Long overdue comments

Hello peeps,

I finally finished my long overdue report. Well, I was not given a deadline hence I was procrastinating and feeling amotivational but finally after sitting on my bed with my laptop for 10hours, a week of few working paragraphs turned into a report of 2600 words. Phew....next on the list to do is....argh so much to do!!!

Right, regarding the winning-competition-I-am-so-dead issue. Dundee had a same regional competition on Wednesday and a few of my friends/ IMU peeps joined too! One of them called to find out what were my stations to better prepare himself and I was thrilled to know that I might have a familiar face when I get to the Finals but sadly, I am still going alone.

In relation to the article, I have tonnes of things to comment. Firstly, why on earth is my age revealed? Is it important to show how old am I? Gosh, I feel so old looking at my age spelled out in front of me. Next, before the article was released, I was asked to fill up the feedback form and I did not know that they were using what I wrote in the form to represent my thoughts in the article. Of course what I wrote was not copied word to word hence it felt weird reading things that I supposedly say but oh well, nothing to complain about since the gist of it is similar. Tonnes of things to comment? Not.

 The most updated thing about the competition is appearing in the Evening Express newspaper and next week, I am going to have an interview by a newspaper reporter from Press and Journal. Apparently Press and Journal is the more serious proper newspaper so I am kinda worried as to what will happen when I am featured in their 'People's Page' section. Why am I feeling bad? Because my Psych consultants are pushing me into the specialty and I have to admit, psych has always been an interest to me but I am interested in Surgery as well. I might come out straight and say this, I like all specialty as long as the consultants and doctors are nice so I dislike Orthopedic. Pediatricians are one of the nicest doctors around but I dislike children so paeds is out of the question.

My psych consultant like I mentioned in my previous post told everyone including my new Psych consultant (I just changed department after 3 weeks) that I want to be a Psychiatrist. Right, what do you say when you are in the situation where you can only answer yes? You answer YES! So I have been saying YES when my previous Psych consultant say 'Jene wants to be a Psychiatrist.' Now, if he reads Press and Journal and found me in an article saying I like Surgery as well, how am I going to face him??!!! ARGH!!!

I'm in deep shit.

Oh, my current consultant stays in between of Elgin and Aberdeen and he does clinics in Elgin for 2 days. I want to go Elgin because I want to meet the doctors there and it's nice to see how he conducts his clinics in Elgin. Fine, I just want to go Elgin because I want to meet the doctors there. Anyway, since he can't fetch me from Aberdeen to Elgin, I proposed the idea of taking the train and meeting him there but he suggested
'If you are brave, you can stay overnight at my place and we can go to the clinic the next day. I have a spare room'

WOW....staying at a consultant's place??!! I'm quite excited with the idea because I can see how a normal Scottish family is like at home. I told my housemate and he was scaring me with things like 'oh, ang moh likes to have affair etc' But he has a family with 3 young kids! The youngest is 2.5 years old so nothing will happen right? But I don't know if he suggested because he's being polite and nice or he really does mean it. Well, I'm going to risk it and just ask him if he means it but giving him a leeway of saying no as well.

Let's see...
