My career and personal life is in limbo. Things can only improve from here.

It's been a long while since I made an entry to this most excellent of blogs. The reason for this is that there wasn't anything to write about anyway. For the past few months since the Hong Kong trip, all I did was get up in the morning, either go to the clinic if I had a clinic day (Thanks Petite and Rose!) or screw around at home, then work in the evenings as the world's greatest editor of medical transcription crap. Add a few minutes of pr0n (Minutes? Yeah right!) and a few hours of TV and the picture of my life is complete.

Then I got fired from my job last week.

They ( the douche-bag manager of the MT department) wanted someone office-based and probably willing to work for less than what I was getting. I'm currently at the end of my last 2 weeks with the company and surprisingly, I'm not angry or bitter. I have to admit that I'm going to miss the money but the fact is I'm a bit relieved to be out of the editing business. It was getting boring and I was enjoying my few clinic days (Thanks Petite and Rose!) plus I was getting tired of always rushing home at the end of the day to finish my workload before 10 pm (7 am in California).

What I am is a little bit depressed. With the loss of the job, I realized that I've been sitting on my ass too long and it's time to get up and be a doctor. What the hell was I doing editing other doctor's notes when I should be working on becoming the one whose notes are being edited? (Hmm. Pangit at OA ng pagkasabi ko nun ah, pero you get the point di ba?)

So right now, I'm just waiting to finish my last two weeks then I apply for a moonlighting job in a hospital, read Harrison's 16th edition cover to cover, and finally take the first step on getting training in the US. Time to get busy.

As for the personal life thing...you know how it is. (!@$$%^%!!!)

Bahala na.
