Figured it out

Why my blog has become so whiny. I used to just write about stuff that I also talked about with my friends, but looks like I don't feel the need to repeat myself on here. So I've just been writing what I don't like talking to friends about, and that's all the whining. Kinda mad that it took me this long to get it, but hey, I'll take it. So there you go, Internet. You're my diary... oh boy. I see this discontinuing soon unless something changes.

Switchin' things up

So I did a little review of my blog today. Everything I've written so far has been about my own life, and most of it is kind of whiny and boring. Like nearly everything. So until my life becomes more interesting, I'm going to try writing about other things. I haven't decided exactly what yet, and I also don't know if it's going to carry some kind of unified theme or not. But it'll be something. Let's see how it goes. If anyone still reads this thing, feel free to comment to this post and leave suggestions! Alternately you can just read about whatever it is you feel like reading about from someone who writes better. But you'll be a much cooler person if you comment =)

But of course, a quick update:
I am having a great time these days. I'm at the end of my third year, the end is finally in sight. I'm set on Ob/Gyn and have never been more excited or sure about anything in my life. Moving into Manhattan has been great for my social life. I've had the chance to meet so many people, some of them fantastic, others not so much, but all the same it makes life that much more entertaining. I am a little apprehensive about where I will end up for residency, but like other situations where I faced uncertainty, I am telling myself that whatever works out will be good for me. And I believe it. Mostly. A lot of my friends are moving on with their lives too, in terms of preparing for their residencies or getting married and finishing their degrees and that sort of thing. Everyone's starting to grow up and it's a good feeling. I remember back in college I was terrified of graduating and losing that sense of being care-free and having no real responsibilities. I don't feel that way anymore. I think at this point it's easier to see that while getting older and moving forward does come with increased responsibility, there's also a lot more fun to be had. Oddly enough, my fear of pregnancy is gone. Perhaps this is my ovaries talking but I'm looking forward to having kids of my own and being a parent some day. I'm not in a rush, but when the time is right I think it'll be a lot of fun. Hopefully this good feeling lasts for awhile!
