what?
my one-week easter break is coming to an end. :( barcelona was amazing and the forecast easter-week rain with thunderstorms did not happen! instead we were blessed with beautiful golden sunshine and temperatures way into the 20's. i dare not say the same for madrid - weather was wonderful, but the place and the people were not. but all in all it was a much needed and satisfactory break! and then came back to recaps of the royal wedding which was absolutely gorgeous in my opinion.
post-spain and royal wedding and now it's back to harsh reality and the hard facts of life: a tragedy in the family, a ridiculous audit report which data i can make no sense of, and 2 weeks to the progress test which i honestly don't have the time to revise for. how nice if one can be on holiday forever?
i will blog about the trip another time. but you know what, i've decided that barcelona is now my 2nd favourite city after sydney. :) yes it has bumped paris to 3rd place, but i'm sure it'd be a different story if i had gone to paris with a lot of money in my pocket. :p
just for fun. sweeleen's top 10 favourite cities (not including kuala lumpur and manchester - because i wouldn't know where to rank them :p):

filler
:p
so it's OSCE-time once again. i want to say i'm stressed out, but i've been sleeping way too much the past few days and that really isn't consistent with being stressed. somehow i strangely feel at peace. there is still a lot to revise and one week isn't quite enough to get everything on my checklist ticked off (plus this week is jam-packed with revision sessions in hospital) but hey, come what may.
i had such a good semester and the blocks were simply amazing. Preston taught us psychiatry, orthopaedics and rheumatology so well, we really have to give it to them. i cannot say the same for neurology considering the doctors were always too busy and the block was quite poorly organised, but when teaching sessions did happen, they were very good. so really, if i were to do badly in the exams, i only have myself to blame. hmm ok now i am slightly stressed. haha.
4th year just flew pass too quickly. i constantly have to remind myself that i'm no longer in 3rd year, let alone realise that i've actually completed my 4th year modules and after these exams i only have an SSC and a gastro project to do before going home again for the summer. and then the real nightmare starts - final year. but i shall worry about that later.
i want next week to end and then i can say bring on spring! there are so many exciting things lined up for me, like spain during easter break and a very rare exam-free birthday. also probably short travels during weekends and definitely lots of meet-ups! the weather has been nice and i can already smell flowers in bloom.
but first, this hurdle to jump over - (hopefully) my second last exams in medical school. good luck, me!
