It's study time.

Dang, there's a lot of stuff to know for finals...

I've got tons of things I can't wait to write about here. I'm actually making a list. But our class dynamic has now undergone a sort of a change as it's starting to hit home for everybody all that stuff they say about how hard med school is (despite my previous impression). Even for the more laid-back people in my class, it's study time like never before. For the first time in...ever, I'm spending almost the entirety of my time outside of class with my nose in the books.

Thanks so much to all of those of you who read this blog and those who have told me you check for updates on a regular basis. I look forward to writing a lot here over my Christmas break, and who knows - perhaps the odd post during finals as a form of procrastination. I'm excited for when I get the chance to write lots more stuff here along the lines of what inspired me to start this blog in the first place - interesting stories from clinic, and more about how they teach people to become doctors. Until then, I strongly encourage you to check out the other blogs I've linked to in the column on the right. Perhaps they're more balanced than I and are updating during this season.

And keep the comments coming!
