seriously contemplating whether or not i should take an additional year off after the year i’m already planning to take off…still feeling like i’m not prepared mentally for med school. this “one year” i’m taking off isn’t even a year off since i’ll have to apply for med school right when i graduate. sigh, so many things to think of on top of this extremely busy week coming up. i’m scared to bring this up to my parentals though, since it was already hard enough to convince them that i wasn’t prepared to go straight to med school. why do i feel this way so late into my senior year? i wish i figured out a more definite path earlier on in college :( boo sauce!
anywho, finished my second day of CCE orientation earlier today! and i have my department specific orientation tomorrow afternoon. i’m excited to see exactly what i’ll be doing in the telemetry floor! i wish i ended up in med/surg/neuro since i’m really interested in the brain but the heart is pretty coooooool too. gotta make the most of what i have!

Ditto.
They were quite disappointed when I told them about the first year off. Now another?
So I’ve decided to go through with it. If I fail I’ll just try harder next quarter. It’s just hard feeling like no one else knows what we’re going though.
