Monday Bank holiday day off! I needed this, I just used it mainly for admin, washing, and cooking. Yes, being at Med School is all fun and games until you have to spend all day in your flat washing your undies. In the evening, we had our first Revue meeting. If you've been a long… Continue reading MSK Block Week 2

And we are back! First day back after our two-week break and the first day of my final year. It does sort of feel like I cheated Med school considering I spent all of 6 months in the third year and will complete the clinical part of my fourth year in 5 months.

Monday My current mind set, getting to the end of this week. 5 more days to go Abbie. Just five more days and you'll have two weeks off. I need it badly. We had online teaching today, which was good as I got to have a bit of a lie in and sleep. We didn't… Continue reading Acute Block – Week Five

It looks at how effectively your lungs and kidneys are doing at removing waste… Continue reading Acute Block- Week Two

Monday Here we are! Another block. These are FLYING by. Soon though we will be on our 2-week break and as much as I am enjoying third year, I can not wait. We started the day with online inductions and teaching. The perk with these being you can roll out of bed 20 minutes before… Continue reading Acute Block – Week One
