Well, it looks like this is my last year with a “Spring Break.” I say this with quotes because with the USMLE Step 1 looming in the distance (June 15th), it’s not going to be much of a break. With only 3 months to go until my big exam, unfortunately I think I’m going to have to spend at least part of my days studying. Here are some other random things that I’d like to do:
Shadow 2 physicians (an Anesthesiologist and an Interventional Radiologist)Write at least 5 new blogs postsUpgrade RMstudents.comFinish reading A Man Without a Country and startand finish Kite Runner or The FountainheadFile my taxes and FAFSAFix a thing or two on this website and maybe add some new featuresVisit Harmony, Tim, and Lily and get a bunch of new pictures of my nieceSpend time relaxing with Sadie- Buy some new coffee from Intelligentsia
Finish season 2 of The West Wingand possibly season 3 (fantastic show if you haven’t seen it)Upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04 beta (3/26) and possibly reformat to use the new, faster Ext4 file system- Test out my plan to use Skype to reduce my phone bill
- Make a concrete study plan for Step 1
Well, that looks like a lot of stuff. I should get started! Comments and suggestions for things to add are welcome!
I think you’ve forgotten the ‘break’ in spring break, either that or you have a very active way to find relaxation.
good luck!
Good point. There will be some of that too I hope!
I also recommend listening to the This American Life economy episodes if you get some time.
Ah, I had forgotten about that. That was supposed to be on the list too. Thanks for the reminder
