books i m reading concurrently:
- The ultimate make-over:becoming spiritually beautiful in Christ by Sharon Jaynes
- Under the Duvet (hilarious movel by Marian Keyes)
- Broken Children,Grown-up pain (understanding e effects of your wounded past)
- Psychiatry for Doctors. (cant believe i ve been reading this like 4 e longest time! juz dun ve d motivation despite all dat has happened!)
- the Runners Book of Training Secrets

i should be able to finish the top 2 books by tonight!

writing paper on:
- Develop a thesis on why you think society needs to be concerned for the development of mental illness. your paper is to be entitled "My philosophical belief in the causes of mental illness in modern society." just began my readings on it... so not a piece of cake!
- thinking abt doing one on grief since juz did course n i have ample real life cases at hand! too good to let up tracing their progress.

it's kinda uncannily "coincidental" (it's in inverted commas cos i dun believe in coincidents... i believe in... well read my previous posts!) dat it's gonna b like the 3rd psychiatric TB i'm reading, my recent developments in extended family, n current (f n y) situation dat this thesis actually even lands in my lap! hmm...

a word on grief:
tonight's episode of Grey's was on pain. the emotional pain? grief. and a patient asked Izzie how to deal with her grief... she answered "i wish i'd know". well, i hope all my docs-to-be and docs KNOW how to answer dat question.
