Hello? Anyone around? I'm lonely and scared. No one's online - well I mean *people* are online, but not anyone I'd want to talk to. And I'm almost pretty sure none of them will be of any help. Most probably some generic answer - don't worry, don't be nervous, you're going to be alright. I might as well record that down on a voice recorder myself eh. Parents are out too, at least my sisters are around. Have no idea what's happening, why the isolation is finally getting to me. I used to embrace being alone; now, it's hardly more than I can stand. The silence rings, reveberates, resonates. I think it's the insecurity of it all.

OK, final day is coming, I only have 4 hours left to study. Don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight though. There's nothing else for it; this is the final dash, it's now or never, to do myself some justice.

Thing bout cofm is that it's such a strange subject to study. I mean, yes - there *are* things to study, like what's a cohort study vs a case-control study, what the industrial poisons are and whatnot, but more than half of it seriously is subjective stuff - to put it crudely, common sense.

Time to cast off my individuality, my personality and my beliefs and put on the shroud of political correctness, the crown of universal love, caring and empathy, and wield the sceptre of omnipotence with which I can change the beliefs, fears and ultimate fate of patients in the nation.

In fact, to put it simply - I'm scared. Really frightened of what's to come for the exams.

I need divine intervention, I need help, I need a higher power to guide my thoughts, and my pen.
