed so many things.
Now, am not getting onto my high horse and screaming my lungs out that we,
doctors are the noblest creatures and we sacrifice so many personal things for
the sake of the society. But it’s a fact, yeah. Agreed, there are some, may be
many, black sheep who bring bad name to medical community, but overall,
becoming a doctor does entail letting go of many things in life. There can be
no denying in that.
Anyways coming back to my train-wrecked life, it’s
dangerously close to getting derailed again. I have to pull up my act. There were people who wrote me off time and
again, some people who didn't even know me personally, and every time I bounced
back, just like a phoenix. These people, what have I done to deserve such harsh
words from you guys. Some of you have even never met me! Can’t they just watch
that movie Bambi and learn that “if you can’t say something nice to someone
then just b quiet”. It might be difficult for you if I had screwed up your
life, but in case you even don’t know me, how hard is that? And for all the
people who know me, well then you haven't seen the last of me.....-.
Now about watching what I eat, today I ate sensibly, in fact
perfectly within the limits. Actually its 2 a.m. now and am hungry! But all I
will do is to gulp down chilled water and have few almonds. No exercise. That’s
anyways out of question now till the exams get over. So take care and have a
great weekend everyone. Live life.
Here’s just a song, today I came across while watching TV (I
know, me watching TV???) from a show called Glee, sung by a character in some
sort of audition/contest. Honestly the first time I heard about the show when
its lead star Cory Monteith died (and the show was already 4 seasons old; the
hermit me!) and thought it must be just another fluffy song and dance show. Hey but recently I have seen couple of
episodes and I actually did like the singing part. So enjoy this little pep
number. I have absolutely no idea who performed this originally and right now I
have no time and inclination to find out.
Tomorrow is another day friends. Just as Grizabella in CATS sings
Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I musn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin..................
