Hospital Applications

Hi everyone,

How are you? What are you up to? Any exciting events?

Life here in Melbourne has been flying by at a frenetic pace. I am in a bit of a whirlwind trying to fit 30 hours into everyday and generally exhausting myself in the process. That is why i am loving the queen at the moment. It has been so nice to have today off to get a few more things done, sleep in for one more day, and take the time to take a deep breath and relax!

Why am i so busy? well on friday 16th june all my applications for jobs for 2007 as an intern must be completed. So apart from attending my usual rotation at Box Hill, doing surgery, I am also trying to do study, put together my CV, attend interviews and fill in application forms. Leaving the house at 6.45am doesn't help the tiredness thing and i am pretty much decided that i am never going to get used to it and hence should not consider becoming a surgeon!

This weekend has been much better though. On Friday night Joff and I caught up with friends for dinner and a movie and then Saturday headed down to the Victorian surfcoast, namely Jan Juc, to stay with friends for 2 days. It was so nice to be by the sea, walks on the beach, greasy fish and chips, the whole works.

Anyway, i will endeavour to write more regularly to you all. (once june 16 rolls around that is!) Hope everything is gong well. those of you in Auckland what was the deal with the power cut we heard about on the news?
