well, I have started pediatrics block. Two weeks into, I got the obligatory cold that every medical student gets from runny nosed children who dont cover their coughs. Thats okay tho, I hope that this will strengthen my immune system even more. So far, tho, I've done pretty well for myself. I've managed to convince the doctors that I want to do pediatrics forever, even tho I really don't want to.
Tomorrow, I start inhouse rotations. These will be interesting. I guess these kids will be really sick, so I am hoping that I can handle it. It always makes me really sad to see kids in less than perfect condition.
Hmm in other news, my mom, stepdad and brother drove up here from Florida for Thanksgiving. That was awesome, I really needed that. It was great to have someone to come home to at night, even tho mom rearranged EVERYTHING in my house and I can't find anything now.
We went to the Lights Before Christmas at the Toledo Zoo. It was all of 26 degrees that night, but the lights were absolutely amazing. Just brilliant. I think before my mom froze she enjoyed them too. lol
I started feeling sick on thursday, so I have been sleeping A LOT at night. On friday, the physician offered me a free flumist since I needed to be immunized, and I took it without thinking. Therefore, I was very sick all weekend. my nose just keeps running. But thats okay, at least I had the weekend off!
And I experienced my first rain/sleet/ice/snow fall in Toledo this weekend. I went to dinner with a friend of mine Saturday, and when we walked into the place it wasn't snowing, and when we came out it was. But I spent two years driving on Ice so I didn't think much about it. Well, while we were on a ramp on 75, the cars around me started to hit their brakes, and without thinking I did too. Well I fishtailed bad... i was so scared! I didn't hit anyone or anything (thank GOD!) but I decided that was it for me driving that night. I guess I have to be super careful now, because this isn't Bird Arena, and there's not boards around me saving my butt.
Anyway, thats been my life so far!
