This and that...

09/29/07

Hey all,

I took my friend Matt to the airport at 4 in the morning. When I came back I did some work, but eventually fell asleep again. In my sleep I had a dream with mom, and she was strong and healthy and we were talking, and I could smell her!!!!!!! She smelled like she always did, that great Loreal cream she loved so much. Anyways, Omer, Abba, E-ma and myself were there and we were talking, and I said to mom—I just can’t believe you are here! And she said (and that’s the part I absolutely LOVE): Believe it!

Ha!

Well, I was so happy in the dream, and I was so happy when I woke up… and I told dad about it and shed a few tears because it was so darn real to me… that I just have to believe she was there. Besides, she told me to believe it, so… what, am I going to start a new trend and not listen to my mother? I don’t think so.

Anyways, I had a lot of stuff I’m working on. One was completing the ER examination. School was gracious enough to delay it until I was done with boards. That’s done (after 4 hours), but I don’t know if I passed or not because they don’t post the scores… that makes no sense. I hope I did, because this was kind of a pain in the… Well, I still got Cardiology to get through, and then I don’t owe the school any more leftover work from last month.

I’m also working on my personal statement—it had morphed a lot since I last wrote about it… I don’t like it yet, but it is better. I am still waiting for school to scan in my documents (letters of recommendation, test scores, academic records) and then I’ll send it all on its way. I cannot wait to be done with it. :o) I think I’ll have it all completely done by next weekend.

Next weekend is going to be exciting. My friend Lori called me up about a month ago and told me that she must come and see me and hang out because she missed me so much. Well, I miss her a lot too—she is like the little sister I never had! She is so full of energy and cracks me up. Anyways, she is coming on Thursday, I have to work on Friday, but hopefully my cats would be nice to her… we didn’t figure out what we will actually do, but I am leaning towards driving into Pennsylvania and visiting Lancaster… we can feast our eyes on the bright oranges/reds/yellows on the way, enjoy good food (and naturally our own good company) and just have a fun day. We’ll see if she’s up for it.

Pediatric cardiology is a lot more fun than cardiology! Yeah! I like kids, and it is so much (more) fun to see them as my patients. My stethoscope needs replacing. I can hear with it, but when I use the doctor’s stethoscope I hear SO much better. So… I will get that soon (…whenever financial aid decides to give me the second part of the disbursement).

Last thing—my friend Banana convinced me to join facebook. It’s a silly online friends community. Well, it is really fun, but the best part about it is playing games! My friend Matt (a different Matt than the one I drove to the airport) is the best scrabble player I met in a long time. I am putting up a good fight and just having a grand old time playing. I really am not spending a lot of time on there—whenever I log on the computer I go there and place the tiles, and a few hours later would come back and do it again. As a result the games last for days, but it is just pure fun. I played against Karen as well, but she cancelled the games—I was very disappointed! :o( Banana has not done a move yet, Mary is being a good sport…

Well… wow, I talk about this and that, don’t I. That’s okay people. Well, I am going to take my laundry down—it’s been hanging outside (in the amazing warm autumn sun) for quite a while now.

Have a good weekend!
