Ever since I started working, I feel like there is just not enough time. I think I am not as organised as I was a medical student.
You leave home early in the morning, you come home in the evening and then you have to cook (well, I don't cook that often heh), have dinner, do chores, sleep and do it all over again the next day.
It's so much different to being a student. Back in my medical school years, I can happily study whenever I want to throughout the day. Now, I have to work during my hours and I can't just disappear to the library to study whenever I want to. I have to hang around, I have patients under my care, I have expectations that I have to meet. And I also have this noisy bleep. It is a really stressful environment. But yeah, working in Malaysia would definitely be more challenging.
After months of working, I began to appreciate of how my Mum could cook after coming back home from work when I was at school. All those delicious food that Mum cooked for us when we were younger even after she had been working hard at UiTM. If I were to cook everytime I get back from work, I'd be exhausted. Alhamdulillah, I have a lovely wife who is awesome at cooking :) And I always encourage her to cook extras so she doesn't have to cook the next day. Whenever I come home after work, sometimes I feel like just wanting to lie down for hours cause it's just too tiring. And weekends is the time to chill and sleep.
It is now my 5th month of working and you might think that I'm getting used to it already. Well, not really. Heh. I always need to go sleep early at night and even then, it's still not enough. I get sleepy the next day every now and then. I think this is normal (I hope so). This is the Foundation Year Programme; I'm looking forward to finishing it and move on to something that I hopefully would enjoy doing, iA. This stressful period won't last long, it will get better.
So yeah, working life is definitely busier. I mean..just look at my blog. I still have lots of posts to write before the year ends. This post probably doesn't really have much to say, apart from the fact that I'm starting to write back, slowly but surely. And I shouldn't make my working life as an excuse for not writing...
Hi Wafi.. welcome to the club.. ;) Working life definitely does that to you. But yes, it will pass (or will it?).. or at least you'll adapt to that kind of life eventually and trust me, you will :) May you and Sarah help each other grow and make each other happy in the process. My salam to her.
