Day 26 — Your week, in great detail
i have a hard enough time remembering what happened yesterday morning, but i will do my best.
monday - caps. boring boring boring. i studied after caps. dull day.
tuesday - i had lunch with my senior partner. she's adorable! i love her. we went to get mexican food. i was nervous at first, because she told me to pick where to eat, but it turns out she loves mexican food. good :D talked to her for about an hour and then i figured i should go study some. rest of the day was just studying, i think, but i did make a butternut squash, fennel, and pear soup. i have a LOT of it, even though i froze some. i may end up freezing some more just because i don't know how much more i can eat. not to say it's not good - it's delicious! especially with some bacon crumbled and mixed in, but i am not a big soup person in general. i just made it because i happened to have all the ingredients but the pears and fennel were starting to look sad, and i wanted to use them up.
wednesday - went to my preceptor, which was ehh it was alright. we were going to work on interview skills, but it's hard for me to interview her patients because it's not really like "why are you here today." it's more of "are these meds working? are you having any of these specific side effects [based on the drugs they're taking]?" so it's all things she would essentially need to coach me on beforehand. so it was just more shadowing. that's ok though, because i'm studying renal right now so i actually had some vague idea about what she was talking about. went home and was so tired i just slept for 3 hours. went to campus, printed some stuff out, studied for a bit, went to winking lizard tavern with john, claudia, and kason. ate lots of wings, delicious. wanted to go hang out at the guard tower with kason but i had to study, so i came home. struggled through half a chapter until i just passed out.
thursday - woke up late, watched tv, ate a real meal instead of waiting for dinner, wen to talbot hall (osu addiction medicine) where i shadowed someone on the partial hospitalization unit. had an amazing time. half of it was just hanging out and talking/playing tetris on my phone because i forgot to bring a book, but still. best way to not study that i've had in a while. i'm thinking of going back tomorrow because the same guy is working and he was a lot of fun, plus i'll be prepared and take dinner so i can stay late enough to go to their AA meeting at night. excited! i've never been to one. came home, ate subway, and now i am finally settling down to study.
not really a full week but there you go. i don't remember anything earlier than monday so shrug.
