Name:
Location: Singapore

A Singaporean girl who graduated from a Medical College in the UK and currently working as a doctor, spending most of my years abroad burying myself amongst medical books, speaking Queen's English and trying to adapt to life in Britain. But I still remain a true blue Singaporean who loves my plate of char kway teow and enjoys the sense of closeness when speaking "Singlish" to my fellow countrymen. Why "The Chinese Doctor"? Because that's what my patients call me since they don't know my name!

I feel terribly shit now, in a shock, lost, confused..and the list goes on.

I do crave for some hugs and I'm pissed abt knowing that NOTHING...yes NOTHING in medicine (or life if u like it) is fair. And exams are just rubbish and useless and not a gauge of how well u r doing, and sadly, all that affects how u're gonna get a job and how others see u.

My grades for Paediatrics didn't go well, and I have absolutely no idea why. I am darn sure I DID WELL for it, and I normally know when I'm totally rubbish (like in Psych). It's scaring me now because I'm so worried I won't make it to the end when medical school is eagering trying to kick people out.

I'm so losing confidence in myself after this.

And it is affecting me such that I feel so sick about going to the wards in the afternoon. I know I have to just ignore it and get on with what I have to do, but I honestly feel like having a good cry and go to sleep, and that's something I don't want anyone here to know. (but my tears are abt to roll out anytime now)

It's always at times like this that I start thinking "I do hate medicine lots. To hell with it!"
