New World

After a month and a half wandering around the hospital wards, hearing swearing and moaning in the A&E department, running after tutors, hearing complaints at the OP offices and testing the several coffee machines I guess I can say that I'm getting quite used to hospital life. I'm particularly enjoying the practical side of medicine and, unknowingly, I'm finding myself reading and writing notes just for the sake of interest (this I haven't done since the sweet old days when I was obsessed with organic chemistry).

(For the occasional 1st and 2nd year Med. student who reads this blog I confirm, like my predecessors did, that there is a HUGE difference between the campus years and the clinical years and to be completely honest I reckon you should enjoy both).

Rugby season has started once again and we managed to win our first game without difficulty (although frankly, the referee was a bit of a w*****r). I guess pre-season fitness training paid off and my fitness has definitely improved. I'm running faster, lifting better and tackling harder (at the cost of more bruises) and with a noticeable increase in my team-mates' performance I think we could make a definite hit in this year's league.

I also increased my MMSA workload, helping SCORP constantly with design and project management, attending SCOPH's WDD, aiding the Leisure Comittee in finding a suitable sponsor and helping them in the Christmas party preparations. I can already smell the sweet smell of aeroplane upholstery......

Anyway I'm off to continue some filing (guess some things never change :P)

Peace!!

Ally out!

(I will leave you with a classic)



PS: Relax christmas coming up. After so many years I can actaully calm down a bit during the month of December.
