Sittin here thinking I've gotta go to bed. My science board exams are on Tuesday and I've got to study hard and be focused. Every try to review 2 years worth of material...in a week? I'm giving it a shot. The good thing about med school is you get information over and over again - a slight twist on it or perhaps more in depth, but repeated. Lucky for us - and our patients.

All my classmates are hitting the 3rd year wall. Anxious to graduate but seriously fatigued from all the stress to perform. We're getting there. Week by week.

I must say the experience has been overall quite incredible. Would I repeat it? Nope. But becoming a doctor is becoming a lifelong student. I am prepared for that and look forward to continuing my education - outside of Bastyr University's walls!

August 2nd are my board exams. Think positive thoughts!
