Friday was the last day of my internal medicine rotation. I've now finished Psychiatry, Surgery, Pediatrics and IM. OB-Gyn and Family Practice left. And then I get to do it all over again, but with more choice and options, and higher expectations. And then I get to do it for a few more years as a resident. And then...maybe then, life will be sane again.

Now that I've caught up on my sleep and sanity (6 hours a night for the last four nights! woohoo), I continue to feel comfortable with choosing internal medicine. I worried a bit that it had tired me out so much that I just would go running away as soon as I could. But I didn't. I don't agree with the system and why, especially in surgery and internal medicine, students and residents have to nearly kill themself in order to get their work done, but I like the work enough to know that I will just tolerate it during residency. And quite frankly, I am pretty sure at this point that I will choose a program with saner hours (and a better location) over one with more prestige. I want to be a doctor, not a politician, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to be a good one, no matter how many papers my attending happens to have published.

Anyway, blah blah.

Me like medicine. Yay.
