End of an Era

Wow we have not updated in a long time. Apologies, but things have been in a word - crazy. I intended to post these things awhile back (i.e. in June) but one thing led to another and here are are now. So here it is:

So school is finally finished. It's been a hectic year. Super packed, filled with exams, tests, OSCEs (horrors!), volunteering, research projects! GAH! IT's no wonder we haven't updated in the longest time. While I'm glad that school is finished, I am still shocked and slightly alarmed at how fast it's all gone. I think about it and it feels like it wasn't that long ago that I had just started working with Dr. BossMan. I blinked and I got into med school. I blinked again and first year was all over. Now I've blinked a third time, and here I am, all finished second year and working with Dr. BossMan (and a certain infamous Dr. C) again. 50% doctors. Crazy, exciting, scary. It’s hard to know how to feel, especially with clerkship looming. What does that mean? Well, it means they’re going to let us loose onto real patients?! Like the non-acting /standardized type!? I find it highly alarming that today on the subway a person was choking on their gum and I froze. What in the world is it going to be like next year when emergencies happen every day?! Double yikes. (Note: the guy was okay). Anyways, let’s get through the summer first before we open that can of worms.
