Diwali resolution

Eat less, exercise more and to be healthy. That's it.

Wishes

Belated diwali wishes to everyone....this time I got to spend it with my family(parents and friends).
Thoroughly enjoyed it and was really quite memorable.

Ramblings....

Its been 15 days post my thesis submission and still am not buried in my studies as expected. I come home, relax, watch a movie and hit the bed to get up early next day for jogging. I have been really enjoying my days now. Guess now its time for me to plan up and get busy. No more lazy days, movies and facebooking.
I really think I should start reading some novels/books. Old days of book reading which I really used to enjoy should be brought back (atleast my kindle eBook will be worth its penny).
more watches and pens. My collections are pretty 'awesome' now. May be for the time being am little satisfied and my grabby behavior has lessened a bit (p.s-you are always welcome to gift me tag heurer watch or a waterman pen :D)
planning to spend this diwali with my parents. Both my brothers are staying away  and I feel parents are missing us. Hope to spend a day or two with them and try some crackers this time (who cares about air pollution).
Miss my old friends and foes. hardly get any time for them and these days its just whats upp and Fb chatting which keeps us in touch.

Watchporn...

My watch collection.
Some of the watches am using right now in Pondy(few more in Bangalore). Just love them.
Each of these were either gifted or borrowed from my loved ones. A raft of good memories associated with them which I value a lot.

P.s-
My dream is to go like these to the opd once.wonder what those patients will think of me.

Dasara...

Once again dasara.
That time of the year where marathon Pooja sessions are held at home (ancestral).days when u spend ur holidays at your home town, making merry and having good food with your cousins.
I miss all of them now.
staying in the city doesn't give you all these luxuries. You get only one day holiday and rest of the days you spend working. That festive mood doesn't bite you and we end up spending that day off just like any other holiday.

Smile.

A middle aged lady walks into opd with a smiling face.she greets me warmly, quietly takes her prescription slip and in the end again smiles leaving the opd.
After few minutes I realize scratching my head that this was the same lady whom I had intubated and put on ventilator few days back.timely intervention and right decisions makes a difference to the life.
these are the few instances which really puts a smile on our faces here.

G shock baby!.

Yeah..finally...I own a gshock watch...thanks to a friend.

Quote..

"I will prepare and some day my chance will come. "

- Abraham Lincoln

Hurray!

Finally made it!..
Thesis almost in the final stage...few more days of hard work and it will be done.
Time to have a quick nap now.

Miss home...

Festivals are the days when I miss my home the most..those leisure times,sweets and the  joyous atmosphere. Miss them all.

Happy ganesha chaturthi to all....:)

Happy teachers day...

Two teachers who really made an impact in my life  were my high school teachers...MSK(maths) and MMP(Hindi/my class teacher too).
Mmp is still in the same school guiding and teaching with same enthusiasm.
Msk just retired I guess after serving as school principal for a short term.

High school was the period when I really developed my self esteem and I realized my true potential thanks to these great ones.topping my class 10th board exams proved as a catalyst in me.
when I entered 11th I had a sense of self belief and confidence which I successfully carried to my 12th board exams.(topped both state theory and entrance).what ever am today and achieved I owe a part of it to these great teachers.
legends in deed!!

Wisdom

"When I was young My dream car was a maruti 800 at that time "

-sachin tendulkar when asked recently by toi about His dream car.

Only a man with wisdom and humility can answer this way.

Lost a companion...

I was in final year mbbs(2008) that surprisingly my elder brother gifted me my first mobile..n72.
frankly it was a dream come true for me.n series were a big craze then and I still remember how people used to vouch for these n95 phones like iPhone these days.
Games,songs or taking snaps.I did everything possible with it and I must tell that till date all my cherished moments were captured in this mobile(internship, graduation,).
Today after listening to the news of ms buying Nokia permanently almost broke my heart.the brand I used to associate with will be no more and the company which was once leading in the market will be completely wiped out of the stores.my n72 is still working (and i still love it)and hope it stays that way for few more years to come.

P.s-
This Nokia episode just shows how selfish a generation can be.a company which was once loved was completely betrayed by its loyal fans just because it didn't match the technology and was not given enough time for a comeback.

Change....

If you can't fly, then run. If you can't run, then walk. If you can't walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, keep moving."

-Martin Luther King, Jr.

Just one month to go for thesis submission (took extension) and few more for final year exams(M.D) think I should pore upon my efforts more.
Daily planning is necessary and also little bit of micro planning. Divide each day into micro bits and put up a plan.if your planning is good (and executable) I think half  the work is over.u just now need to follow it with a discipline to achieve your goal.

Just another evening ...

Coffee...

Made it..

Jog..
Slowed down...
Brisk walk..
Jog in between..
Finally made it to finish line.!

Quote...

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

- Frank Herbert

Addiction

Old habits die hard.
Initially PC games followed by Xbox console and now mobile games(android mobile).I always manage to get  good new games which keep me engaged and really don't mind spending few bucks for the same.(bought few games from Google play recently).
after all what ever u spend on your happiness is always worth the effort.

Prosperity...

I may not be one of  the richest but at least am rich enough to buy the things I want and thus making be prosperous.
I may not be affordable to eat in the wealthiest hotels but rich enough to have three healthy meals/day.
I don't have a Ferrari but lucky enough to have my own vehicle to travel and thus avoid the nuisance of public transport.
I Am may not have the best looks but I have friends who like me for what I am and stay with me during my bad times...(no fair weather friends plz!!).
Am lucky enough to not have any disease or malformation so that I can peacefully sleep at night without any pain/suffering.
I may not be a famous rock star that people flock around me but am a good enough physician that people greet me often.

I should count my blessings...c the glass as half full not half empty or else just drink it!.

Campus ...

Had a quick walk and a study session in the campus park..quite invigorating!....

Coffee break...

One quick ward rounds over(self).Time for a coffee @ campus canteen..

Somethings...

Sometimes(may be always) something's can't be bought....

Patients love and their blessings.
Unexpectedly a patient improves.
A patients gift(as token of appreciation).
Guessing a rare diagnosis and it turns out to be right.
Unexpected cancelation of seminars.
