Wow... its been almost 4 months since I last posted. Hard to believe that much time has passed. Man, so much has happened, I don't even know where to start. Let's see... when I left off I was just about to begin rotations. Now I've successfully completed 4 of them... FOUR! What have I learned? tons! For starters... I know I don't want to work in emergency medicine. Maybe it's because it was my first and I was nervous as h***, but I don't think its for me. I cant explain why... I just know. Anyhoo... next I did psychiatry. I just knew going into it I was going to be miserable for a whole month, but it turns out, I LOVED it! Working with Dr. Hartman was great. He is such a sweetheart and an inspiration! For those that don't know... he's one of the few totally blind physicians that are currently in practice. He's amazing! Next I did community health medicine and well... that's a story for another day. Imma refer you to Molly if you want the details on that one. Just know I had to put a certain professor in their place! I just finished up family practice and so far its the only place I can halfway see myself working. I'm not totally convinced, but it made an impression. I learned soooo much. Shout outs to Kristy and Mia for a great rotation. It was the first time since I started school that I felt like I belonged here [in this field]. Considering the price and the sacrifices... that's definitely a good look!
Enough about 'school'... time to talk personal ish. So... Life is hard! That about sums it up. And its not getting any easier. The older you get, I feel like the harder it becomes. Seriously! Speaking of older... I just turned 25 yrs old! That's exciting, yet depressing all the same. This is definitely NOT where I pictured myself being at 25. I guess I never really gave it that much thought, but this just wasn't it I know. So I'm setting goals for myself now. By the time I'm thirty, I want to be a home owner, have a successful career +/- successful side hustles (hey... imma need to be making 6 figures, I got expensive taste... thanks mama!), be in a 'serious' relationship (whatever that means, whatever that implies), strengthen my relationship with God (you can never be too close to him... growth is a continuous process), and just plain be happy about it all! I also wouldn't mind doing a little bit of traveling/visiting friends and maybe leave the country a time or two. If anybody has any suggestions or travel agents... hit me up! The next 5 years are going to be dedicated to preparing to live "The Good Life". Its time to go on a living spree!
Whew... this post is getting long; (plus I'm getting tired of typing). So I'll spare you the trouble of listening to me babble on and end this post here. And since I know how much you enjoy reading my thoughts, I'll make sure my next post doesn't take 4 mos to happen. Until then... take care!
