"Outfit; The radio collides to the sounds of our heartbeats"

Every day my job/summer practice starts at 8:30 when the hospital hallways are almost empty so my outfits usually are quite ignored because immediately the heels are off and the dress is packed and I jump into my scrubs. Serious doctor coming in and all that.

But it is just my luck that on the day I wear my 5 inch heels with my hooker tights (see photos for evidence) is the day I run into one of the Doctors (who, by the way, hasn't been the friendliest one of the bunch). So he stared, I stared back and then tip-toed away.

It's a good thing I was too giddy about the operations I was going to join in on today and felt completely fabulous either way :))

The long day ended with a short trip to the mall with Andy where I finally found the French Vogue. And of course I could not resist the Aldo sale and got that pearl necklace that I have been dreaming about for ages. The ring is the representation of my newest obsession for big jewels.

"Outfit; Lets put a smile on that face, doc"

What's up, doctor? (Me and Andy)

J.D.: [JD needs to have an appendectomy, and asks Carla who the surgeon will be] Yeah, but who's the intern who's going to be doing all the work?

Turk: [slides into JD's room dancing and singing] I get to cut you open, I get to cut you open.

This week I have gone from not knowing what to do with my free time to leaving the house at 7am and coming back home at 7pm after a long day at the hospital and then around town and promptly falling asleep before I even get to take my shoes off.

After what feels like ages in my summer hospital practice (I'm doing it at the Neurosurgery department) today I finally got to do something amazing: I spent 4 and 1/2 hours in an OR and saw 2 hernia operations (can you say ouch?) and a spine tumor operation. I got to wear the scrubs and I got to hang around with the doctors and see the instruments and how a real operation was done. Thank god for the masks or else I would have probably scared everyone with the huge grin on my face.

It's a great feeling when you realize you really did chose the (albeit hard, sleep-deprived and painfully long) right path for your future.

I got to spend a lot of great time with my best friend, just like we used to before university kicked our asses. That is always better than anything really.

PS: A lot of photos from the past two days so my excuses to any dial-up readers.

Subway art is starting to get really good.

"Outfit; What does not kill you, makes you stranger"

This is a double outfit post because last night I slept at my best friend's house and did not have my beloved camera with me. We saw The Dark Night and all I will just say in a few words what so many people have said more eloquently than me: it is an awesome movie and Heath Ledger's performance is one of the best I have seen in years!

Slept two and a half hours last night and I was so sleepy today at the hospital. But a couple of syringes and some running really did the job in keeping me awake. Well, until I got on the tram to get home but that is a different sleepy story.

Song of the Day: Rihanna - Disturbia

"Outfit; Just human nature"

My first day of summer practice started with rain, 7 hours straight without any food and seeing someone's veins way closer than I ever expected. I also found out that next week I will be the one taking blood samples. Did I ever mention I'm a med student with a phobia of syringes?

*














My poor teddies will be my patients for some time, just until I stop running away from needles.



(excuse the bad phone photo quality) Now honestly, don't we look like the kind of future doctors who you'd let get close to you with a needle? Don't answer that!

dress: Mango, fringed scarf: vintage (my mom's), belt: thrift, socks: unknown, beads: thrift (gift from Spain)

Song of the Day: Katy Perry - I Kissed a Girl

"Outfit; Goodbye yesterday's rags, hello surgery ward"

Today was a very long day that started with me literally running out of bed when I realized my alarm did not ring and ending with a long walk with Andy downtown (in the half cloudy/half rainy weather) and some nice news... As of tomorrow I am starting my summer hospital practice, so that is good. The best part is that it will be at the Neurosurgery department and that just has me bouncing on my seat as I type this!

It also means the end of my sleep seeing as I will have to be there at 8am every morning. Sleeping in was good while it lasted. But who knows, maybe there'll be a McDreamy around the corner tomorrow so who cares, right? ;)
