passion or no passion

k so its like 'time to join post grad' period for me:-( ...dont ask tests and results and your friends results...medicine is such a rat race throughout!!!! nyway so though i have realised the funnny thing about the pg rat race in india is ... you have to work your ass off for like a year or two to have a chance at makin it at any of those tests, but the funny thing is ..most of them get so worked up and frustrated during this period of workin their ass off that they reallly dont care about wat post grad they join,or what doctor they become, as long as its a relaxed no stress 9-5 kinda job.wtf right?i mean i thought you need to be passionate about what u do..to be a good doctor ..to be a good anything!!! all these ppl who i figured are another level of hardworkin and focussed ..seem to be sayin they dont care what they get,what subject they get into,what they do for the rest of their lives.... how and why then did u work your butt off????i didn't work my ass off for the damn pre pg tests, i m not cut out for that cram till you die and no one cares about how much u actually understand routine!! but i want to get into md medicine and dm thereafter and whetever other challenges it throws at me.... but what a messed up system right..u equip everyone who has the focus to do it, just the opposite of being assets to your country and its ppl.most of them wanna pick peripheral dead branches and the others just wanna go off to the us or sumthin coz its easier and the money is good.so sad.i dont know its been reallly bothering me the last few days.
you know the other day i was talkin to a friend and we agreed that if u r not passionate about one aspect of your life do u think u can be passionate at all about nything.. i mean all those ppl who are just so 'blah' i wonder if they are actually passionate about nythin in life...sex,interests,work,fun.,..nythin.oh how boring if they are not!! nyway just so we are clear, i am very passionate about my work among other things..hahahaha...:-P
oh yeah and if i have another person come up to me and give me a time table for my future i think i m gonna explode...they are all like 'WHAT are u crazy?how can u do md medicine, you have to be thinkin bout marriage and kids soon...how can you think of time away from family and doing dm and all!!no no no,start being practical.pick up something easier dear girl, like treatin acne or sumthin!!!!' thats it!!!!oh my god leave me alone!!!
