So this is it....
The last 8 years of my life boils down to tomorrows results. At 12pm EST I will find out what I where I will be going for the next five years and what I will be doing for the rest of my life. Sounds scary enough as is? But wait there's more...there is a possibility that I go "unmatched" tomorrow which means I spend a year in pergatory.
In the end I asked to be able to go home to Halifax as my number one choice even though I had a great chance in God's country (Alberta), which seems weird considering the poeple who are dying to leave...but having been away for 4yrs, I guess there's no place like home.
Although this year has been pretty stressful, I can honestly tell you tonight is probably the most stressed I've ever been. Never have I had to wait for a decision which would have such a profound impact on my life. Unlike other jobs, you really can quit your job in medicine, it would take too long to go back and start again. And to think, that ultimately the decision lies in a computer algorithm run in Ottawa...even more comforting is the fact that as flawless as computers may be, its imperfect humans that program them.
This is it...I await till to tomorrow to find out my destiny...I don't know if I can take 14 more hours of this anticipation...Etoh help me....
