the slotted spoon...

so, it is seriously crunch time. almost two years after I started medical school, this is truly the first time I have felt anxiety or uncertainty. with finals almost over, the grim reality is that the board exams are quite literally around the quarter. despite my best preparations, I can't help but succumb to this overwhelming feeling that something horrible will go wrong. I guess it might stem from that weird paranoia that I think everyone experiences - you know, the one where things have been going so well that something catastrophic is bound to happen soon. all I can do now is hope that I can focus in the next nine days and something good will come of it.
