Aghh, my hospital's wait time is the longest :( |
This morning I drove to the hospital at 6:45 am for a mandatory infection control orientation, only to find that it was frustratingly cancelled. The drive home took three times as long, heading back into the city with the morning commuters. Because I only got a restless four hours of sleep last night and it was still relatively early when I arrived home, I went back to sleep for a couple of hours :)
When I woke up I got down to work. I'm looking forward to having lots of mornings free to get in some productive USMLE Step 1 studying. I find that mornings are when I'm able to concentrate best and I'm going to focus on getting through as many QBank questions as possible before I leave for work in the late afternoons.
If the morning sun isn't motivation to get up and sit at my window-side desk, I don't know what is.
Hopefully I'll be organized and productive in the weeks to come, and be motivated to get in a few more elliptical sessions than I did during my internal medicine block (i.e. if I do more than one -- in the entire 4 weeks -- I'm good!).
Well it's back to the USMLE QBank for a few hours before I have to get going to work...hopefully not having to fight after-work traffic. Fortunately the seasonal street parking ban (for snow clearing) was lifted yesterday, so with any luck I'll even be able to get by without a parking pass this block. I'll write more about how my shifts are going in the emergency department later this week!
