There's no reason for this to be so late. I didn't write an update at the end of May because I was thinking about boards, which I took the 1st and 8th of June and elaborated on here when I couldn't sleep one night in late May. (The third and fourth paragraphs in the linked-to post explain the tests).
This month, I've been relaxing, catching up on housework, getting things ready for next semester, and most recently, spending time with a friend from college who lives in Virginia. We've seen colonial Williamsburg, swum in the James River (runs through Richmond), been to DC, and a few other things. It's been good seeing him again.
As I mention in the blog post about the boards, my plan after I graduate med school is to do a residency in La Jolla, California, near where much of my extended family is. I'm still not sure it will be possible, but that's what I'm hoping for right now; I mention it now because it's been on my mind since I have to start planning and preparing well in advance for residency, especially if I want to apply for one that will be at all competitive.
I'll get back on track with monthly newsletters soon.
