It really is like going back to high school in a way. CrazyKid: I agree with you in a lot of ways. I want to be challenged in a constant basis in whatever career I end up doing - I want each day to be exciting. But to get to that point, you might have to endure some things you are not crazy and excited about, and I'm hoping, the process right now is that part I just need to endure. I'm not doing real medicine yet or anything, so I think it's too early to see this is a bad sign or anything yet. Nadia: Thanks! The schedule is pretty intense - I think it only gets increasingly worse though, haha. Natalie: Glad you enjoyed the entry. Will do my best to keep everyone updated =) Good luck with your first week!

I retract my former comment on your tease entry, this was great to read! Especially with all the errant coffee-related thoughts. =P Sounds challenging but if anyone can do it, I know you can. =) It's just the first couple days! But yea, lots of changes... I'm nervous about starting first-year next week, so far off from where you've achieved! Best of luck, and be sure to keep us posted.. when you have the time to, of course. =) Josh!

Don't take this seriously, but the point is people need to be challenged ALL THE TIME,to grow stronger. We are forced to change sometimes, and i think its a good thing because we are being challenged all the time and that makes us stronger because we are ADAPTING... anyways, good luck ~ hey Josh,

The one thing I do hate about undergrad is that the class isn't as tight-knit as highschool! Good read. The one thing I do hate about undergrad is that the class isn't as tight-knit as highschool!
