Ready to date again, I threw myself back into the love quest – one red flag, one perfect second date and one promising alternative at a time.
Endless Winter
Trapped in Malta through Storm Harry and a miserable winter, I hit a low before spring brought colour, movement and a much-needed reset.
END OF BST 2
As BST 2 ends, I prepare for an HST interview while protecting the travel, curiosity, ambition, and hope that make the rest of my life whole.
Loose Ends
BST2 kicked my ass. Between exams, lost balance and unforgettable adventures, I look back before whatever comes next in emergency medicine.
Equilibrium
After a perfect birthday week, I returned to an ED caught between grief, illness and recovery, somehow finding my balance in the chaos.
The Third Decade
Turning thirty, I look back on grief, love, adventure and wisdom – and the chaotic decade that taught me just how much I love being alive.
BST 2 – Checking In
I ask whether the life I built still fulfils me, what I have neglected and whether it is finally time to reinvent myself from the ground up.
Same Old
I find joy in Malta’s sea, fitness and writing, but hospital rotations, relentless studying and ambition slowly push me towards burnout too.
Falling Short
I face injury, heartbreak and a one-mark exam failure as the plans I had carefully built begin to unravel.
Brains and Brawn
I look back at how being chosen last pushed me away from sport – and how training, travel and persistence brought me back.
