Indian Medic

It’s been a while since my last post, not much has been happening. Maybe I was in the ‘no-bright-ideas-for-a-post’ phase.
Then the Cricket World cup 2007 is on. After a humiliating loss to Bangladesh in the first match, the ‘Men in blue’ have made a stunning comeback with their 257 runs win over Bermuda breaking a few records on the way. It was one of the most awesome matches I have ever witnessed. All of them made those sixers and boundaries seem so effortless. And just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, Captain Rahul Dravid, who I never considered to be much of a sixer person, finished off the innings in style with a huge one.



And oh yeah, I’ll be starting my new job any time now. I interviewed for it last week. I am yet to get the word officially but a friend of mine already employed there have me the heads up. The post is of a Junior medical officer, sort of a house job / residency post. The hours are going to be difficult as is the workload. I might not get much time for studying which is in a woebegone state as it is. The pay is only average. The only good thing about the whole deal is that the hospital is part of the DNB programme and if I manage to clear the Primary entrance test, being employed there already might marginally improve my chances of getting in.

What I need probably is a crash course in time-management if I am to concentrate on both the job and the long-term goals.

UPDATE: - It is official. I got the call this afternoon. I have to go for a medical fitness test on the 23rd and will be employed as of the 24th of March.
