DAY 275

Jun 3

1) Today has been a largely uneventful day, thanks mostly due to my own tardiness. I woke up late as usual, and went down for breakfast. Continued to tidy up my room as much as possible, until lunch time.

2) In the afternoon, I went over to the library to meet my friends. We took some time to calculate how much to pay each other for our long holiday together. Glad to say that everything is officially sorted out. My friends stayed back at the library, while I went over to Argos (at St. Stephen's Green Shopping Centre) to buy a portable hard drive.

3) My dad had recommended me a cheap 1TB hard drive for €64, so that was what I got. I've used it to store all the photos and videos from the trip, in order to free up space in my Mac. As it was still drizzling outside, I decided against going for my run today. Perhaps tomorrow then... XD

4) I had my dinner at Boojum again. Returned to my apartment for the rest of the night. I discovered (quite by accident) that the 2nd season of the "Attack on Titan" anime had already been uploaded. Cue binge watching haha. In all seriousness, I've finished half of it already so I need to start rationing or I'd finish too early. Anyway, that was my rather boring day, but I hope you enjoyed reading about it anyway. Have a nice day, cheers!

At Boojum today ^^

DAY 99

Dec 9

1) Today was another long day for me. Woke up early and had toast for breakfast. Then I went to the library, and did the final preparations for our OSCE's (Clinical Skills Exam) later on. At about ten, I went to RCSI to register, and we were divided into different groups, according to our Principal Seminar arrangement previously.

2) Waited for about an hour, before getting called into the exam hall. We were each positioned at a station, and once the bell rang we had six minutes to complete six tasks. I tried my best to complete the tasks, but unfortunately for me time ran out... I gave it my best though, so I'll just have to accept it and move on.

3) For lunch, my friends Andrew, Kuhan and Khee Heng followed me to Dicey's. Had a very hearty meal in the form of Irish Stew. After that, me and Khee Heng went to exchange money (Euro to Pounds) at the money exchange near Trinity College. We'll be needing this for our trip to Edinburgh after our exams finish. (can't wait XD)

4) Returned to Mercer Library, where I've been studying and relaxing for pretty much the entire day. I went to Boojum for dinner today, and had their pulled chicken (carnitas). Other than that, it has been a typical day in the life of a (first-year) medical student. That's it for today's entry, and I hope you enjoyed it. Thanks for reading and have a great day/ night. Cheers!

Triple toast for breakfast :D
