| Just finished my 12 hour ER rotation shift at St. Luke's hospital. Okay fine, 11 hours (10 hours if you subtract the hour lunch break). Saw many patients, but nothing interesting. It's sad how even though it's a bad thing, my partner and I wanted patients who have had serious trauma (we jumped when the red phone [indicative of severe trauma patients] and hoped that it's something good; 35 year old patient who had a cardiac arrest during his dialysis, came in and the doctors just stuffed him with needles and hooked him up to machines). O well, awesome experience. Lots of drunk people in the city.
Sorry Julia, when I got into John Jay dining hall, Meghan called out to me and said that I just missed you =[
My feet hurt.
Time to walk for Relay for Life.
ps- A lot of people thought I was an attending or a doctor because I had a white lab coat on and a stethoscope around my neck =) That's funny. | | |
| I'm so tired. Tired of life. Tired of everything.
Random trains of thoughts:
Why do I want to get good grades? What's the use of working hard? Won't I just end up working a 9 to 5 job for 40 years, retire, and wait for death? Or if i'm lucky, go to school for another 8 years, doing all the bitch work as an intern/residence, slave away my time as an attending, retire, and wait for death?
We all work so hard for something so uncertain... wouldn't it suck if things don't turn out the way we envision them to?
Why don't we just lie, cheat, and steal to our own content before life fucking lies, cheats, and steals from us?
Maybe if we are certain there is no after life, no possible way we will ever be concious again after death, maybe then we'll act and think differently...
It's hope that makes us go through our day. It's hope that makes us willing to work so hard. It's hope. And that might not be a good thing.

I thought I had given up hope...
That I'd lost any reason to live...
No attachments, no fear of dying...
But still, he made me waver!
Just by giving me a tiny peek of something like hope,
As easily as that...he made me feel the desire to live.
He destroyed my resolve!

This is Stephen =) Wanted to start a new xanga to keep in touch with everyone. How was your week? I did nothing really productive this week, except running errands for my mom, renewing my financial aid and having lunch with mr. afro man at Minado. We stayed there for 2 and 1/2 hrs and stuffed our faces until we wanted to puke. Waiter was a little annoyed because we were there so long, but we gave him a generous tip (actually david did because he paid for my meal =D).
Orthodontist appointment tomorrow >.< I know Anita and Barbara had their wisdom teeth removed... has anyone else have their's removed as well? Don't want them cutting up my gums for no good reason.. Did you guys get them removed because it was about to grow out or just as a safety precaution?
Hopefully i'll be able to go on AIM tonight!
