WOW 2 whole days of med school in feels like 2 years worth of activities!! but honestly I am so relieved that I keep feeling so validated that I chose the perfect school for me ¨̮ I feel like my cohort is very welcoming and exciting, that the school’s values are so in line with mine, and that the faculty actionably cares for us. I’m so excited for the next four years hehe

the medicine & anatomy students
a pristine white coat, worn with pride
intricately labeled diagrams
studying models of anatomy until you could describe them with your eyes closed
reading research published on niche topics
the mingling scents of disinfectant and anesthetics
focused eyes and steady hands as you perform a dissection
heavy textbooks piled on your shelves
detailed notes, understanding each subject inside and out
the rush of your own heartbeat in your ears
visualizing the muscles and tendons and arteries and all buried beneath your skin
the fluorescent glow of hospital lights
reciting the hippocratic oath
a stethoscope hanging around your neck
a fascination with the workings of the human body
shadows under your eyes from studying late into the night
learning the history of medicine
growing accustomed to the sight of blood
cups of black coffee, feeling the caffeine work its way through your veins
memorizing the names of bones and muscles
tracking the course of your own illnesses and injuries
antique anatomical drawings pinned to your walls alongside your own sketches
strong attention for detail, a gift for precision
the cool metal of surgical instruments
knowing the exact effect of various medications on the body
