I really enjoyed my surgery rotation, despite the 12-15 hour days and 4:20 alarm clock. I got to see the sunrise every morning, met some great people, and learned a lot! I’m pretty pumped to have a little free time on my hands. We spent the last week back at school for lectures and testing, and learned a thing or two about the boards and job hunting. Here are a few highlights of the exciting things I’ve been up to in the last week!
Wake vs. NC State basketball game. Although
I’m not a huge sports buff, I do really enjoy ACC basketball. Whitney, Geoff, and I watched Wake beat out State 85-78 in an exciting ball game! Go Deacs!
Dinner parties! Geoff is perhaps one of the most amazing cooks! The menu of the night was ricotta stuffed chicken, potato cakes, and seasoned shrimp. Whitney baked brownies which she served with girl scout ice cream for dessert. What a treat!! I also enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Carrie and Greg's. We had a delicious baked spaghetti! After dinner we played Balderdash and enjoyed watching the snow fall.
Bridal showers!! Sarah, Shannon, Denisha, and Greta are all getting married this year!! What a perfect excuse for a party. We sent them on a silly scavenger hunt where they had to complete silly tasks, reveal what they love most about their fiances, dress up in homemade bridal apparal, write wedding vows using a clever word bank, and play "chubby bunny" with their fiances' names. It was fun to plan and the girls definitely had a great time!
Birthdays!!! We celebrated Stephanie Wallace's birthday at the Village Tavern and enjoyed hearing all about her adventures in Tampa, where she's moving this summer. Wednesday I went to Mooresville to celebrate Hannah's 8th birthday. We went out for sushi, Hannah's favorite! How sophisticated ;)! Sarah George's birthday was Friday and we enjoyed an awesome Mexican lunch!! Last night we went out to Bleu for Whitney's birthday. Steph and I had an amazing baked brie appetizer before feasting on delicious cramb and shrimp cakes! It's been so much fun celebrating everyone's big day!
Out on the town!! Last weekend I celebrated with Mallory, Margarita, and a few other first years. After a round of turkey burgers and sweet potato fries, we headed downtown to toast to the end of their neuro/ortho unit and my successful surgery rotation. Last night Meg had us over for wine and cheese before heading to Noma, my new favorite addition to Winston's night life. It was so great to be reunited with everyone and kick back and enjoy lots of laughs and good times!

Tomorrow I'm moving to Mooresville for the next four weeks to work in otolaryngology. I'll be living with Kristin's family and next door to Kristin, Justin, and her grandparents. I am sure that the month will be filled with lots of card playing, Sonic slushies, running and yoga, and great fellowship at the Cove. I can't believe I only have two more rotations to go!!
