was fortuitously signed off early during my last placement and had some time go to exploring! nothing better than guilt-free adventure during what would've been the work week. also, totes schadenfreude but everyone was working and too busy to hang out :) this sort of has to make up for the massive FOMO i'm feeling as everyone is posting elective photos with reckless abandon. hey! i want to be sipping rum in the caribbean too! but, alas, there are adult responsibilities to be dealt with, and i try to console myself with the prospect of the big sur road trip and some stolen time in phuket later this summer. also, psyched to be doing elective in singers at healthserve where i can finally doctorlawyer (this blog title does not lie!) to my heart's content. looking forward to medical and legal clinics and look ma, i'm a qualified lawyer! and can actually take on cases pro bono and fight for migrant worker rights. my not-so-secret messiah complex is well appeased. shameless self-promotion aside, i was thrilled to have some downtime to wander around my 'hood. would wake when i wanted (no alarm, woohoO!) slap on sunblock and just walk. lovely change from the early starts i'd gotten used to. found myself gravitating towards richmond park, and joke that it's faster to walk there than it was to get home on public transport (not crazy enough to hoof it both ways!). no delays, just good ol' under performing tfl.
it was also about this point that i learnt my cousin had just given birth! which made the walk and river view extra special :)
lots of deer!
can't go to richmond park without stopping at petersham nursery for coffee and window shopping.
gorgeous morning light, worth the 90min commute home.
