As if I have nothing else to do...

So you're probably wondering how I have time to blog when many of you have heard me say on numerous occasions "I can't; I'm busy; I have school." But after finishing my third rotation of clinics, I realized that many people that I love are often sitting in the dark wondering what has been going on in my life and I thought doing a blog would maybe help keep people informed and maybe I wouldn't feel so guilty when I realize that it's been over a week and I haven't talked to my mother. No worries Mom, I promise I'll still call :) For me it's a lot simpler to sit down at the end of a day and type out a few words regarding what I've been up to rather than try to remember a week's worth of details in one phone call. I also thought that this would be a great way to remember all the craziness that goes on during my clinical year and to document my descent (why do people say descent, wouldn't it be ascent?) into adulthood and the real world. And just maybe a small part of me misses journaling and writing...

So on that note, I start my 4th rotation tomorrow: Applied Pathology. For those of you who don't know what that means (which included me, until I read the 18 page syllabus) I will basically be doing necropsy for two weeks. While this is a necessary part of education and should prove to be informative and educational, I will definitely be missing the live animals. But, I'll stick with our clinical year quotation: You can survive anything for two weeks.
