First Day - Manic Monday?

Maybe a bit anticlimactic. For probably the first time EVER, I had all my stuff I needed completed and finished. Quite an accomplishment for me as you all know! Started at 8:30, and I'm here writing this at noon! Nothing really major happened today at all - got yet another tour (but I'll still always get lost around the Medical Center!), had to fill out some forms/emergency contacts. They made a big deal in the letter a few weeks ago to bring pens... it was nice to see they actually provided them! Nothing says "rough economy" quite like "bring your own pen, we won't be providing them." My tour guide was an RA in my dorm first year - maybe she looks back on that and laughs? I can't believe that was 4 years ago!

Got fitted for my white coat today - once again my broad shoulders force me to get a huge size that would probably fit most of our "larger" members of the rescue squad. I guess that's what i get for being a swimmer, right? I'll be getting it taken in for sure.

As for the people - I'm really surprised (and psyched) about how down to earth and "socially adept" people we have in our class! I was really expecting some major social issues - science types aren't usually considered the most outgoing and talkative people (for the most part!). Something about spending all their time in a lab. Which is why I majored in Econ! We have to wear our hospital IDs in Jordan Hall (the Med School) at all times - good thing because I'm horrendous with names. Yesterday a bunch of us went out to Crozet to a random watering hole complete with a rope swing... 2 back flops and several curses later I decided maybe swinging wasn't the best idea.
Well I think I've written enough for today. All in all a great day, BBQ tonight. Back on the saddle for our first FULL day tomorrow (8-5... yikes.).

I'm also not sure if I like my setup for the blog. Any suggestions?
