Why the fireworks?Well, today, I am HOME. For GOOD!!!!
As I walked out of the University hospital today, it sunk in. I am not only done with my current rotation, I am done with all of my rotations. As in DONE with MEDICAL SCHOOL!!!! All I have to do to graduate now is wait the three weeks until the ceremony and walk up and claim my diploma! I no longer have to walk up to patients and give them the disclaimer, "hi, I'm Sarah The Medical Student, and if need anything, I'll find someone who can get it for you." Suddenly, my signature will go from being worthless (not even pretty to look at) to worthy of signing hospital orders and prescriptions! Oh joy. That also means that I can no longer rip the phone jack out of the call room wall at 3am when there's another new admission. Soon, I will be Dr. Sarah. I can't decide which is better....the feeling that I am done with school or the feeling that I don't have to leave my little girl and husband for a week at a time anymore, kissing up to sub sub sub specialists at the U. Oh wow. And I get to sleep in MY bed tonight.
This is the best Friday the 13th I've ever had.

Yay! Congrats! So hey, you might have to make a trip out here a little sooner than planned (good thing you're done :0) I'm already at a 2 and the baby has dropped - good grief, these kids just don't stay in me. We're so happy for you and look forward to more pictures of Julia now that there's no more single parents!
Good Grief! Take it easy, girl! That baby needs to stay in the inn a bit longer. What is your doc's plan?
