My Next 6 Months (Post Housemanship)

What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months?

Related Posts:

At the time of writing this article, it is the 8th of April 2025, Day 644 of my Housemanship Journey. I have just completed my Fifth Posting in Medical and is currently on leave as well as due to begin my 6th and Final Posting in Emergency Medicine on the 11th of April 2025.

One posting or rotation lasts for a total of 4 months if there is no extension, for House Officers.

Thus, it’s safe to say that for the upcoming 4 months, my focus would be on leaving and enjoying my final posting and the challenges I would most probably face then would be the completion of my logbook, preparing my presentation for CME and preparing for my end of posting assessments.

But how about for the subsequent 2 months after that?

That’s a grey area for me.

First of all, I do not know myself on the department that I would want to serve in as a Medical Officer as I enjoyed every posting that I have ever rotated in.

Next, the state or hospital that I would be interested in practicing in for at least the next few years. Currently, I am practicing in Hospital Umum Sarawak, otherwise known as Sarawak General Hospital or “SGH”, in Kuching, Sarawak.

Personally, I would like to stay back over here and serve here rather than to go back as I absolutely love it here and feel like this is where I am meant to be.

However, things might change in the future considering that I would want to get married and my partner is living in Peninsular Malaysia. That’s one as well as the consideration of my parents, having grown up as an only child.

Thus, a grey area for me, nevertheless. Me, being comfortable with procrastination has pushed this thought to the back of my head and refused to entertain since I have to submit my full MMC application by the 13th of April 2025.

This means, I have to set my mind on a department as well as my choice of state (location) or hospitals of choice.

Oh dear…

What is your favorite drink?

As the title entails, it is Iced Tea and Cold Coffee.

1. Iced Tea

I fell in love with tea, green tea, black tea and oolong tea in particular when I was 14 years old.

At that time, I was looking into drinks to aid my weight loss and I came across green tea and oolong tea being suitable drinks in facilitating weight loss when consumed without sugar.

Thus, I brewed my first proper sugarless green tea and fell in love with the taste. Ever since then, I started drinking it on a regular basis and it has pretty much replaced water for me.

Did it aid with weight loss?

Perhaps in the beginning, eventually, I continued drinking it because I enjoyed the taste be it warm or cold.

As I started working, I would usually prepare cold brew green tea in order for me to bring to work the following day.

Why cold?

The environment that I’m working in can get rather warm and considering I am a person who perspires easily, the temperature of the tea eases me and provides immediate rejuvenation.

Even after a long day at work, nothing refreshes me more than a cold brew green tea served in mason jar and a straw.

2. Cold Coffee

I am a HUGE fan of coffee, black sugarless coffee in particular.

My love for coffee began since I was in primary school, which I think is a bad thing since children are not supposed to consume coffee.

Back then, my mother would used to prepare coffee for my father and milo for me prior to my father sending me off to school and heading to work.

Me and my father would then switch drinks after he has drank half of his drink.

Then, when I turned 14 years old, I started pulling an all nighter or getting up at midnight just to study.

Eventually, I developed immunity towards coffee and is able to fall asleep even after consuming it. Thus, I merely consume it out of addiction and routine.

As I started working, as mentioned in my explanation for cold tea, the environment is rather warm for me to be consuming hot coffee. Hence, I would prepare my mason jars of coffee the night prior and transfer it into my flask the following day.

The title of this post says it all. There is only one answer to this question. All other answers are invalid.

Late Spring, early Summer. 75-80 degrees Fahrenheit. Clear, sunny sky. Low humidity. Warm enough to inspire us to want to jump into a swimming pool or a lake or the ocean or something, but not hot enough to be uncomfortable. Plants growing, everything around us alive and green. Yeah, that last one is more seasonal than actual weather but it helps paint the picture.

So basically the opposite of what Northeastern Massachusetts is seeing right now. It’s cold and snowing right now. Oh good. It’s probably more like a mix of snow and rain, and the forecast is calling for the snow to be replaced by down-pouring rain. Oh yippee.

So there you have it, the best type of weather is my favorite type of weather. Basically… beautiful. That’s the best. That’s the only acceptable answer*. You all agree, I am sure.

*In my humble opinion, right? It’s my blog though so from the blog’s point of view it’s the only opinion. Heh heh heh.

Rain, that sweet symphony on the roof, has a way of wrapping the world in a blanket of tranquility that’s just too good to ignore.

So, why do I love it? Hear me out.

The sound of serenity

There’s nothing quite like the rhythmic pitter-patter of raindrops to soothe the soul.

It’s nature’s own playlist, perfect for unwinding or getting lost in a good book.

Plus, it’s the best excuse to cancel plans and stay in without an ounce of guilt.

A cleanse for the spirit

Rain has this uncanny ability to wash away the worries of the world, leaving behind a sense of freshness and renewal.

It’s like the earth’s way of taking a deep breath, and it invites us to do the same.

The ultimate mood setter

Rain transforms the ordinary into something magical.

Streets glisten, lights reflect in puddles, and the world seems to hush, making every moment feel like a scene from a movie.

It’s the universe’s way of dialing up the ambiance to eleven.

A boost for creativity

There’s something about a rainy day that unlocks the imagination. Maybe it’s the change in scenery or the way the world slows down, but it’s prime time for creativity to flourish.

It’s as if the raindrops are muses, tapping on the windows, urging us to create.

The perfect excuse for comfort food

Rainy weather is synonymous with comfort food.

It’s a culinary hug, inviting you to indulge in the warmth of soups, hot chocolate, and freshly baked goodies. It’s the universe’s way of saying, “Go ahead, have that extra cookie. You’ve earned it.

Rain isn’t just water falling from the sky; it’s a catalyst for relaxation, creativity, and comfort.

Next time the clouds gather, remember to take a moment to enjoy the myriad gifts the rain brings. And hey, who doesn’t love a good excuse to stay in their PJs all day?
