October in review, for all of the things that I’ve wanted to say this month but haven’t had the time or energy to channel them out into the world wide web. Maybe it’s better this way. I’m not sure. I’m still trying to figure out how to keep this blog going while in medical school.…… Continue reading October in Review

Welcome to Phase 2
Last Monday morning, Carley drove up to my house and handed me a pink T-shirt. The back read, “Camp CU SOM” and featured an image of a fire amongst the trees. We were headed for Estes Park, Colorado where we would help welcome 184 new students to the first phase of their medical education. Contrast…… Continue reading Welcome to Phase 2
A Week in the Life

I remember thinking to myself, “how will I ever make it through this?” Somehow, I’m making it through this. We are two tests down, with roughly 3 weeks left and one more exam. The days pass…… Continue reading A New Rhythm
Be You.
I’m officially a 4-week old medical student. Not a doctor yet, but people continue to insist that “there’s a doctor in the room if I trip and fall”. It’s a strange feeling being here. For many of us this has been our dream for a long time. We’ve gone through the whole process of taking…… Continue reading Be You.
