You know how the word holiday can lift people's spirit, and quickly put them in such a good mood that everything seems great? Well I'm in the midst of too-long-a-holiday and I'm getting so bored. =______=
It seems like such a perfect way to end my 5 years of medical school life. I finished off my studies in May and it's now approaching August. So I had like 3 months holidays now. Perfect! I mean I did enjoy all my trips and all. I think I hit my fun climax too fast that now it seems so boring at small town PD. Everything is so routine! Tennis - Monday to Saturday. I'm like training to turn pro!
I don't mind the extra free time, I mean I still could go on holidays and stuff. I came back from Abu Dhabi early because I thought that I would get called up for work. And look how that turned out. Freaking '!@#$$%^'. Very, very pissed indeed. Cause I don't know when I'm going to be called in and I have to like be on standby cause if say letter comes this week, next week will be induction and the following week I'd start work. So what to do what to do? =( How to go on holiday like that?
The other thing I dread about being here is that, being continuously scrutinized by the aunties and uncles. I mean at first it was fun answering those questions. But then being asked like almost every single day, 3-4 times at least it's like give me a break! =( Example, 'Oh Karleen, you're back!' 'How long will you be back?' 'Congrats! So when you're starting work?' I mean you get the picture. This isn't the part that I dread. It's when I see back the same uncles and aunties and they go like this. 'Oh you're still here?' 'Still haven't work yet?' (say this with like a disapproving tone). Maybe I think too much. But then again to get this more than 10 times? I'm resorting to hiding in the house now.
However, everything does have its silver lining. I mean with me back home, I can see how happy my parents are. I could help out at home, help my dad with coaching and it just puts a smile on their face. So I think I should just enjoy this time. I'm still human, I had to voice this out somewhere. If I were to say this in front of my dad, he'd most probably go like 'you're bored spending time with papa dear?'. I mean how can you answer that question.
So after all the complaining (sorry about that), I do feel much better. I'm planning on painting the front gate of the house. Lol. Yea I'm that bored. So till the next post!
