Exams

Let me tell you a thing or two about how medicine runs your life ..
You have exams in 6months.
You begin to delay your life
You can't make clothes, you can't travel, you can do nothing until the exams are over.
You read and read but your confidence is never above 50%
If as a doctor you don't have a relationship with God through medical school,it may be difficult to ever come to love him.
Many scaled through by grace or kept repeating classes.
There is no carryover in medicine.
You fail, you resit
You fail resit
You repeat class
You fail repeat
You resit
You fail repeat resit
You go home! No more school.
You don't do semesters.
You do years
So you only go home when you have passed an exam.
It was always a dread.
As a PG med student
It's worse.
There's so much pressure to perform
You have to live life, deal with heartbreak, find a balance between work,study and other activities and still manage to look like you care what's happening in the world.
I have exams in october and I feel like I'm not ready as usual, like I will fail.
I don't have the confidence I used to have before
I feel so unsure of myself and uncertain about so many things.
I wish I had some more time to read.
I've done a lot of work,covered a lot of grounds while this strike has been on but I really need to get the entire thing moving big time.

xoxo

Braces and orthodontics

I started wearing braces in 2013 december. I woke up and realised I could actually do it. So I decided to go do something about my malocclusion. Yes I was pretty with it but it was getting worse. Off I went to LUTH. I was introduced to a fine intelligent dentist who got me on my way to a beautiful set of pearly whites. We aren't there yet but it's frustrating in it's own way. Nothing good comes easy they say. One thing I didn't anticipate was all the pain I would have to bear. Imagine having that pain of a toothache every other week. Complete with headaches and what not. Sometimes I feel frustrated like I'm probably not going to end up with what I desire but somehow I keep encouraging myself to trudge on. People ask me questions all the time. From the very ignorant most especially 'Aren't you slim enough ? Why have you tied your teeth' 'What's wrong with you, why are you talking somehow' 'I like your teeth, they're so fashionable, you...

Emotional verbal abuse in relationships.

I'm heartbroken Very heartbroken I'm considering getting married soon. But to whom ? Someone I barely love ? The bitterness and the pain of my last attempt at a relationship after 7years or more has left me traumatised. I can barely have a waking day without thinking of how I got involved with a spiteful person who had the mind to tell me he's a vindictive person and that he planned to pay me back for disturbing him to return money I lent him. Someone who said to me things that have stung and hurt for months after. I wonder how another human being could be so hurtful with his words. I really can't get over it. Now is just not the time to be getting involved with someone else. The pain is just too much. I don't know how I can possibly get over it. I'm experiencing heartbreak Not because I want to go back to the relationship but because I was verbally abused. Now I've said it I can finally come to terms with it. Verbal emotional abuse That...

Things I have learnt about marriage- It is not about how fast but that good things will always come to those who wait and do so patiently. I will never want to end up with someone I am not comfortable with I want to be happy and I want God to be the king of my home I must must must marry someone who loves God. The things of my past should never be allowed to affect my future I must always give people time to show how much they really care about me in order to avoid doubt in future because i will never stop doubting. people always claim to love u and then do the most horrid and hurtful things u could ever imagine.
