It's Been a While
Yeah, I know, it's been a long time. Lay off me, I've been busy.
I was legitimately busy until October. For the past 3 weeks I've been busy doing nothing. As a quick recap, I did three months of orthopaedics, now I'm doing a month fo radiology. It was supposed to be an easy rotation, and I was going to use my team to study for Step 2 and get that over with. The rotation itself has been easy, but the hours are long. I'm there from 7:30 to 4 or 5 every day. I have a book that I bring to study, but I was hoping to get home earlier to I could do practice questions. Also so I could watch youtube and The Office and listen to music.
At this point I'm about 40% done with the year. By Christmas break I'll be more than halfway done. My application is out, so for the next month or so I'm going to be waiting for interviews. Then I will go on said interviews, and hopefully find the place where I will work for the next 5 years.
It is a time of transition. I'm close to being done with my 21st year of school. That's crazy. I'm 25, and I've been in school for 21 years. I've identified myself as a kid for that long period of time, because kids go to school and adults work. Now I'm going to be an adult (as I sit here in my Simpsons pajama pants and dog slippers). At this time next year, if you come into the hopsital, I could be the one that treats you. People will be lined up around the block.
Lying in bed this past week I came up with 100 things I wanted to write about. But now as I'm sitting here I can't remember a single one. I need to post more often so I can just write about whatever's on my mind at the time, instead of waiting 3 months and having to recap everything. I will try.
