Celebrating

EENT and Dermatology are done--we are well into endocrinology now!

Monday and Tuesday were testing days and Wednesday we had classes but we were all zoned out. When I got home Wednesday I had a surprise awaiting me from my "neighbors" (who happen to also be my brother and sister in law).

My VERY FIRST Cupcake cupcakes!! 

Y'all! Go get some!! I had a "Black and White" and a "Peaches and Cream." They were both awesome but that Peaches and Cream cupcake had real peaches in the cupcake part--yuuummmm. The cupcake itself had a large, delicious crumb and I would take pinches of cupcake with a pinch of icing and it was just the perfect ratio.

That night after a long nap and a little studying I realized that it was 10:45 and I hadn't eaten, nor did I have groceries so this was my dinner:

It may have been the best dinner I have every had--just a salty and sweet Heaven! And I may have had the Peaches and Cream one for lunch today. . . 

Obviously nutrition is super-high on my priority list these days. . . 

As I was enjoying my Cupcake I couldn't help but think of sweet Elliana Talbott who is in Heaven now, but her family celebrates her every year on her birthday with Cupcakes. I haven't met her family in person but they had a baby girl with awesome taste in cupcakes and I don't think there could be a better way to celebrate her life and rejoice that she is healed and dancing with Jesus! 

Block 1

Block test 1 is on Monday and Tuesday. Dermatology and EENT will be behind me--crazy. And scary. The next time I will study this stuff is right before I see patients in clinical rotations--that thought will drive you to study for sure!! Can't wait to see patients and help them through these diseases! My body is sleep deprived and under-nourished and my brain hurts but this is fun to study and such a privilege to do. That doesn't negate the fact that my first paycheck will go to Botox to fix the squint from looking at my computer screen and a massage therapist to fix my back from leaning over my computer all day long!!

Top Tigers

Clemson won! That's my tigers!! I've studied 18 hours already this weekend but I took a study break to watch the game and I was not disappointed! I'm going up to God's country next weekend for the first game of the season in Death Valley and I couldn't be more excited! I will admit--I was dying to be one of the college students in that stadium tonight. But it will be fun to go back for my first game as an alum!

I also love it when you've just watched a good game with a few intense moments and some good hits and then you see the guys from opposite teams hugging each other in the midst of the media frenzy post game. So classy--way to go Tigers.
