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.

To Date

Very happy to say that I've settled nicely into the new place. Everything's set up and unpacked and it finally feels like home. Everyone's very friendly here. So helpful. Traffic isn't that bad. Places are close by. We get everything we need. The only downside is that there's no cinema here. Which means I'll be traveling up north frequently now and I can't wait. This semester doesn't exactly seem like a particularly busy one so am really looking forward to some traveling.  Just finished watching Northanger Abbey. Was checking my hair with the phone's front cam and one thing led to another and I took about twelve selfies just like that. Heh. I tell you the things I do when I'm alone. Completely hooked on Downton Abbey. Finished season four and half of season three yesterday. Can't wait for season five to start. Also waiting for season eleven of Grey's Anatomy.  I  have unlimited WiFi. No more quota nonsense so have been ca...

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...

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...
