I have been working almost nonstop on scheduling my 4th year courses since we were given our "scheduling worksheets" a couple of weeks ago… and I have finally gotten my (preliminary) schedule signed off by my advisor and it is ready to be entered into the magic scheduling computer. 🙂  Which I could be doing right now if I had brought my instruction sheet with me today, but alas, it sits at home and I sit here in the hospital, and that’s life.

I am excited that I’m finally ready to be done wtih the thinking about the scheduling of the classes and things such as this (that sounds a lot like Arnold Schwarzenegger if you want it to…).   Then I just have to wait until March 28th to see if I actually got into any of the courses that I wanted.

Apparently I have to stay here (geriatric inpatient psychiatry unit – affectionately "geropsych") until about 4pm today since my resident has clinic and wants someone to "cover the unit" while he’s away.  The funny thing is that although I am here (along with another medical student), if anything actually happened I wouldn’t be able to (legally) make any decisions or write orders or anything.  So it just makes me laugh. 🙂
