it is the 4th quarters of the year, final lap for some for those taking exam...so all the best
and during tis long weekend, majority of us have to work our heads off to cover those on holiday, i am just thankful that 2 weeks of oct oredi down with one more week to go ... keep sane!

Guess everyone is busy with their life right now. Those preparing for exams will not feel the urge to blog, lest it is to vent their stress and frustration?

Bit surprised that bot MRCP and MRCPCH exams are being held together. Must be a massive undertaking.

To all those taking, GOOD LUCK!!!

Prepare for the worst and hope for the best, stay cool and confident!

everyone seems to be busy, the surgical based master will be having their exam soon, i think it is in nov/dec. as for me, counting the days to be back in my old HQ in perak... one half more month to go...

Haven't blogged in for some time. Forgot my password. Was surprised to see that there hasn't been many posts lately. Does this signal the death of our blog? Anyway, hear the MRCP and MRCPCH clinical exams are around the same time. 30th/31st October. Those of you who want to meet up in KL, let me know (sms/e-mail or whatever) and will try to arrange something.

seems everyone is so quiet nowadays.. hopefully everyone is well with our work, enjoying every minute...

my favourite poem :

Don't Quit
by anonymous
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest! if you must; but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up, though the pace seems slow;
You might succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup.
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt;
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit;
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.

life has to go on, right? even though you did not get into the master programme.
congrats to the lucky ones but certainly not all.... some need comforts instead.

yes, congrats to all!

one more thing guys, to those who are reading, kindly email me your handphone number or just publish it in this blog cos as you know, someone in hanoi is using my phone. Anyways, I got back my old hp number, so there is no change there.

Just came back from Hanoi. On vacation from my vacation now until I start work tmr. Hanoi was dirty, noisy, crowded, expensive, rude and somebody stole my handphone. But I have learnt how to cross the roads. Over there, pedestrians just look at the direction we are heading and walk. One does not reverse or try to stop for the motorcyclists as that could cause an accident or we may just never get across. The motorcyclists will avoid you. Amazing. I felt like Moses parting the red sea as the motorcyclists avoided me!!! But otherwise, it was an experience and that was worth it.

Another bad news... My boss told me that I may have to cancel my leave as someone else in my dept who applied leave after me is going to India for 1 month, so she has priority. Damn.

Anyways, I have given up hope in trying to move the cows at KKM to make their decisions on the masters thingy. I think it's the minimal brain cells that hampers their skills (only able to manage their ADL). The sourface is because they had difficulty remembering how to use the phone. The engaged ringtone is because they forgot how to replace the phone in correct position and the frustration at the punch clock is misconstrude as in actual fact, they were busy trying to remember how to get back home.

We must not be angry with them and instead encourage them to apply for OKU...
