finalist!!

i am a finalist in the literary category!! obviously capitals are not a prerequisite.

but actually i'm honoured and inquisitive about how i compare to my very excellent co-finalists. now, believing as i do that the only thing worse than a politician is a lawyer, i morally can't campaign actively for my readers to vote for me. however, what i will say is that if you truly think i deserve this honour, please do vote.

for those who don't know my writing, i have decided to select a few posts that i thought weren't too bad.

how to wake up.

what to wear.

what not to do in front of the prof.

an icu patient.

a student's story.

a south african perspective.

anyway, please only vote for me if you think i actually deserve the award. if not, please vote for whoever you think does deserve the award.

  7. I read 'A student's story' off all scrubbed up (my intro to medblogs) didn't realise it was your posts. I get anxiety attacks just thinking about my upcoming 2wk urology rotation thanks to the story.
