New start

1st of January, 2008.

A new start.

Actually not particularly new. Just that my internship has been halfway through and I am halfway to being a medical officer.
A real doctor.

A DOCTOR. Sounds weird.
I am more comfortable with the word "human body technician", as compared to "electrical technician".
Which part of the human body should I specialise in, then?
I don't know. Or maybe I'll never know.

My man commented: don't be indecisive. Decide on one specialty and move on. Stop thinking after you decided.
The truth is, if you keep on considering the pros and cons of each and every options, you don't actually fit well into any of them. At least, none has aroused your enthusiasm.

My major concern lies in finding a comfortable and well paid job.
Not career development.

Leave career development to my man. To finance, he is filled with near-love enthusiasm.
In him, I can see future financial giant. I don't see a great doctor in me.

Where does my enthusiasm lie? In clinical psychology, maybe.
Psychiatry? Too organic.
I need a bit of human touch.

Now at the start of orthopaedic internship. Acceptable start, though I don't know how will my workload be when I am on call. Touch wood. I still need my lok yau yip shower gel.

Been sleep-deprived for quite some time. Going to replenish my sleep in the coming 1-2 days.
