Here we go again...

Christmas break is over, back to the grind. We had a great Christmas in Utah and enjoyed the time we had to spend with family. The two weeks went way too fast. That's right, we only had two weeks off for the break, while many other grad programs don't start up for another week. The second year PA students also get one more week off. The good thing about that is that we will get three weeks off next year.

I am very happy with the results of last semester. I know for sure, now, that I can do it. My grades were great and I had a lot of fun. School is so much better when you are studying stuff that interests you.

This next semester covers units in Pulmonology, EENT, Nephrology, Rheumatology, Endocrinology, Neurology, Gastroenterology, Dermatology, and Geriatrics. I believe we also have some surgery stuff included along the way. We also start seeing patients in the hospitals to do history and physicals.

I look forward to the upcoming semester and all the exciting information that will come with it. Not to mention that the sooner it is over, the sooner the clinical year will be here.

Now, I have received a special request from one of my "followers" to continue a special feature from my previous blog. The feature is called "This or That". It is pretty self explanatory, just vote for one of the two options.

This or That-

Would you rather freeze to death or burn to death?

Please leave a comment.

I think it would take longer to freeze to death so I'll choose burning. What kind of a question is that? I would rather be cold than hot though. You can always add more layers if you're cold.

I agree what kind of a question is that? With the medical knowlege that I have(which is about 0) I think when you freeze to death you just go to sleep. Burning would hurt! So I will go for the freezing. But I have learned living the past almost 6 years in the mid-west(with tons of humidity) I would much rather be HOT than cold. I think I am getting old. Being cold hurt's!

I would rather be hot than cold. Lets see....dying in Hawaii from overexposure? Or dying on a snowy mountain in Alaska? I choose Hawaii.
