Done?

This has been one anti-climatic week! I have officially finished my last final ever and I am sure that I am moving on to my third year of medical school. I love being able to write OMSIII after stuff. I guess after a week of finals...three tests of which were over brand new material....and a tornado that ripped through town and destroyed the houses of my friends...I guess the end doesn't really feel like the end.

I find myself exhausted in every imaginable capacity. I'm physically exhausted from the clean up work from the last couple of days in the wake of our tornado. I'm mentally exhausted from cramming so much information into my brain this week. I'm emotionally exhausted from all of the above. Tonight was a night off, a much deserved and much needed night off.

So now it's onto the next thing. We have a week of class still to get through next week and we're finishing up with our ACLS training. After my last performance, I'm going to have to be much more careful this time around with the shock paddles...luckily these are fake shocks on patient simulators. After that, it's time to study tons and tons for boards on June 15, get moved to Joplin, enjoy a few days with the family in the Ozarks and then start my IM rotation on July 1. This is going to be a wild month, but I'm sure after this week that I am definitely up for the challenge.
