Internship Begins

So I have cleared my Final MBBS Exam after vagabonding for most of the same year and travelling to more places in 8 months than I did in the past 19 years . It has been worth every moment of it. Not only have I observed a fairly good part of the country and its superficial functioning but have also managed to meet some really interesting people, a select part of whom I will continue to know for a long time. I will admit I'm hugely relieved even though I'd been telling myself that It'd be a new experience if I did have to put in 6 months extra to repeat the exam if the need arose.

The thing for me to remember now is that like every other major checkpoint in life or those that we consider major checkpoints, I start with a clean slate. I will come across new procedures, management protocols, senior colleagues and will have to interact with many more people on different levels and its going to be quite an experience for me . Pointer to self is to take everything that happens in a positive manner and move on . And to limit expectations more so those that I keep for myself .

Changing tracks completely, I've recently met S D, a visiting medical elective student from Dallas . He's matching for medical school residency in a months time . I've had detailed conversation with him on residency in his home country and it has only further stimulated me to pursue the same . That has been one thing I'm happy to clear out of my head since its been on it for about 6 months now. Phew it feels good .

I started studying behavioral science today and am quite satisfied with Day 0 (thats what I'll call this day the 26th of february) work and hope to continue and build up on it as I go about with the target of writing the exam ASAP . There is a lot of new information to take in and also some known information put in a more interactive format. I can clearly state this is going to be a fairly good 6 months for me .

We are going to Sewree mudflats early morning tomorrow. Sewree is a locality situated on the south eastern end of the peninsula that Mumbai is . It stands in contrast to the more heavily populated localities of mumbai due to its proximity to the dockyard and industrial townships . The one thing that lets it be more populous than it should be is the fact that mangrove forests are situated on its coast and migratory flamingoes arrive here in winter bringing with them a good deal of photo and videography enthusiasts and professionals . This is my first time to the sewree coastal area at dawn and I'm sure as hell looking forward to it .

10 am tomorrow is my internship orientation Day 1( I exit the peak of the student and start from the bottom of the professional worker pyramid now ) . Wish me goodluck and godspeed.
