Reggo diary stuff:
Medschool is much much much better than optom. its been 9 months now and I know I am in a much better place mentally. The exams are so much lower stress, the content is so much more engaging. Seeing the doctors in the hospital is so much more inspiring compared to what it was like seeing my optometry supervisors.
One of my mates from optom school attended an interview yesterday for a different medical university in my state and in the Zoom lobby before the interview, to his shock, he saw our old optometry professor as another interviewee.
Mans got a PhD, loads of published research, head of a comfy clinic where he gets paid handsomely without having to worry about retail KPIs, has even joined the American Optometry Association as a Fellow (which is a very extra thing to do when you're not American).
What a weird feeling. I guess in a way it gives me a childish sense of vindication, that I have made the right choice. Even with all that wholesome practice and research ,with all that teaching, it wasnt enough for him.
