Trying not to sweat the small stuff..
Really, I am trying. But I’m having trouble today. I know it’s just a little string of bad luck, but I’m frustrated.
Deep breath. Reminding myself to focus on the good. :) I can do this.

Many many thoughts going through my head tonight..
..and I truly wish I had time to blog about them all. But for now, let me just say - I love how often my own confusion actually comes down to fundamental questions I sorted out for myself over a year ago. Once I realize that, it’s like the storm that was stirring in my mind (or heart or soul or whatever) slows to a gentle breeze - and the harmony I feel within my own person is irreplaceable....

Dream Residency.. →
I’ve been oogling over OHSU’s psychiatry program for quite a few months now. Sure sure, I’m not even 100% sure I’ll be pursuing psych as a specialty - technically I made a promise to myself that I wouldn’t decide on a specialty until I’m on rotations.

Taking Chances.
Just a short note to remind everyone who stumbles upon this how important it is to take risks.

Why yes, that is an owl toy walking across my respiratory pathology notes.
It’s been a productive night, can you tell?
*Edit - I think I’ll call him Ards. Ards the Owl. You know, short for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. Dear God, I’m a nerd. :)

I'm no circus clown..
I’ve been noticing lately that my juggling skills aren’t quite up to par. Or maybe I have simply too many balls in the air to handle. But that’s med school for you, I suppose.
You want to believe you can be just as good of a friend, and sister, and daughter, and roommate as you could in undergrad, while still maintaining a 4.0 GPA and active dating/social life. But honestly -...
