I started this to save time...

The original purpose of this blog (when I signed up for it and abandoned it 8 months ago) was to save time. That seems to be the focus of nearly all of my activities nowadays. It's all about school. Exam here, exam there. I don't have time to let everyone in my life know what is going on, so why not broadcast it?

I think now, I'll also use it to share my experiences in medicine, school, the world in general. Maybe my thoughts and ideas will be useful to someone. We'll see.

So here's the deal. In addition to a wonderful husband, 3 dogs, a great apartment, an great job and my life ahead of me, I've signed a cosmic agreement with God that if I work my butt off for the rest of my life and sacrifice myself, he'll let me do what I love - medicine. Not a bad deal, right? Are there easier career choices with better hours and more money? Sure. Could I be successful with something other than medicine? I think so. Would I love my job? No way. I'm hooked on health care. It's a calling.

So there is the idea. Now let's see if it works.
