more of life lately!
i’m still in my dedicated study period for my board exams. i think as the exam gets nearer, my IBS gets worse but that’s life i suppose. i’m still spending my mornings working and sneaking some fun in by doing coffee study dates with friends at a favorite local spot of mine (i’m very nearly a regular!) and relaxing with some crafting, baking, and exercising in the evening! personally, i think going to the gym is very fun but maybe it’s bc i think of all the machines as a sort of playground. whatever works i guess! in terms of reading, im reading the white album by joan didion on my own and the man who died twice (sequel to the thursday murder club) by richard osman with my boyfriend and enjoying both of them so far. if anyone has any books they’d like to recommend, please let me know! my fave genres are lighthearted classics, gothic literature, and whatever genre my year of rest and relaxation is (if you enjoyed rest and relaxation, then i’d highly recommend berlin by bea setton - i was previously recommended bunny by mona awad in the same vein and it did not impress me)

Good morning! I had the results of my radiology exam and despite all the efforts I did not pass. So, as you can see, sometimes things do not go the way we plan or think. Thankfully I can retake the exam in June.
I managed to pick myself up and dust all the negative feelings. But, I have to admit it was hard.
I am trying to understand how to study better and be more efficient. However it is not easy.
Apart from that, I am enjoying the process of understanding and letting go of passive study methods I have used in the past.
How about you? Sending you much love and courage 🫰🏽🫂📖🧠

honestly you probably shouldn't go into the medical profession if you aren't prepared to treat patients with dignity and respect - even if your job exploits you, even if your bosses suck, even if you're exhausted.
yes, you are allowed to have feelings and be tired. but you have to be willing and able to either admit when you can't do something (and take the consequences), or put how you feel aside and do your job. for the sake of your patient.
you and your job may be harmed by the medical industrial complex's wrongness, but to your patients, you are part of the complex that is also gravely failing them. you have the power to be a force of goodwill and care, or an instrument of oppression.
that is what you're signing up for when you become a medical professional. don't like it? don't become a medical professional.

block 2 exam in a week! It’s so true that the methods I used to use to study in undergrad are just not cutting it…I’ve started ditching the note taking (I’ve found that taking notes = focusing on Note Taking which takes attention away from understanding lecture) and I use flash cards (Anki) more than I ever thought I would in my life. I used to be a huge proponent for writing out notes and making long, handwritten study guides, but I’ve just found that to be too time consuming and not effective enough for med school :( it was definitely really uncomfy changing up how I thought I studied best, but hey, if it saves me time and gets me the grade…I’ll take it 🥹

Rebecca Lee Crumpler, born Rebecca Davis, (February 8, 1831 – March 9, 1895), was an American physician, nurse and author. After studying at the New England Female Medical College, in 1864 she became the first African American woman to become a doctor of medicine in the United States. Crumpler was also one of the first female physician authors in the nineteenth century. In 1883, she published A Book of Medical Discourses. The book has two parts that cover the prevention and cure of infantile bowel complaints, and the life and growth of human beings. Dedicated to nurses and mothers, it focuses on maternal and pediatric medical care and was among the first publications written by an African American on the subject of medicine.

"Bria Peacock chose a career in medicine because the Black Georgia native saw the dire health needs in her community — including access to abortion care.
Her commitment to becoming a maternal health care provider was sparked early on when she witnessed the discrimination and judgment leveled against her older sister, who became a mother as a teen. When the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, Peacock was already in her residency program in California, and her thoughts turned back to women like her sister.
“I knew that the people — my people, my community back home — was going to be affected in a dramatic way, because they’re in the South and because they’re Black,” she said.
But even though Peacock attended the Medical College of Georgia, she’s doing her obstetrics and gynecology residency at the University of California-San Francisco, where she has gotten comprehensive training in abortion care.
“I knew as a trainee that’s what I needed,” said Peacock, who plans to return to her home state after her residency.
Ever since the Supreme Court decision, California has worked to become a sanctuary for people from states where abortion is restricted. In doing so, it joins 14 other states, including Colorado, New Mexico, and Massachusetts. Now, it’s addressing the fraught issue of abortion training for medical residents, which most doctors believe is crucial to comprehensive OB-GYN training.
A law enacted in September [2023] makes it easier for out-of-state trainees to get up to 90 days of in-person training under the supervision of a California-licensed doctor. The law eliminated the requirement for a training license and also permitted training at programs such as Planned Parenthood that are affiliated with accredited medical schools.
“By allowing physician residents to come to California, where there are more opportunities for abortion training, and by allowing them to be reimbursed for this work, we’re sending a message that abortion care is health care and an essential part of physician training,” said Lisa Folberg, CEO of the California Academy of Family Physicians, which supported the bill.
The question of how to provide complete OB-GYN training promises to become more urgent as the effects of abortion bans on medical education becomes clear: 18 states restrict or ban abortion to the point of effectively stripping 20% of OB-GYN medical residents of the opportunity to get abortion training, according to the Ryan Residency Training Program in Abortion and Family Planning. That’s 1,354 residents this year out of 5,962 OB-GYN residents nationwide.
The restrictions in some cases aim to reach beyond state borders, spooking medical students and residents who fear hostility from anti-abortion groups and right-wing legislators...
Pamela Merritt, executive director of Medical Students for Choice, pointed to a Kansas law that requires repayment of state medical school scholarships — with 15% interest — if residents perform abortions or work in clinics that perform them, except in cases of rape, incest, or a medical emergency.
Doctors point out that abortion training is not just about ending pregnancies. Peacock recalled a patient who started hemorrhaging badly shortly after a healthy delivery. Peacock and her team at UCSF performed a dilation and curettage — a procedure commonly used to terminate pregnancy.
“If we did not have that skill set, and the patient continued to bleed, it could have been life-taking,” said Peacock, chief OB-GYN resident at UCSF...
Peacock, for her part, is adamant about returning to Georgia, where abortions are banned after six weeks. “I’m still going to provide abortions, whether that’s in Georgia or I need to fly to a different state and work in abortion clinics for a week out of the month,” she said. “It would definitely be a big part of my work.”"

life lately is gloomy days and early mornings. studying for boards is a bit more stressful than i’d imagined, not because of all the material i need to review, but more because im struggling to build up the stamina for an 8 hour exam (it’s been years since i last took one and im significantly more exhausted at this point in my life than i was then). but nothing i can do but continue working! still making time for art and friends to keep myself in a good mental space and continuing to try my best :-)

if there’s something positive about attending face to face lectures from 7am to 6pm, it’s seeing the architecture of the campus as the sun slowly starts to set- unless you’re rushing home for dinner and another couple of hours of studying.
honestly? thank goodness for the barbie (2023) soundtrack for keeping me sane tonight.

27.08.2023 | I've spent most of this morning creating more reels for my Instagram. As much as I love doing it, I forgot how time consuming editing videos can be! Now, it's time for me to finish off one of my upcoming Notion templates (it's a travel planner, like the ULTIMATE travel planner) and do some revision ahead of my upcoming clinical placement starting this Tuesday. Hope you're all having a great day.
