A time for change...

Well...there is so much going on right now I don't even know where to begin...

This past weekend Chris and I went on a mini-vacation to Kansas City. We spent the weekend relaxing, eating good food, and taking in the city. We were also able to have dinner with our friend Ryan and his girlfriend. It was good to see him and spend a little time reminiscing about the fun memories we made together at Forest (as he is a soon-to-be alumni too).

This week I have really begun discussing my departure with my clients. Some of them are taking the news really well, while others are not doing so good...I guess this mixture of reactions is to be expected. It is bittersweet really. I have had the opportunity to work with some pretty amazing and challenging people this year and will be sad to see them go. But, I am also excited to see what the next year has in store.

This weekend I will also begin boxing up my apartment as I am moving my stuff in two weeks. It will be nice to have the next two weekends to get things situated and sorted through...but difficult as well, as I have to keep some stuff (clothes and toiletries) here because I will still have three weeks of living here before I am done with internship (I will be moving my furniture to my new apartment before I am actually done here).

All in all, I am REALLY busy. It is nice to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but frightening to belive I will soon be out on my own as a doctor. I am sure there is nothing but good ahead and am going to try to remain optimistic through the next six stressful weeks :)
