Fourth Year of Medical School
Everyone said that the fourth year of med school was the best. I agree! I am currently enjoying 4 weeks of vacation. I have taken some interesting electives like palliative medicine and preventive medicine. I have finally caught up on sleep. I actually have time to take Dietrich to school in the morning and pick him up before the school closes. And I have started reading non medical related books. I know this world will not last forever but I am really enjoying it!
I'm not sure how to best describe myself but here are somethings about me. I am currently living my childhood dream of becoming a doctor. I am a medical student (I started in summer 2005) in Southern CA and have lived in CA my whole life, except the year I spent in Kansas City right after I got married. I am married to a pastor and I am a member of the Church of the Nazarene. I hope to one day be a missionary in Asia and therefore I am thinking about family medicine as a specialty. I am the proud mother of a beautiful boy who was born in October 2006. He is the reason I get up in the morning and can't imagine life without him. I guess that's about it. God Bless!!
