I Am Migrating

Saturday, September 22nd, 2007

Leaving Belfast to Sydney to start all over again was not an easy decision. Believe it or not, it was not any easier to make the decision to leave my Friendster Blog to a new domain. I will miss the the service from Friendster, emailing all my friends whenever I have updated my blog.

I have been looking for a blog site, where visitors can drop a message without needing to log in. The responses from visitors is part of the motivation to keep my bloging going. Dobbs sugested Wordpress, I think I shall give it ago.

This is about the 3rd time i tried moving my blog. Goodbye Friendster blog (for now at least). I shall move my old posts slowly over to my new site

GOT a JOB!

Monday, September 17th, 2007

It has been a while since I last
updated my blog… Just less motivated to write these days, and
finding Facebook quite fun. Friendster blog is lacking the ability
for the general public to feedback. Maybe I should move on to a new
blog…

My “Epic Journey”, the move to
Australia from Belfast, is falling into place slowly. Australian
Medical Council have decided that UK medical graduates with full GMC
registration can get full registration in Australia after 1 year
supervised training. No need for AMC exams! Unfortunately, NSW
Medical Board is slightly behind time with the red tapes, I probably
have to wait for a few more months before getting full registration.

I just got offered a 3 years Basic
Registrar Training job in Sydney Children Hospital! Excited to
finally progress into my registrar years… 3 yrs training job in one
of the best paediatrics center in Australia, what else can I ask for?

Sitting for Paeds Diploma exams in
November… Then the BIG exam in March, FRACP. Well… made up my
mind that it is about time to get some (more) letters behind my name.
Traditionally, Sydney Children Hospital  have one of the highest
passing rate in Australia, thanks to the extra effort that the senior
staffs put in to teach the registrar.  I sort of crash into the
teaching sessions midway through, the others taking the exam have
been studying hard for many months… I probably have lots of  catch
up to do.

MRCPCH is still a dream… Not sure how
to realized it…

Social life wise… got a small group
of medics friend. And a LARGE UniBuds family! Thanks UniBuds for the
great friendship.

Well… the missing part of my life is
obvious. Family members scattered around the world. There is no sign
when everybody can come together…

As for GF, it still remain in the
finding stage. There is no light and no end to the tuner at this
moment of time.
