Slacking

Think I'm getting too slack. Hardly do my wadi time, hardly read up to improve my knowledge. Just slacking all the time. I think I'm just not suited for jobs where I have lots of free time for myself. I need to be doing things all the time and the more busy I get the more I want to cram more activities possible into whatever free time I have.

I will regress if I have too much time to relax. Masochistic? Maybe. I guess that's the way I click. Or issit?

Got a presentation due next saturday and it's got to be vetted by a senior anytime this week but I haven't got cracking. Only thing I did was to print out articles, save them on my thumb but never bother to read them. Sigh.

Guess it's coz this is not really where my passion is. Or issit coz I'm just too used to slacking? I dunno.

Think it's time to snap out of this surreal experience and get cracking!

The Running Man

Been a long time since I entered an entry... (?)

Anyways, yes you've guessed it, I am in my-once-a-week workspace.. hehehe... how to resist the 19 inch LCD with P4 processor in a private personal space...

Have been running at least once a week and the pain is excrutiating! Can hardly breathe, joints aching and there were many times that I thought I was gonna collapse! Never realised how bad a shape I was in until now... actually I knew but I guess I was just deceiving myself. Hah!

As I ran round the track, I reflected on how I have changed over the years. I realised I have become more impatient and this aspect of me is even evident when I exercise. I want to get to the end of the 6 rounds quickly but yet my body is unable to attain that level of performance. In the process I ended up with sore joints and what seemed like a failing heart...

Then I told myself... what's the hurry? Why the rush? I couldn't answer myself. (of course, this was coupled by the fact that I was breathless and thought I was going to die)

I then decided to take a slow walk around the estate since my knees can no longer take the constant pounding, let alone my heart... I realised that everyone around me is speeding through life, taking postgrad exams, passing them quick, planning their postings so that they can move on to the next phase ASAP, get a reg job ASAP...
The key word was ASAP. This ASAP, that ASAP. GRAB this GRAB that... Do this DO that... SETTLE this SETTLE that...

Am I taking things too easy? Am I falling far behind in this race against time?

Good call 100804

Just finished some online modules to qualify for a course assessment next saturday. Some laparoscopic course, what many would refer to as simple operations made ridiculously difficult. Kind of like tying your shoe lace with long chop sticks with your hands tied to your back...hmmm... let me picture that...

Anyway had a good rest yesterday (1130 pm to 645 am? =P)during the call..haha and managed to meet up with an old friend for lunch today.

Such impromptu lunch dates always brighten up my day. Nice to find out that he has found someone (finally? I'm truly happy for him, it's just that he has been grumbling about being alone blah blah blah...) and nice to know that some things about him just never change. Always so blunt and tactless but nonetheless sincere. Still a great friend to have, to say the least.

Just realised I've been so caught up with work that I hardly water the plants of friendship. (cliche..huh?) I guess as you get on in years, you tend to find that true friends are hard to come by and the bonds that you forge when you were in your younger years still tend to be stronger and well-tested by water and fire...

Heroic couplet...w oohoo!



I am heroic couplets; most precise
And fond of order. Planned and structured. Nice.
I know, of course, just what I want; I know,
As well, what I will do to make it so.
This doesn't mean that I attempt to shun
Excitement, entertainment, pleasure, fun;
But they must keep their place, like all the rest;
They might be good, but ordered life is best.

Rain rain go away

It's raining again. Never liked going to work on a rainy day. Also knew that rain is a sign for us to stop our usual routine and take a break. It's a time for rejuvenation.

Having said all that, here I am at work, as per routine.

As usual the 8 am list still hasn't started. No patients, no surgeon and my boss hasn't arrived yet... which explains why I am putting in this entry... haha
