Week Twelve

Dear Harri,

Oh dear, late again! I think I'm becoming Ellie as recently I've just become late in life for everything .. not good ! The film trailer looked hilarious.. I like the interactiveness Harri ;). Might see what I can do over next couple of weeks!

On Friday of last week was our big assessed presentation (when I say big .. like 2% of whole thing but it felt big at the time..). And our group wanting to get a bit of an edge, so we thought we'd go in look of an epidural needle as a visual prop and any extra info. So we went to the women's hospital and managed to blag our way into the delivery suite. All the time with me saying 'we shouldn't be here, we should go back' like a proper wimp. But we managed to get to reception there and asked if we could speak to an anaesthetist. It turned out Tim, a registrar anaesthetist was just about to start his lunch break and so we were lead to the anaesthetists room and given tea. Gradually more and more people came in for their lunch break and all started inputting on what was being said and so we ended up staying for an hour! Thursday was IP day and there was again a 'banter group' , so we had to close our eyes as we were lead from a hot beach, through a candy cane forest to santa's grotto and when we opened our eyes our of our m group was there dressed as santa !

On Saturday was our Christmas meal! Louise who is this amazing amazing person who cooked for us :), organised everything. We dressed up all nice and ate so much that I did go and put on trackies afterwards! We opened our secret santas and I got Forest Gump and 50 first dates dvds:). I then went off to this music concert, mainly for the mince pies and carols at the end , but it was really good and the christmas spirit was definitely around!

This week's been pretty good , had my latest start on monday, 2 :), and the whole day off today! I went shopping on both, monday only to tesco but I bought some christmas presents there. Then today I went to the German Christmas Market and Bull ring. Then to tesco again as its the beeches medics Christmas meal tonight and we bought all the food. We are having christmas chicken ! In fact I went to Tesco last night as well. We were planning to go to the carol concert in a place called Selly Oak but the train was cancelled and the next was delayed. So we decided Christmas film and ice cream was an equally good option! So we headed round to Lizzie's flat and watched Notting Hill, but ended up chatting about housing issues and various other things most of the way through so I still can't say I've properly watched it. Then I quickly popped in on Hafsah, (her room was disgusting though), before heading to bed.

Hope you had a good night last night !

See you soon
