intern update

Oh, universe. You heard my agonies of indecision between Canberra and Sydney, didn't you? HAHA. HILARIOUS.

My NSW intern offer is for Wollongong, which is an hour south of Sydney and therefore a fair way north of Canberra (2.5 hours by car). There are lots of good points about it -- the training program itself looks great, I must say, and it's a very pretty little coastal city with muuuuch cheaper rent than Sydney itself -- but Facebook is full of people cheering about their city placements, so I'm retaining the right to feel a bit sullen.

Second-round offers from Canberra haven't come out yet, either, so I have nine days in which to sit on my hands and play the waiting game.

Fear not, Sydneysiders -- I'll be heading up most weekends for food adventures and socialising, I'm sure :)

I remember you jumping for joy when you got the invitation to med school. :) Oh how time has flown, LOL, and how many hours of studying you now have under your belt.

Congratulations, almost-Dr-Fahye. :)

I understand your pain, all my FB peeps cheering about their jobs in London and me ending up in a little coastal town several hundred miles away. But huzzah! Job with awesome training program!!! That's the most important thing, no? :D

It is! We should spend the years writing each other long letters full of junior-doctor woe & hilarity, I love sending snail mail.
