The truth

Actually i am begining to get use to my life in Med Hat now. Living here alone without friends can be real tough. However, people around here is so genuinely nice that i am begining to like it more and more. Opening the door to an empty apartment can be depressive. The only thing that keeps me going now is my family medicine training. I am getting better at it everyday and started to like it even better than surgery. My preceptor is an excellent family doc, he connects so well with his patients, he could just remember everything about his patients but i guess that will comes with training and also by being attentive. So far, he has yet lead me into any moment of stress. Not sure how much he likes my performance since i first came but a whisper of his praises did lift me up today! Hope that things will only go better!

Hm.....cosmetics can do wonders......add on a bit of foundation, mascara and a few strokes of colors here and there...pop! it actually masked my pale,tired-looking face that had gone through days without proper sleep, perfectly! Holy camoly!

I got half of my evaluation from Dr.Temple few days ago. He wrote only a short sentence in his remarks area....."very enthusiatic hardworking clerk". Though it's not something stunning but at least, there's no negative remark in it! I was afraid that my deficient in knowledge during my first 2 weeks of elective could lead to a disaster!

I am down with URTI since 3 days ago..... ;) happy that i can finally diagnose myself! This viral infection seems to be progressing day by day...i think i am getting feverish after a bout of sorethroat, productive cough and runny nose! Praying hard that it'll only last for a week...next friday is my D-Day....i will not postpone it anymore, i think i had enough of stress over it. I should just let it be for I'm ready to accept the outcome of it!

I wish to send my wishes and hugs to all my friends whose emotions are on a roller-coaster at this moment. Ry....even though things are greener on the other side, but colourful flowers will bloom around you. Mich.....treasure what you are doing at home now for you do not know when you are leaving it again for something else.
