I've decided that being a medical student is going to wind up with me dying in a car crash. I seem to have too much school in my head to ever be capable of focusing on driving). My first story- I was with Gloria driving to her program director's house for a potluck dinner. This one actually has nothing to do w/ my inability to focus on driving thanks to med school- we were driving west at like 6:30 so the sun was right in my eyes and I had my little visor thing down so it was blocking my vision too. Anyway, I went right through a redlight. Didn't know it was even there until Gloria told me that I went through it. Luckily there were no cars or cops so whatever, but it was bad. My other one really is cause of med school though. I had a test today, it was my third in a week so my brain was pretty fried. Anyway i went up to a light to turn left. The light turned green so i went. About halfway through turning i realized all the lights turned green and not just the arrow so it was not actually my turn to go. Luckily there was a girl on the otherside of light that figured out that i wasnt actually trying to cut her off and just made a mistake and she let me go, but it couldve turned out rather badly. So anyway, i feel like i should not be allowed to drive while in medical school.
speaking of medical school, i had my first anatomy test on friday. There was one question that was an x-ray of a hand/wrist. One of the questions was pointing to the radius and asked what ligament attached there. I hadn't bothered studying ligaments so I was completely lost so i'm looking at it and looking at it and finally i decide to just bs an answer. So i think to myself, ok its on the lateral side and its in the wrist, I'll call it the lateral carpal ligament. So I'm thinking the graders are gonna be laughing at my answer. Turns out it was the right answer. I was really excited. I was even more excited when I realized the test was out of 210 points and not 220 meaning i got an 80 instead of the 76 I thought I got. Clearly i'm a genius.
Aside from school my life is pretty boring so not much else to talk about. hope everyone is doing well!
