Fairly Boring

Well, this past week has been fairly boring to say the least. I feel like I moved all of the way out here to be busy and learn so much and now I am just sitting around waiting for school to start. Boring. Plus it gives me way too much time to miss my family.

Don't get me wrong, I've done some things like pick up my computer for school, get my last immunization from Student Health, checked out the campus, bought an amazing hoodie that says "School's Name: Medicine" on it, met one of my roommates, done some pre-readings, etc. I guess maybe it is because I am living all alone right now and I am so used to being in contact with people that I feel bored. I am sure that this is simply the calm before the storm. I betcha that I should be cherishing my free time, but I didn't come here for free time.

One good thing is that I have been involved in the pre-orientation events. I went Rock'n'Bowling on Tuesday and there is a gaming night this evening at a local coffee shop. It is great to meet my future classmates!

Well, today I begin to blog my experiences as I begin my medical education. Throughout this blog I intend on remaining anonymous as I document my life from this time forward. My intentions are to write in this blog every so often to keep family and friends updated. As well, this is the place where I will release my thoughts and write about the good, the bad, and the ugly that I, as a medical student, will encounter during my four years of medical school. I certainly hope that I am able to make time to write in this blog so that I can keep a written record of my experiences while (hopefully) providing some interesting reading material for others in the process.

Cheers!
