Beautifully Stated...

- As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.
~Quote taken from Yi's blog~
I really like this quote because it refers to so many things in life. Time and tide waits for no man. Live life the best way you can. Be happy and make those around you happy.

A little over a week since I set foot back on British soil and it feels like I've never left. I was pretty much thrown into the deep end since I arrived. Less than an hour after arriving in my apartment, I was out laptop shopping. The next morning, I was back in the hospital, starting the day with a hectic Consultant ward round. With one doctor short and between 26-30 patients, 4-5 discharges and the same number of new patients daily, it's been non-stop. Nine days of work straight (thanks to me being on-call) with average finishing times of 7pm-10pm. Therefore this weekend off has been a lifesaver. Sorry for mixing up birthdays (10th of March, I'll remember that next year) and missing phone calls (Sue Ann, I'm still on the same number, was still working when you tried calling), hopefully next week might be better. There've been four mortalities in the past two days and too many newly-diagnosed cancers since I got back. Back to reality.
On a brighter note, Malaysia was fabulous. The weather was a little too hot but the food was scrumptious and the company unsurpassable. It was great to meet up with all of you, especially some whom I haven't seen for years. Thanks to the organisers and the drivers in particular. Luna Bar was amazing, I'm definitely headed back there or to Sky Bar the next time I'm home. It was a good meeting of friends; both new and old. The mini gastronomic tour the night before I left was unforgettable.
I'm loving my new laptop. Now there's only one more thing on my list
PS: A big CONGRATULATIONS for the good news Yi! Well done. Looks like I'll have to try and visit sometime in the next couple of years if we are to meet up before we reach the big 30 mark. Grin.
