Ah, Pediatrics

What can I say? It's a complete review of pretty much everything we've learned so far this busy, busy year. So my day is study, study, study. How boring. The business of running errands is complicated by the fact that once you're outside in the sun/rain/hail/snow you most definitely do not want to go home after you've finished, sit down at your desk in your dark room, head bent over papers and laptop frantically trying to stuff etiologies, manifestations, and treatment plans into your already over-packed cranium. The light at the end of the tunnel is that spring break officially starts with the completion of the pediatrics test, only 5 days away now. The frightening part is that after spring break, we only have the Emergency/Surgery module, and Whole Patient module before we have our first PPS to prepare us for the coming year of rotations, and then it's out to our clinicals! Clinical rotations start May 17, which at the moment is just about exactly 9 weeks away. So studying our pediatric-review-of-everything-we're-supposed-to-already-know is slightly intimidating because it means finding that there are BIG gaps in memory of what we've already covered...oh well! Power on to get through Pediatrics to our wonderful, blissful, carefree week off!
