The journey

Three weeks ago, I took a long train journey to the North of Scotland; Inverness. As I travelled I thought of Loch Ness Monster and the many people trying to find it. I was in search of something very elusive... to many. The title MRCP to my name. This is a hard exam with such high failure rates that many people would rather keep it secret that they are taking the exam. Of course not many new that I was sitting the exam since i had a reputation to keep.

The beautiful Scottish land was all covered in snow, the thought of the exam sent worse shivers through my spine. The chilly night before the exam one the longest ever endured and some how all my lost friends were calling me and was at pains explaining what I was doing in Scotland.
The exam day was not any better and the 2hours were all done and wondered why I had tried so hard, why all the sacrifice and worse still why did I try the impossible..
2 weeks later, my hands were shaking I checked the results online, I started off by checking my mates results and damn... he d passed!!! the pressure has never been greater, my heartbeat never felt stronger in my mouth. I got the courage and found that I had passed.
As I spoke to my friends and those preparing for the exam I spoke of great preparation, focus and practice... thats all rubbish its about your lucky day. Meeting people I knew were very good but failed the exam reminded of how vulnerable we all are to this great exam.
Monday morning was more interesting, having to ask for a new badge that would accomodate the letters MRCP to my name. Getting a new photo ID and feeling good about myself.

going places

Its nice to see that some former college-mates can give 'policy statements'. Kubasu was this a policy statement or a brainstorm session. Looks more like a monday tutorial. Its impressive to see some of our former college mates involved in great projects as in Mombasa and Meru. After all tornado did not do so much harm on most of us. If it did, it will take us really long to find. Maybe we should sue Kuguru Industries for harming our otherwise healthy bodies.

back in the days..

I was going through some of my old photos...I was surprised to see some people and wondered if they are still alive. I am sure some of have memories and experiences you would want us to share. I still keep on searching for the truth... but I know not where it lies.. Up, down and all around me everything remains the same.
