@avgmedstudent The first time I went to eat alone was in Vegas and I met some of nicest people
The only down side is I canโt order and try as much food with just 1 tummy
Have not cried when patient died. Not when reprimanded. Not when someone was condescending and rude. But teared up after a minor auto accident right before a rough night shift.
And oh it was in front of many people ๐ way to establish my reputation as an intern
#internyear
Havenโt post a while
but like holy hell how do I get myself to study harder like my cointerns r like secretly gunnery/studious or something ๐ญ god help me .
I just wanna bum and sleep and learn on the job
Had a nightmare last night how EM physicians workforce is over-over saturated and they forbids me from entering my residency
I cannot describe the panic and pain I was in even after I woke up ๐
Thank you!!!
Ugh if one more person go telling me that my debts are nothing and Iโm gonna return it back in no time, ima smack them
And also smack those who talk about buying gold bars and sitting on gold ๐
Top financial lessons Iโm learning before residency.
1. The financial support to facilitate the transition to residency is woefully inadequate for anyone who doesnโt come from a high income background.
Itโs #WorldImmunizationWeek!
By vaccinating today, youโre bringing the world closer tomorrow. Vaccines bring us closer to a world where we can travel โ๏ธ, protected together from the threat of preventable diseases.
#VaccinesWork
Itโs thread like this that humbles and inspires me.
Despite my many complaints, I really appreciate all the opportunities and privileges that were given when my family first came to America in 2005
Thank you Dr. Roque for sharing!
A picture of my room for the first 6 months of intern year.
Now that I am looking for new apartments and #Residency is ending, I cannot avoid going back in time and reflect on how this chapter started. 1/...
And then there are my friends with their happy proud parents going off with their bright ass future and debt-free career
Dang itโs hard not to spiral sometimes
So my divorcing parents apparently arenโt civil enough to be amicable with each other for 1.5 hours just so they can come to my med school graduation.
I dont even know if Iโm supposed to be sad lol
Does this mean that my dad wonโt show up to my future wedding too then? ๐ ?
"Saarah, how are you not stressed for match?"
Listen I have my immigrant mother coming over this week. I gotta steam mop this tile, clean the oven, etc. I replaced stress with stress.
Ugh this anxiety for just knowing if I match tmrw is making me restless
And gosh I hate the fact I have to explain in Chinese how match work to non-med immigrant family as if it isnโt stressful enough ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ
