I just want to announce to the world...

October 8th, 2012
That I have officially successfully completed and passed my final, most gruelling, exams ever... that at the end of this year, I will have completed my medicine degree!!! (You can call me "Dr" after I graduate early next year, if you were wondering... :P)

The reason why I am posting this here on 365 specifically is because I've been through some incredibly rough patches this year, and almost not made it through my studies... but the continual feedback and support and encouragement from this very community was a big part of what kept me going! I keep saying that this is by far one of the most open, supportive and friendly website communities around, and each one of you is responsible for making that happen (and I suppose Ross too!).

Feels weird to not have to constantly have my nose in a book studying any more... Surreal, actually! But now I can more closely focus on my favourite hobby in the world :)

Also my facebook page! I can't get over how much support it's getting. :) I'm getting close to 400 likes - crazy! Head over and check it out if you like :)

Congratulations Dr! I was a nurse and later Health Visitor. You will find that this is just the beginning though as there is always so much to learn especially as new treatments etc come on board. It will be nice though to have more time for photography!
October 8th, 2012
Congratulaitons! Do you still have residency to complete? What area are you going to specialize? Family, Internal med, other? I hope you continue to find photography as a means to reduce stress.
