To the new graduates or anyone else with a fork in their road....

one of my favorite songs....

Time of Your Life
Green Day

Another turning point;
a fork stuck in the road.

Time grabs you by the wrist;
directs you where to go.

So make the best of this test
and don't ask why.

It's not a question
but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs
and still frames in your mind.

Hang it on a shelf
In good health and good time.

Tattoos of memories
and dead skin on trial.

For what it's worth,
it was worth all the while.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

(music break)

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

Studying like crazy for Step 1. Here's a little cartoon to enjoy!

(I believe a third door should be added. Diseases you will only see on boards and never in real life.) :)

Hola readers. Sorry for such a long break in posts. Also, I apologize for the weird UMKC thingy that pops up when you go to my site. I have no clue why it is doing this. It does not do it on my computer.

Well, May brings lots and lots of studying for boards. This month I am offically on a "study month" from school. That means I have to go to clinic and meet with my docent, but the rest of the days are free. May 10-19th I will have the last few Kaplan classes in my course. I am looking forward to these classes because I feel they are so helpful. This month, I also am trying to work out daily, which is an adventure all in its self. It is going pretty well so far. A lot of mental exercise and a little physical exercise. Finally decided to practice what I preach, haha. :)

Last week, I got to do the coolest thing yet in medical school.....I delivered a baby!! I guided the little infant out and then caught all five pounds of him in my gown. How awesome! What a crazy feeling. It has really made me look forward to my OB/GYN rotation that starts in July. Still probably not what I want to do with my life, but still one of the coolest things a human could do.

Another poll for anyone reading....what is your favorite type of cookie?? Leave your fav in the comments section.
