As if a cake, card, and flowers weren't enough, one of the MR radiologists sent an email to a doctor he's acquainted with at MGH basically stating how I was as a student and how, if they could, they'd hire me in a heartbeat at Mid State. The doctor at MGH forwarded the email to the people who interviewed me. So basically... I got a recommendation ( Read more... )

Today was the last day of clinical. Ever ( Read more... )

It's seldom that I'm driving from Massachusetts to QU in warm weather. Generally, if it's warm weather, that means it's most likely summer. Which means it's most likely August and I'm driving back to school to start the school year over. In fact, I can't ever remember driving to Quinnipiac during warm spring weather (I generally discount Spring ( Read more... )

Say When

What a throwback.

I don't put my songs on shuffle too often, but lately I've found myself just playing random songs that I own. Funny, how songs hold attachments. Well, maybe not funny.

Well, last I checked, I was still sober.

Outside the North Haven campus building, there's a small pond, surrounded by a luscious carpet of summer green. Within this tiny little pond, sits a small island of wildlife. Spurred by the coming of spring, the trees of the island have begun to unfurl their blossoms and welcome the warm breezes of life returning. A picture perfect depiction of ( Read more... )

I must have been conditioned by the cold, dark months of spring (and end of fall) semester to believe that I should always been waking up in darkness rather than sunlight for clinical. Now, with the change of clocks and the coming of spring, when I wake up at 6 something AM, and see the sunlight streaming into my room, I have a minor panic attack ( Read more... )

Dear Livejournal Ads,

No, I will not become an ultrasound tech. That static filled screen doesn't look like a liver to me, no matter what you say. Give me my superconductive magnet!
