The end?!

What has a beginning surely has an end! Today was my final exam in psychiatry & my efforts paid off really well. Studying for it was something else, day in day out was psych *my excuse for absence from blogsville*lol. My whole experience at the department was wonderful, met some entertaining patients. One in particular who was so concerned about the language barrier and offered to be my translator :-D nice thoughtful huh?! And then the tutors are generally helpful people and cheerful...despite their work environment they remain caring. Bless them!

Story story....so right from day one of practice am happy to say that myself and study partner kept to our word of studying 5 topics each day out of #102 questions. With each passing day we made sure we covered what we had to do *projection motivation* is what I'll call it. There were days we didn't want to study but we pushed ourselves, thank God we had Sundays off...won't be a mental case just yet lol. We basically kept up with our schedule up until last week that it had to be reading until you can't handle more information (just staring @ the pages)/ saturated . And then yesterday was more panic mixed with anxiety & stress, when you have the feeling that all you've studied can't be remembered or isn't enough for the exam. I definitely had no plans of the regular 6 hrs sleep.Anyways already cooked up the usual, get home, eat something, sleep for 4hrs, drink red bull and revise through the morning. And yes I did it! Takes discipline!

From the time I woke up I kept on praying for success, retentive memory and all, exam is to start at 10am, left my flat past 8am to library to go through a particular topic cause wikipedia google refused to help me on that lmao....its not my text book right?! Anyways did what I had to do and continued praying that I'll pick something that won't mess me up and thank God for answered prayers *phew*. It's the Lords doing! It's good bye psychiatry maybe for good and hello Neurology on Monday.
Hang around for the second part of my journey...hope its fun *fingers crossed*

Off to take a nap

Yours truly
Mee :-)
