For those who would want to know

Christmas break was lovely. It was a nice vacation. Besides the episode of the mouse (shudders--I had this waking dream this morning that our tub drain was blocked by a mouse that had gotten caught and freaked myself out... Yeah, I still have issues), it was nice to be home, just me and the 'rents and not to think about school at all and work on things that I wanted to do. calm, verging on boring (except for the issue of aforementioned mouse and navigation bar adventure that I still haven't figured out), not much happened. Just the way I like it.

Of course, all good things must end, they say... And it did. School started again today, nephrology (kidneys), so I had to listen to three lectures about their physiology and four more tomorrow (gee, I can't wait!).

And I got my rotation schedule for next year. Here's what my life is going to be like:

7/06-08/15 OB/Gyn
08/16-09/26 Internal Medicine
09/27-11/07 Surgery
11/08-11/21 Surgery Subspeciality (I'm hoping to do Neurosurgery)
11/22-12/19 Family Practice
12/20-01/02 Christmas break (for some reason there was a glitch and I was signed up for Financial Accounting here)
01/03-02/04 Break
02/14-03/27 Pediatrics
03/28-05/08 Psychiatry
05/09-06/19 Internal Medicine
06/20-07/03 Break


Exciting huh? I did pretty much get the schedule that I wanted, although right now, I'm really wondering what I was smoking. I really front-heavied the load--Ob/Gyn, Surgery and Internal Med are the hardest rotations, or so I'm told (and which I firmly believe...I've had nightmares about them and looking like a fool and breaking down because I've had no sleep. And I'm doing all three right after the other.

It pretty much guarantees that you'll see very little of me from July to December. Actually make that May to December, since I have to study for the boards... And actually pass because I won't have any other time to study. I guess that means I have about four months to finish LNB and my website, eh?

I only have two rotations with Chris, the first and the last. I was hoping for more. At least with him, I'd be able to laugh and have someone cover my back when I mess up, but it looks like I'm on my own. And now, I'll rarely see him. How weird is that going to be?


But my spending three hours figuring out how to beat the lottery system must have worked, because both Chris and I got the schedules that we wanted, pretty much.. Of course, now I choose to doubt what I want...

Why am I doing this again? I seriously must be crazy.

Because everybody else is doing it

Found on just about everybody's journal. I'm late, but eh...

Finally bought the ROTK soundtrack tonight. I had hoped to get it for Christmas, no such luck, so I made it a gift from me. Not sure how good of an idea that was, though. I've been crying through it for the past hour now. I broke down completely when I listened to "Into the West." Some things just touch so closely to the heart.

It's a good thing my roommate's not here, or I'd have to listen to comments about being obsessed again. Love her dearly, but she just doesn't understand.
