Last week of the first semester. Positive thoughts

As I drove out to my last indoor soccer game of the semester last night along with fellow medical students, we talked a lot about the difficult and frustrating parts of medical school. It led me to think about how much easier it is to complain and vent about the frustrating parts of school rather than recognize all of the amazing things we are learning.

Today was our last day in the anatomy lab, though I'll go back for one more review visit before the final exam on Friday.

The physiology part of our final covers renal function and gastrointestinal secretion+absorption. The physiology is extremely interesting though I often don't have time to delve into the small details. Without the mechanistic details down to the smallest level, I often feel that the ratio of memorization/understanding gets too large. Looking forward to getting to NM for a little sunshine next week.

Time to pay attention to this radiology lecture again. Most of it is going over my head, but it is a good anatomy review.
