Weekender

It's been a rather good week to say the least.
Assignments and tests are piling up slowly but surely.
Went shopping today straight after class.
Was looking for a comfortable pair of black flats. The lace one I had previously had torn at the sides (thanks to my gigantically broad feet) and the one pair I recently brought from home seemed smaller than when I'd last used them. Walked around for easily an hour looking for a pair that would catch my eye. Finally found one in Vincci. Also lace (don't ask me why I like lace I just do). Tried on their biggest size and it fit!
Went to Mango and looked around for a pair of beige slacks. Found a pair of cargo pants. Minus the pockets. Those big, baggy, comfy pants. Grabbed a U.S. size 6, since all my other pants from there are that size, only to come back and realize that it was way too big. TOO BIG I SAY. I should have settled for the dress I saw but no. I wanted the pants.
Gah.
Removed the button and adjusted it, making it tighter at the waist and folded the bottom and stitched it up.
At least my butt isn't floating in it so I'm pretty pleased with the outcome.
Went to Harris to make use of my book vouchers.
 This year the catch is to spend 80% of the vouchers on books and only 20% on anything else. AND you have to buy at least ONE academic book.
Whatever the catch I still managed to get the books I wanted. Hardly any Julia Quinn books available this time round which was very, very disappointing. 
Only found 'Minx'. The Bridgerton series was no where in sight. 
I'd read a number of interesting quotes by Oscar Wilde in 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' so I decided to give that a go. 
Deaver's 'The Empty Chair' was only seven bucks. From thirty plus to seven bucks I thought that was a steal and since Jauhie has told me so much about it I got that too. 
The last one by Trace Anne Warren is a new one I went for. I have this thing for romantic classics.
Lace.
Romantic classics.
I'm living in the wrong era.
Had my Starbucks fix and left.
A happy child am I.
:')
Leg still hurts when I walk. Haven't stopped limping yet. Was supposed to expose it two days ago but it was too painful so instead I got it bandaged hoping it'll heal a little bit more before I take it off again.
Anyway.
Cheers to the weekend guys.
Have a good one.
:)

It's Dr., Now!

It's been 10 days since my final professional exam & announcement of my results. I'm a doctor. & though I've been studying my entire life to reach this stage it still feels so surreal. It still feels like I need to head back south to continue with classes. Like I'm still on some semester break that is going to come to an end. Every so often throughout my day it hits me; I don't have to study anymore - for now at least. But then this though gets clouded over by other things & I forget. I have to constantly keep reminding myself that I've made it. I've actually, finally made it this far. As daunting as this whole new chapter - that's about to begin - is, part of me is excited to start. I'm excited to see where my future takes me, not only in which field of medicine I decide to pursue but also to which place. Big cities are out of the question for me. I realized, over the past couple of days, that since I've left th...

Damn Son

"Before you let a man sweep you off your feet, come here lemme talk to you.  Before you let a man sweep you off your feet, be sure he is prepared to catch you when you fall. You might be too much woman for him.You might be too independent. Too smart. Too much of a catch. He may not be ready for the weight of how beautiful you are. How gorgeous you are. How strong you are. He may not be ready yet. You, have to be prepared...to be yourself regardless of if he can carry you or not. So it's important for you to know his past. His attributes. His strengths. If he's prepared to handle how beautiful you are. How gorgeous, how so awesome you are. So, I'm here to tell you...that it's super important for you to take your time. Don't just listen to sweet nothings. Don't listen to words, watch actions. Because you're too fragile to be dropped.  Your heart is way too valuable to be mishandled.  And your brain don't need a bruise. So before ...
