yesterday ...

... was the last day of our 10 weeks surigcal revision course. Somehow, we all got very sad (yeah, medics is a strange brunch!). Maybe it was the fact that the "studenty" chapter of our lives is finally closing, and somehow, we are all going to graduate, have "our own patients" to look after. 6 years ago, in-between all those exams we sat, being able to reach this point seems so far far away .. all a bit mind-blowing ...

... was also a very good mate's birthday. I haven't organised surprises for people for ages. Got her a cake with a candle to blow at the ultimate hospital canteen (not the most promising place, but we had 15 minutes for lunch, in between of tutorials). But it is wonderful how a small act can bring a smile, a sparkle to someone's lives ...

So, yeah, if you are reading this, be spontaneous today, do something which will bring a big smile to someone's face (as smile is infectious!)
