I know I've been MIA for a while. So here's what I've been up to and why I haven't been able to blog for a while! Learning to balance having fun, being a clinical med student, and studying!
So, I've officially finished Neurology and Psychiatry and am now on my SURGERY rotation! I'm currently rotating through orthopaedic surgery and I love it!!! (Though.... the hours are VERY long. I'm usually working 12 hour days). Believe it or not, I even get to suture people closed after surgeries. Did I mention I love third year?!!

| Had a BLAST at two car shows, one an ALL MUSTANG show! Can't wait til I own one :) |

| We earned our second white coat and had a ceremony to give us time to pause and be proud of the fact that we're officially clinical students and are therefore HALFWAY to being doctors! |

 |
| Throwing in some BJJ time to keep me sane |
 |
| My ever so fashionable look 50% of the time in the OR!! |

| How a 3rd year on surgery spends their Sunday nights... practicing suturing! |
