Counting Down in Ponderings of the Universe

One more day of my current block and then only 7 more to go! 14 MORE WEEKS OF VET SCHOOL! EEEEE!!!!!!!!

I’m currently doing an externship at a local clinic that sees A LOT of exotics and pocket pets. It’s fun, but a lot less hands-on than my other externships have been. In some ways it’s nice, because I’m mostly observing and asking questions, but I also feel like maybe I’m not learning as much as I could be. Everyone there is really nice but, for some reason, I’m especially awkward and quiet there. In part, it’s probably the environment and people, but I also feel like I’m going through an awkward/anxious/feeling dumb period. Wheee.

I feel like I should be starting the job searching process but that’s kind of terrifying. Also, I really need some time off after I graduate before jumping into a job and I’m afraid if I start applying now and get hired somewhere, they’d want me to start shortly after graduation as summer is often a busier time of year at vet clinics. But then I’m afraid if I wait too long, a great job might pass me by. Then again, most people don’t stay at their first job out of school for that long so maybe it doesn’t matter that much…The prospect of an actual adult job thing is very anxiety-inducing.

I really wish I could play with a bunch of kittens and have a nap.
