Still alive and kickin in 2007….

January 3, 2007

I’m being a bit sad now as i’m watching the 1st episode of Celeb BB 2007.

Just had a busy few weeks. I worked Xmas day and did nights over the New Year weekend, which was busy but manageable. Our team was on-call for 2 days and therefore we had loads of patients when we returned to the ward on Tuesday. Thankfully we’ve managed to whittle down the numbers, thankfully by discharging them and not killing them off a la MG ward.

By working Xmas day i got an extra day of holiday, so i need to start using the days of A/L.

My future plans this month consist of: job applications for ST1, MRCP Part 1 exam in Jan 23rd and maybe go on holiday sometime soon. Oh yeah! and to get the DSLR camera i want and maybe do some locum work in my last job!

Dirk Benedict from the A-Team is in the celeb BB house— so cool!


The 2 day working week

December 28, 2006

Due to the extended Xmas holiday period up to Tuesday and me starting a weekend of nights from Friday, it seems as though my working week this week is only 2 days. Yesterday felt like Monday, but alas it was Wednesday, and today is my last day at work this week till 11pm NY weekend—god i hope it isn’t too busy, as it will be the 2nd NYE i’ve worked, though the 1st on nights!

Having been doubling my efforts to study for my MRCP Part 1 exam which is on 23rd Jan 2007. Still feel stupid, but i’m understanding how to answer questions better. Fingers and toes crossed.

My other plan is to buy another gadget. I’ve been thinking of getting a Digital SLR for a while and have decided to got for the Canon EOS 400D, after checking magazine reviews and internet forums. It’ll set me back nearly £500, but i may be able to get a discount. The photo below is of the earlier model, the 350D:
