Hey! It was really exciting to finally start, before this week I didn't really feel like I was actually in med school, it didn't feel real, but now I am actually realising that, holy shit, I'm gonna be a doctor!! But yeah, it was definitely overwhelming. The amount of info-dumping on Monday and Tuesday was exhausting. I went home on Tuesday and slept for 14 hours straight, I was so tired. Probably mostly do to with the shock to the system I received waking up at 6AM to get to uni after several months of sleeping till 12 than with what we actually did, but still.
The labs on Friday were really cool, though! And I enjoyed the first MS lecture, even if it was probably a lot less information than we will be getting per lecture starting next week. I'm trying not to freak out about the amount of information we'll need to learn, I'm just going to take it one day at a time. Hopefully that will stop me procrastinating so much, I tend to procrastinate more when the task I'm facing seems insurmountably huge.
