Like a Wave Than a Wheel

This is probably my lowest point of my so-far clinical training.

Sleeping late.

Coming to the ward late.

Not going to the ward.

Not studying at home.

After being super hardworking during O & G, I'm currently extremely lazy during this pediatric posting. Sheesh.

I even had to offer friends money to motivate me to come early to the ward. This is really horrible.

I hope that I'll be in a wave with low amplitude, low frequency, and a high baseline. Currently I'm at a neutral baseline, but with a moderate frequency, and a huge amplitude. The trough is just crazy. This is definitely burn-out.

Lesson: Don't burn yourself out. Get a well-timed break, to keep you motivated for what you need to do. Learn to time your waves as well. Having the trough during the middle part of a clinical posting is...err...dangerous.
