It's been a while...

... Oh yes, it has.

I was thinking of just deleting this blog forever. I mean, who cares what I'm thinking anyways?
But I realised that I care. It's a great way to get things off my chest...

I've just been doing the same old same old. Uni, home, uni, home.

The first week back after Chrismas I was feeling so depressed. I spent Christmas doing NOTHING. And it was GREAT. No PBLs to worry about, no lectures to go over (like I do anyway!) and no exams to worry about. It was pure bliss!
I started wondering if I had made the wrong career choice... Would I rather live The Lazy Life? Or would I rather be out there saving lives? Thank God MedSoc (my Medicine in Society placement at a Child Development Centre) helped me to make sense of my choice again. Attending a careers talk on becoming a GP (thought I'd explore some options), and seeing the GP so happy in his career made me want that too. The work at Uni (we are studying Brain and Behaviour at the moment - a real toughie) started to become, not easier, but more interesting... And seeing my friends again... It all helped me to realise again that this is where I want to be.

New Year, New Worries...

Well, just to update you, I didn't manage to find a job :(
I already work part time in retail, so just did some overtime there... the pay's not as good as temporary admin work, but it's better than nothing, eh?

Uni reopens today. I'm actually quite scared of going into the 2nd year...
I've actually forgotten pretty much everything I 'learnt' last year! That's not the most sturdy foundation to build up year 2 knowledge on, is it? We start with cardiorespiratory - let's see how it goes. Maybe now that we will be learning pathology in depth, it might be more enjoyable, therefore easier to remember... We'll see...

Good luck to those of you starting a new uni year :)
