WHEEEEE!!!

posted in Uncategorized |

It is official! Julia has passed her second year of medical school!!!!

I’m so excited! No more finals. No more classes with droning teachers. None. It’s rather weird, actually. For the past 19 years of my life, that’s what I’ve done. Gone to school. Sat in classes. Listened to teachers. Taken tests. And now, it’s a shift from theoretical to the practical–I’ll be learning from patients and doctors in a hands-on version for the rest of my life. Wow.

I’ve always been weird–I hate the last day of classes. As much as the first day of class. Mostly because it represents this abrupt change in my life that I have no control over. And I loathe change. So, now I’m feeling this bittersweet feeling because, it is over, and I can’t get that part of my life back again. I won’t be seeing my classmates as a group until fourth year. Honestly, someone could drop out and I wouldn’t even know it. It’s a weird sensation–I’ve spent so much time with these people and now, I’ll only see the six people who share my rotation. It makes me sad.

I start board study tomorrow. 😛 I guess things don’t change THAT much.

      Thanks, Tay! It sure feels good.

      I love your icon, I’ve been admiring it for a while. Is that you?

        I wish. No, I didn’t even make this one – Arwen Elvenfair made it as a base for Valentines day, And I like it too much to do anything at all to it.

      Thanks! I will!

      Oh, I’ve been meaning to ask you–what book did your book club finally decide on? Was it a good meeting? Did you enjoy the book?

      It looks like I’m coming back east in a month to visit my friend–but sadly, she’s just moved to North Carolina. I was so hoping that we could meet up for lunch or dinner and finally meet. 🙁 DC and area is still high on my lists for residency–so maybe sometime!

    Good luck with the studying that you still have to do.

      For Christmas, my sister and I made National Park quilts for my parents, sister and brother-in-law, and niblings. 6 of them were small lap quilts, with a simple print, batting, and a backing that we sewed. The last was a queen size quilt for my sister’s camping trailer – it was a challenge putting it […]
