I'll be the one not paying attention

Third year is rapidly coming to an end. Now on the latter half of my OB/Gyn rotation and staring peds in the face, I'm happy to say that soon and VERY soon I'll be an M4.

Unfortunately M4 year means CV, personal statement, applications, airlines, suits, pantyhose, smiling, and an overall level of baseline stress. I'm excited to get to that point so I can get past it and once again breathe easy. I'm also excited to start doing my path rotations and apprehensive about the fact that I'm staring down the end of the barrel so to speak.

I'm very excited to be on the OB section of my rotation. Gyn was a bunch of surgery, which is just NOT for me. This is a little more tolerable. I have more of an opportunity to hide in the background and not do much. Although there is this one resident that I don't appreciate, and a  balls-to-the-wall attending that has captured my admiration. All in all it's overwhelming to think that I'm almost at the end of this journey. And I will try by all means to avoid delivering ANYONE's baby. ::shudder:: I'll be hiding and  hoping that if i can't see you, you can't see me.

So now that my attention has shifted to STEP2 studying and preparation for residency applications, I'm spending less and less time giving a crap about my current rotation. which can be good or bad. Hopefully it's just entertaining (some people have found that my filter has become nonexistent as witnessed by HemeOnc doc and the Flash).

I now will regress back into my nerdhole. Goodnight.
