1. Spring might finally be coming to Stockholm, after a long, long, LONG winter.
2. The Pediatric Neurology ward is a tough place. The kids are so sick, but they're so brave. And the parents are unbelievably strong.
3. I went for a run yesterday, which was the first not-cold day since like October. It wasn't a long run, due to my current physical restrictions, but it was amazing.
4. My permanent retainer is broken. I've tried to get it fixed twice but both times the glue has broken. So I went to a new orthodontist, hoping she would tell me I could get a removable one instead. But she thinks I should keep the permanent wire. Navigating this system in Swedish has been such a challenge! My orthodontics vocabulary is limited, to say the least.
5. I went to a Michelin-star restaurant for the first time two weeks ago. The food was delicious, and it was so much fun. The restaurant actually had 2 stars. (I'm hoping to write a separate post about this soon).
6. This website: http://whatshouldwecallmedschool.tumblr.com/ is the best website ever.
7. In less than 2 months, I will be working as a physician. On a ward. With real patients. Just a summer job, but still. Exciting, and terrifying.
8. After my day today, I decided I need to choose a specialty in which you don't have to do rounds. Unfortunately, this strategy is not very feasible since it would eliminate like 99% of specialties.
9. I can't believe people think it's ok to throw themselves a baby shower. Yes, a friend of mine sent an email saying she was going to do this (but it turns out another friend was already going to throw her one, so it was, as Joey says, a moo point.)
10. Friends is the best TV show ever.
