UP-to-DATE

It's been about 8 months since my last post here. I've been busy/lazy. I am still a bit lazy in posting but I miss writing.. er, typing. Anyway, a lil update.. I am finally a 3rd year medical student. Yes, I am a year away from becoming a junior intern and graduating. But with that exciting news comes a few bumps on the road. 1.) A friend got delayed and some of my classmates too. So now, we're down to 130-something. I miss A. 2.) Hell week no more! I know, we should be thankful about it but scratching hell week meant squeezing 7-9/10 exams in 2-3 days. Stressful, indeed. 3.) Ward works excite me but they also scare the heck out of me. I mean, I'm happy that I would get to apply everything I learned but still, the thought of not being able to do things right scares me. I don't want to make a mistake. So, instead, I think I become the background student who blends in with the crowd. 4.) Our semestral break is about a week long. I know I keep saying that during my pre med days, I used to have the same short-vacations; but the difference was, back then, I came home everyday. Now, that I'm in medschool, I only go home during the weekends and that is if I don't have exams the following week.

*sigh*

But all is not lost, or in this case, bumpy. I am happy that I reached third year. I get to be friends with others and even better friends with old friends. I finally have a room of my own(no offense to my ex-roomie. i do love her. :) ) and I can finally manage a schedule on my own. It's a long road ahead and I'm sure it will get bumpier and a lot of curves... but in the end, I'm sure it will be worth it.
