Orientation-Check....Classes-to begin

I have officially been orientated into medical school. Meaning, I have had lecture after lecture on professionalism, responsibility, honour code, study skills, etc. What I found amusing was that when each person got in front of the class to speak, each and every person said congratulations and welcome to medical school. I bet that each day of orientation I was congratulated 5 times by different speakers. Haha, go figure. But it is kind of a big deal, I mean, we are the healthcare providers of the future.

One instance that I will always distinctly remember from orientation, is when I gave myself goosebumps just thinking that I am actually here in medical school, sitting amongst my fellow students. I have worked my butt off to get into medical school and it is about to start. Sweet!

I am sure that my excitement and naivety is amusing to some, but I am pretty pumped to be here. I am aware that fear and stress will quickly come to head once things start rolling. I got my biochemistry handout that includes 40% of the information we are responsible for, and this package is only 290 pages. eeeek! That's a heck of a lot of information!!!! But, if there's a will, then there's a way, right???

Another update is soon to come.

Cheers!!!
