New Year


Happy New Year! Can't believe it's 2009.

I had a sinking feeling on NYE as this year is likely to be horrid. I have big exams in 7 weeks and then finals this time next year.
I have spent loads of time reading blogs over the weekend and see that my fellow bloggers are making lists of what they hope to achieve this year. I dread writing lists as I never seem to get anything done and then feel worse!

However, in a perfect world, in 2009 I want to:

1. Lose 7 lbs...how hard can that be but it's that last 7 lbs that sticks like wild fire

2. Stop eating cake and Bacon Wheatos. This would help achieve point 1.

3. Try to get off my backside and at least walk a bit, each day.

4. Get into a regular routine for studying, rather than having loads of last minute stuff to do. This one needs to be a priority or I am likely to have a nervous breakdown by the end of the year.

5. Finally start learning how to mix on the decks that have been set up in my front room for the past six years.

Bugger - knew I shouldn't have written that stuff down because it would have been exactly the same things on the list, every year for the past five years!

Hi,
Thanks for dropping by RN to Dr and leaving a note. It was great to add another person to the list of people who know where I have been and where I am going. Blown away by the fact that your not in Australia and that I have had international readership. Ta!
Well I will be sure to keep up reading your blog. What I have read so far is fantastic.
Cheers,
Cara - RN to DR

Hiya N to D,

I've just swung by your blog after the comments you left on my own (for which I thank you) just to let you know that, as a former nurse and midwife myself, I think your undertaking to become a medic is a tremendously brave one, and sincerely wish you all the very best for your upcoming exams :)

As to the New Years Res - how CAN you even BEGIN to consider even a modicum of subsistance WITHOUT Bacon Wheatos?! (*bursts into tears*)

PS: have added you to my blogroll! :)

About Me

My photo
I knew I wanted to study medicine from 5 minutes into my nurse training in 1992. This didn't go down too well with my peers but it has taken me eleven years to get my life in a place where I could apply to medical school, so I have paid my nursing dues! I was lucky enough to get two offers. I have been married for seven years to an ex footballer who is now a PE teacher. We have no plans for babies but I would love more King Charles Spaniels. I start medicine on September 20th 2006 and am absolutely petrified.
