I was just thinking today about how long it's been since I've paid livejournal a visit, so here I am. I haven't seen much of anyone lately because of school and work, and I feel so completely disconnected from everything going on around me (except politics; every 4 years I allow myself to be completely sucked in). I'm sure this sounds like another "oh woe is me" type of entry but I assure you it is not. While I miss seeing friends, it's actually been kind of nice to have some time to myself. It's given em the opportunity for some real introspection and self discovery. I'm finally getting to know myself and appreciate my talents and abilities for the first time.
School has been going really well so far this semester. I just finished pediatrics feeling excited about having kids, and now I'm in obstetrics having second thoughts. The whole physical process must be like getting run over by a steamroller. I can't even begin to imagin it, nor do I want to. Sure, I'll have kids, but I think this is one of those "ignorance is bliss" type of situations. Stress is beginning to mount though; with only 7 months left until I graduate, my future with the real world and its crappy economy is starting to sink in. 7 months from now also means four days off every weel, so I can't be too pessimistic. Just really, really anxious.
I'm not really sure where I was going with all of this...just a minor update, I suppose. I just felt compelled to post something.
This, by the way, is fantastic:
