and when she speaks
Wednesday, September 09, 2009
I was going through Time magazine online, thanks to Chai Ling's link.and... I browsed through pictures of the past week.And looking at the first picture of a loving embrace of family members who gathered for Edward Kennedy's memorial,...these things came to mind. And I thought they would be pretty enough to be written down.And even better to experience and feel.Loving strong embrace. A simple hug that echoes understanding and warmth. And support.An sms that asks how your day was; or letting you know you were in their thoughts and that you were missed.A mutual glance at each other's eyes - and the sharing solidarity of understanding what each other's going through. I find this practise, particularly amongst my co-interns =) and it hit me today, how we do that subconsciously- and immediately relate to each other's feelings and thoughts :) A little high five to make my day.Sitting together by any bench spending only a few minutes catching up. Or taking a moment's break together. --- especially before your next page ;) Ah! How I love my fellow co-interns. I really think our batch is wonderful!NYC this weekend my dears :)

This is what happens when you become bored. Or are distracted with trying to initiate studying.
And you've nothing better to do but play with your webcam and sunnies at night.

I say it once more here. I fell in love with oncology clinic.I don't know if it's the doctors I was working with. Dr Leslie, Dr Bonomi- everyone had a heart of gold and so much compassion. And zest and passion in what they do. There was life in that clinic despite the morbid illnesses we were dealing with. And one more thing; it was wicked fun ;) I don't know what to do. Im the kind of person who loves everything I've been thrown into; and thats because I learn you take the positive in everything you do; and you are there to learn and to experience and to gain. On my very last day of clinic, Dr Leslie and I had a nice long chat for about an hour and a half, for awhile with the fellow Neel. On lots of things. And he said to me this right before the end of our conversation *lol* after I told him I was still exploring all my options and I had never considered oncology before because I had never had experience in this til this rotation:He said to me 'nephrology is fun...but we are...' and he laughed.I completed his sentence for him; and laughed along. I had told him earlier nephrology was a specialty I was contemplating.Til this rotation came along. I haven't decided. And am going to have to start thinking about it soon.Til then; my Saturday was as filled as can be:-Brunch at Bongo Room. followed by Guitar Hero and Bridge card sessions, and then a half hour nap at home; running off to Grand Lux for dinner with Vickie who came from Indiana, and then off to catch the fireworks by chance, and then to a blues bar called Buddy Guy's Legend :)I'm learning a lot everyday. And I'm so glad for the opportunities that come my way; and for my family to be so supportive; and for mum to come on Skype every few days to talk through all that I'm experiencing. Mummy, you're the best! :)
