It's November!

Less than 2 months 'till the year comes to an end!
Can't believe everything has happened so quickly. Another year and I'll be waiting for my posting and I'll be working omg.
Clinical exams tomorrow. New lecturer will be taking us so we're all a little nervous. After this it's another month of our last posting for Year 4 and then our study break starts and before we know it we'll be done with our professional exams. Really looking forward to some sun, sand and sea after that. 
Was back home for Diwali over the weekend. Food coma for about 3 days. 
Fresh-faced and ready for food, I wore a sky/cerulean blue Mysore silk saree that day. Felt so girly and grown up.
Everything's pretty much the same otherwise :)
Still taking pictures of sunsets everyday whenever I can, wherever I am.
Still watching movies and series online when there's nothing else to do.
Been thinking about getting a pet cat recently.
I've never been a cat person. I don't hate them. I don't dislike them. I also don't exactly love them. I looooove dogs. I'd have them over anything in the world but they're difficult to take care of in a confined space and they need a lot of time and affection and attention and did I mention time? Plus I'd have to house-break the little fellow and that would require lots and lots of patience. Not exactly something I'd have after an exhausting day at the hospital.
So after deliberating about it for a while I'm seriously considering a pet kitten. Something other than my plant to come home to everyday. Mom found one for me back home. Cute, adorable little fur ball with blue eyes. Vaccinated and everything. I'm already thinking of naming her Pooja lol don't ask me why. After naming our little Beagle at home Kulfi, I decided all the pets I get from now on will have Indian names. Pooja or Roja or Adya or something. (Adya sounds nice, no?) I'd have enough time to play with her and take care of her and bathe her and everything but I'm just thinking about where she will be when I start my posting eventually. I don't even know where I'll be going. I'd love to take her with me of course but what if the place I stay in has a no-pets rule or something. I'm still thinking about it. Pets are long term though, you know? So let's see how it goes. Would really love to have her she's the cutest thing and I haven't even met her yet!
Will decide before heading home for my study break in a few weeks. 
'Till then my little plant of 5 years will have to do I guess :P
More in the coming weeks I hope!
Or after I've decided on whether or not I'm getting my little kitty.
Meow.

Table Topics: Judgement & Understanding

Took one of my classmates out today coz she needed to get some things. She's been through a lot. Nothing I will disclose here but we had a pretty long chat in the car once we got back. And it's really true what they say about never judging someone before getting to know them. She opened up to me about everything that was going on. How she felt about things. How she was dealing with things. And at the end of the day it all boils down to understanding. There's a reason behind the things people do. It's simply a matter of accepting that reason and understanding them for it and them helping them get through it. You hear stories about married couples going through a divorce. It's really not an option anyone should think about after marriage. After all it's for better or for worse, right? But what if sometimes it becomes too much to bear? What if sometimes things get impossible to handle? What if that's the reason divorces happen in the first plac...

To Date.

I've recently been nominated for the Liebster Blog Award thanks to a friend of mine I've only known via Facebook for some years now. The blog post for that is still being drafted. I've been posed some pretty tricky questions /;) Haven't been blogging as frequently as I used to coz I didn't bring my laptop back home this time round. Didn't think I'd have much use for it. Things have been a little...crazy here to say the least. I'm actually twenty-one now. Though I must say, the word 'freedom' was never synonymous with this age. All I ever related to this milestone was responsibility. Funny. It's been such a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I could never completely describe it. I've been thinking about how I've celebrated my birthdays all these years. Two birthdays I celebrated away from home. My eighteenth, which was in the UK with Aunty M and Uncle T, and my twentieth, which was in Johor with my classmates and a once...

Of Ends & New Beginnings

Eleven months ago I was about 20% suicidal. A lot has happened since then. Graduated just three days ago. It was really very emotional for me because I never really thought I'd make it this far. I'm actually a doctor now can you believe it? Many years ago I wrote something about myself that I felt made perfect sense. & it really has this past year; "If anyone were to fall for me, I daresay it wouldn't be for my looks, but rather the way they get to be themselves when they're with me." I have learnt so many things this year. A lot more than I have in a while. I've learnt not to judge anyone solely on the way they look, because even the ones most displeasing to the eyes have qualities about them which you cannot help but to love and admire. If anything, or if something is meant for you, you will have it somehow. You may have to walk through hell and back to get it, but it will be yours for the taking if that's what God has decided...
