30 seconds to Midnight

another day. another battle to fight. another sun rises before it sets for another day.

i got the morning off today after a gruelling 36 hour shift at the trauma unit. (sheesh..why does every head injury needs a neuro consult? every dog bite, every stroke...live healthier people!)

so, i pretty much blacked out when i got home last night at 10 pm, and opened my eyes to a whole new morning at 8am. That was the most sleep i've ever gotten in the past 2 weeks..seriously.

So, i got to do my laundry, a lil bit of housekeeping ( i've just realized what a slacker i have been for those 2 weeks and yes..months to come), before i got a call to join S and Wah for a much anticipated brunch of Dim Sum later.

It was good. and quiet to say the least. The Suki restaurant- is normally packed on a Sunday; but unlike today it was pretty scarce. So we ate and caught up with each other. My clinical stories and their updates on the town and class gossip.

Ah, how it is to be free and laid back. Then we headed for a movie since my shift tonight is at 9pm..i thought what the heck. I haven't seen High School Musical 3 and yes, lame. But i happen to love musicals. haha ( hello, please watch Across the Universe, Mamma Mia and at least Johhny Depp's attempt as the dreaded barber..it is worth it!)

and since i'm not studying and wasting my time as it is, i thought why not. go online and check out things i haven't been able to..because...in the next 24 hours i'll be living in the Stroke Centre Hospital about an hour's drive away and golly gee...i have no idea if i'll survive.

Sighs. few minutes and hours before it all.

i wonder what i'll do next. seems that all my neuro notes and books are eluding my grasp.

2 weeks left, and then HELLO NIGHTMARE of Paediatrics!
