Hey guys - I'm a med student in Sydney and loving studying medicine. But in the meantime I'm certainly head over heels into climbing, so check out our blog here and also our training site (links on the right!). Enjoy! Support us and comment if you like what we're doing - and if you want things to be mixed up, then let us know too!

WOW ITS HARD TO KEEP BLOGGING DURING SEMESTER

I honestly thought that in my last semester of medical science I'd have a little bit more free time considering that I'm only really doing two core subjects, with two general educations. General educations are supposed to be rather time-UNconsuming, but instead I find myself wrapped up in the overall struggle to ensure that my results remain somewhat alright in order to keep my GPA competitive for the overall struggle that it is to make it into med.

Anyway, I write this just to say that i finished reading "The Omen Machine" by Terry Goodkind in the last few days. AMAZING. I was a huge fanboy of the sword of truth series, which turned out to be pretty much the best series I ever read, and this book certainly didn't disappoint. Sure, it seems that at times, Goodkind seems like he's getting back into things and it's a little bit slow here and there, but still, how can you reject any writing about a guy who has a gift that he doesn't know how to use, is incredibly powerful and is apparently surrounded by the most powerful, most beautiful women in the world? Whilst this book lacks some of the beautiful trickery seen in the earlier books, it doesn't disappoint overall. Get it and have a read.

And finally, this is a procrastination post. To hopefully be followed by an e-mail from GEMSAS or whatever it is saying that I hopefully got an interview somewhere. Somewhere where I will be fortunate enough to do med. yes...
