Free 2 Be... : Half way through MSK

It was another busy week, my mornings seems to progressively be getting earlier and earlier. Monday started with another anatomy lab with the upper limb followed by a visit to the hospital and a lecture from 4-5. Tuesday to the hospital nice and early and Em and I went to our past Geriatric ward to see patients and had a good session of examining their limbs where arthritis was present then had lectures until 5. Wednesday was a whole different morning, we had our rural clinical school interviews!! I couldn't believe how fast they had come up, i was quite nervous which i guess can only be a good thing meaning it meant a lot for me to present well in the interview to have a chance of being accepted. There are about 160 people applying from UWA and Notre Dame and only 60-70 places around WA, as far as i can see we all would be wonderful candidates how do you try convince the interviewers you are the one to choose?? I was a little flustered and felt like i word vomited in the interview but settled down after a little, i think word vomit is better than being stunned and not saying anything which is usually what happens to me so i have to feel a little better with that! The scary but exciting part is we find out whether we have a first round place this coming Friday!! i have my fingers and toes crossed :)

We had a few lectures in the arvo afterwards (although i needed to head back to Trinity for a calming tea!!) the last one didn't finish until 6.45pm... after getting up at 5.30am for a Pump class too i was pooped!! Thursday morning was a good experience at Rheumatology clinic where i met some girls my age with Rheumatoid arthritis, they are coping well but little thing like that make you realise how lucky we can be. It was so nice to break up the weeks study and meet Lex at Subiaco for a lovely lunch with Tilly too in the lovely weather! I always love our catch ups and wish we could more often. But it was limited by my afternoon lectures again from 2-5. Friday morning was again hospital time clerking patients, but after lunch i stayed at home and did some study. Kyle and I went out to dinner to the C-restaurant that night! I had vouchers from my 22nd birthday and was looking forward to using them. The restaurant was in St Martin's tower in the city, level 33! The views were amazing and the food was probably the best and tastiest i think i have ever had! Our waiter was so nice and quite funny too. I had scallops with pea puree and cumin foam for entree and WA Barramundi with olive tepenade and star squid ink ravioli with saffron sauce... i wanted to try something new and it did not disappoint it was amazing!! i wish i had the money to go back up there again :)
