The last day of fourth year/rotations was last Friday - my last two rotations were allergy/immunology and forensic pathology. It was quite neat seeing how they track bullets through people and the various gross findings in freshly deceased persons. At any rate, I'm finally done and I am looking forward to putting Touro behind me and moving onto better things, with my excessively high 300k debt following behind me. We have our apartments in Davis and Redding secured, and soon I'll have to do some PALS training, computer training, ACLS, BLS, etc. That won't be until June 19 though, so until then I get to relax and do some prep work for those things, and the wedding. The wedding is the last hurdle - I'm half excited and half wishing it would just be over already, since we've been planning it for months and the Bora Bora honeymoon awaits us...
Wish I had more to say. I'm sure some of my experiences on the rotations are worth reporting but all I can think about is wanting to get away from Touro and start earning money. I'm tired of just racking up debt in an overpriced institution (when you look at the national averages...) and standing in rooms while doctors and patients interact. I'm tired of waiting and watching and want to start DOING. Yes, it comes with responsibility, stress, and long hours, but I want to start moving forward in my life. This is a big year in terms of moving forward, and I want to get on with it! Graduation is June 2, tomorrow I'm picking up my regalia. Soon... soon...
