It's over!!! I'm done! I'm finally free!!! I'm a T4 now!

now what.

oh I know, sleeping in. No tests (except for that pesky step 2). no longer am I at the bottom of the totem pole. Okay, fine, I'm one peg higher but that's higher than I was on wednesday! And progress is progress no matter what you may say.

AS the first step toward enjoying my vacation, I had a couple of drinks at Joe's with my classmates, then I spent the last hour outside. That's right, I said outside. The pool was soooo nice. The water was the perfect temperature. Warm enough to not cause a shiver response yet cool enough to be refreshing from the heat and humidity. Yep, I could learn to enjoy this year. I can enjoy what little remains of my 26th year of life (though, if I'm about to be 27, this means this was the 27th year right?). And yes, I will be accepting gifts in all forms though money is the easiest to mail. July 22nd. Mark your calendars. Yikes. Time to head off to my hair cut. I had a dream last night about missing my hair cut and having to pay double the price to get squeezed in.

Waaaaah! All I want to do is sleep forever but I have to study for my exam on friday. My bed beckons to me "just lie down for a few minutes...it won't harm you."

Well, today was my very last day of clinical duties as a third year medical student! Yea! I went out to lunch with my team at pho tau bay. It was yummy as always. And yes, I had the same meal as always but it's just so tasty!

I suppose I should get to work.
