I love what I'm doing day #128
I passed medical school biochemistry in half the time that it is normally taught.
I can't freaking believe it.
This must be how Conrad Stoltz always feels....

I love what I'm doing day #121
Today, I actually asked meaningful questions in class, I remembered applicable stuff from last semester, I swam my best 500 free ever, put together a kick@$$ video for a presentation, and I have memorized all the chemical mediators for an exam coming up on Monday.

We just did a differential for syncope. Based on the symptoms, my first idea for the differential ended up being right.
Guess I did learn something in preceptorship...

I love what I'm doing day #118
These last few weeks have been brutal. Exam after exam... after exam... after exam. And, there is no end in sight. I have five exams before spring break in three weeks.
Whew.
I'm just keeping my eyes on the prize at this point, hunkering down inside myself like I do at the end of a tough race, and giving it a little gas.
Also, see one of my new favorite blogs: http://asianssleepinginthelibrary.tumblr.com/
Hilarity.

I love what I'm doing day #106
I have definitely hit the hard part of medical school. Well, at least a part that is hard enough to make me wonder if what I'm doing will really be worth it.
It's kinda like starting out in a 10K race just a bit too fast for the first 1.5 miles. You soon realize that you can't keep pace and slow a bit. Then you realize that you are just a bit too tanked to do well enough that you'll be proud of the result. After all, there isn't much to prove in finishing a 10K race when you run twice that for fun on a weekly basis.
At this point in a race you can either, quit or keep going and enjoy the ride.
Today I'm trying to enjoy the ride.
