While watching Man vs. Wild last night I was keenly reminded of my experience in med school this semester. Bear was attempting to climb down a waterfall and holding on to a vine for dear life while thousands of pounds of water were crashing against him threatening to send him plummeting to the rocks below. Somehow, my experience of sitting in a lecture hall while my unrelenting professors threw countless amounts of material at me seemed very familiar to Bear's situation. Fortunately, just as Bear eventually reached the bottom of the fall unscathed, I have now made it through one of the most stressful weeks of my life and am done with my first semester of med school. And despite what Brian may tell you, it actually is as hard as people make it out to be. The unfortunate part about it is they like to cram all the things that make it really hard into about 2 days and it was pretty much all I could do to keep my sanity...I think I lost it for a few hours.
In other news, I finally got a ring for Kimberly. We didn't have one until just recently because we were waiting on some details to work out with a ring that she had in her family, but that kinda fell through so we went and got one! Thought I would let you all see it.
