I just got a really cool package in the mail… it said it was from the Seattle Children’s residency program and it was a total surprise (since I already received my package of papers and information). As I opened it, the smell of fresh coffee wafted out and I saw a variety of items in the box…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
As you can see… many different goodies with an accompanying poem which I will reproduce here:<\/p>\n

By Dr. Seuss (and the Seattle Children’s Interns)<\/strong><\/p>\n
Today is your day.
You’ve matched at "U Dub".
You’re off and away!<\/font><\/p>\n
Bike and skis on the rack,
You’re off to Seattle,
Will you ever go back?<\/font><\/p>\n
But stuffed in your locker.
The dress code is fleece,
And maybe some Dockers.<\/font><\/p>\n
Computer orders on "COWs".
You’ll be ready for call.
How many patients? Oh wow!<\/font><\/p>\n
You’ll ask with a smirk.
It’s helpful for play,
As well as for work.<\/font><\/p>\n
Help feed your mind.
And don’t forget support group!
Take your time and unwind…<\/font><\/p>\n
Ready to work and play!
Need advice? Need a break?
We’ll take care of you every day!<\/font><\/p>\n
You’ll walk the great halls.
Tully’s coffee is liquid gold,
Enjoy your "double talls".<\/font><\/p>\n
And water all around.
San Juans, Victoria, and Whistler:
Even vacation spots abound!<\/font><\/p>\n
And will you succeed?
Yes! Yes! You will,
98 3\/4% guarenteed!<\/font><\/p>\n
We can’t wait to get to know you!<\/u><\/font><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
