It's friday, I'm sitting in a microbiology lab review, and my christmas vacation is so close I can taste it. I'm so excited about my christmas break. I probably will spend a good bit brushing up my first year knowledge in rapid preparation for step 1. But I'll still have fun. I will be doing a lot of baking, hopefully spending time with my niece and nephew, and visiting friends. I'm still planning on going to Dallas and meeting up with Dr. Pathologist and Dr. Dermpath. I'm so excited about seeing them, and getting to see TERATOMA! So excited about the teratoma. But I'm also excited to see my friends too. I saw Dr. Dermpath a few months ago. I haven't seen Dr. Pathologist in forever, so I can't wait to give him a big hug. I just need to try try try try try my best to stay focused and not fail my tests too bad. I have a good feeling this round of tests will lower my grades a bit.
I thought it would also be a good time to announce to those of you who read my blog that I'm in the process of changing my last name. I have encountered many problems with my last name, both professionally and personally. So I finally got pissed enough and got a lawyer and I have done the initial paperwork to change it. I won't release the new name here, but I'll contact everyone once it's finalized and let you know. Hopefully it'll be in effect by the new year. I'm not looking forward to having to tell everyone, and especially the questions that will follow. But it'll be good to get it done before 3rd year so none of the doctors associate me with my new last name, and I can go into residency and have my medical liscence with a better name than my current one. I actually tried to talk my parents into letting me change my middle name too...but my mom had a fit since she was the one that came up with that name. So just the last name it is.
But, enough of all that. Back to the grind.
