Al's Awesome Alliterative Title Alluding to Activities in Medsin

Hi everyone, I realise I'm almost a bit late for this now, so I apologise. I think Elly's completely on the ball when she says that it feels like we've been working together for ages and ages, but equally the time is going so fast!

In Medsin:

  • I have attempted to recruit Trainers for:
  • Medsin Autumn Weekend
  • National Conference (trainers and meeting facilitators)
  • Marrow AGM (just me! :( )
  • Pharmaware's AGM (email sent out today!)
  • I have attempted to raise the profile of TNT already having quite a few potentials (work in progress)
  • Working with Claire Thomas to develop the plan for TCT, Campaigns Day and the final integration of TCT and TNT
  • Arranged some IFMSA Training: Norway (13-15 Nov), Iceland (2-4 Nov)
  • Began preparing TNT application forms
  • Repping Medsin at the Marrow AGM (my final act for Marrow? :'( ) [I'll probably still go to clinics]
Out Medsin:

  • Met lots of drug addicts in the last two weeks (psych rotation)
  • Friend of mine broke up with her boyfriend so I went out drinking for the first time since Macedonia. Four of us, having decided that we were gonna go back to my house walked about 2 miles while drunk. Then she changed her mind and I had to walk her back 1.5 miles in the opposite direction, then walking all the way back I decided to ask a random guy what the time was (my phone battery had died), and another friend was driving past, pulled over and asked me why I was drug dealing to a tramp...
  • Going to see Up in 3D today which I'm very excited about!
  • Saw Florence and the Machine the day before the MAW.
  • I've probably done something else.. right? :S
What I'm wondering now is.. why is it "In Medsin", but "Out of Medsin"? Why the relatively unnecessary "of"? If "In Medsin" makes sense, why shouldn't "Out Medsin"? I'm making a stand!
