learning ahh

Things I have learned in my first three days of medical school:

1. Mast cells, macrophages, and plasma cells all look the same to me under a microscope.

2. In four years, I will have a narcotics license, so apparently this means I have to grow up now.

3. Clown doctors actually do exist. And I can take a class about them.

5. Doctors with beards are actually supposed to wear huge helmets over their heads when an N95 protection mask (in the case of certain infectious diseases) is called for.

6. I am in love with my Macbook Pro. Every time I open my computer I enter this joyful world of bliss where everything makes sense. 

7. Medical students are way more interesting than you'd expect. Maybe too interesting... In general though, I have met some pretty awesome people that I am excited to spend time with over the next four years.

The list could probably go on and on (and begin to include some very boring information) so I'll leave it at that.
