Midst Of Nothing

The Nelly Furtado album Loose is very good. I've got it on replay. I am just counting the days till the torture ends. Many of my friends in the year above passed finals and I was ecstatic for them and extremely jealous. They deserve it and I will be there next year. I am also looking forward to my elective, paying for the flights killed me. If anyone has any cans of food lying round the house or clean clothes send them in. Along with any good music. I apologise for the lack of gossip or general interest in this entry and I promise to do better when I get my life back.

Why do We Do it?

This is a question I get asked quite often. Sitting in the library revising for my 5th year final exams with the sun blazing outside. I am asking myself the same question. Why do we spend years taking endless exams and learning the skills? What is it all for? The old cliche of healing people and making them better is wearing a bit thin.

I am in the process of organising the return leg of my elective with a mini tour of Asia. Exams finish soon and I'm moving ouf of the flat. The academic year draws to a close and I am moving on to the final phase of my training. I look back to the earlier years and can comfort myself in the fact that I did have fun at medical school. Enough sad talk.

I want to see United 93 not least because Andrew Marr recommended it (political pundit for BBC). New music- Ne-Yo In My Own Words, Christina Milian So Amazin', Rihanna A Girl Like Me. Rihanna has matured on her latest effort and shows more musical diversity. Christian Milian seems to thinks good album involves recruiting Cool and Dre and making no effort lyrically. The new signing to Bad Boy Records, Nelson has a good voice. The hype is all about Nelly Furtado. There's a story that the tracks were so hot, the studio speakers caught on fire with Timbo. promiscuous girl will grow on me.
