Sorry for the lack of posting...things have been either been super busy with no time to write, or actually very quiet with not much to update on.
I'm officially done with Physiology and Epidemiology (biostats), which means I only have Neurology and Clinical Skills to worry about through the end of the semester. Grade-wise I'm doing much better this semester, mastering nearly all of my classes - not sure if it's the lighter class load, the lack of biochemistry, just getting used to the work load, or some combination thereof. Probably the combination - the lighter class load certainly helps me not feel overwhelmed in general, but I'm finding I'm learning a lot more with the same amount or even less studying.
Spring break was a much needed and very fun break - check out brittneytakesontheworld.blogspot.com for my updates on that. It was my first trip with all just friends, and I had a really good time :)
I found out I didn't get accepted into the Auschwitz fellowship, which is pretty disappointing. I knew it would be a long shot, but I had heard good feedback from Dr. Walker, and I guess I was really hoping for that tangible, "this-is-why-I'm-extended, so I experience this" moment. Getting into that fellowship was going to be the moment I was officially okay with failing biochemistry and having to extend. Now that it's not, I just feel kind of lost.
Other things are going well though. A and I are looking at apartments for next year, and I'm having super fun planning Med Ball and creating follies with everyone. Now I'm just trying to figure out what I'm going to do this summer - I kind of got the traveling bug from spring break and I'd like to do something out of the country, but I'm not sure if that's going to be best, or if I should save some money, stay at home, and maybe get some more physical experience working at a clinic.
Harrumph.
