Let's Dance in Ponderings of the Universe

Today has been quite the emotional roller coaster.

I woke up this morning upset, unsure why, maybe weird dreams. Remembered that it was Monday and I have the week off, so that cheered me up quite a bit. Then, a little later I get on facebook and learned about David Bowie’s death. That broke my heart a little. It’s hard to lose such a legend, you feel the loss of all that they could have contributed to the world if they had been given a little more time. He sure did live an astounding, full life, though.

Then a facebook notification from my class page popped up. A student saying our NAVLE test results were up. Shit, weren’t we supposed to get email notification 24 hours prior to getting our test results and then another email when they went live?! Checked my email - no email from them. Classmate had put a link to the retrieval website on our page. Clicked it. Needed my NAVLE ID number. Retrieved that from previous emails. Enter it and my DOB in, hands shaking, heart pounding. To prolong the torture, the website doesn’t just show results, it makes you download a PDF of it. Download that sucker to my Desktop. Open it.

I passed! I passed?! Wait…is that right? THIS MUST BE A MISTAKE! Double checked that my name was on the PDF, the score breakdown made sense. I PASSED!!!! Cue relieved weeping.

I am so relieved.

Also, as long as nothing weird happens between now and May 7th, I’m gonna be a doctor in just a few short months. Ha! So weird.

I’ve been a terrible PBer lately. I’ve been sort of reading but not really commenting :( Surgery rotation really wore me down, plus Mogget decided get a urethral obstruction during Surgery rotation and we’re still dealing with getting him back to normal (which I’ll try to write about soon), my one-week Public Health rotation was oddly exhausting too, and I’m really peopled out. Hopefully this week off will go towards making me feel like a semi-functional human being (that along with not worrying about my NAVLE results anymore!!!!!) and I can get back to commenting and interacting with you guys and such because I miss it.
