#better-yourself

Seriously could not get over Vietnam’s landscapes and views when I was there. These were taken when we were driving our motor bikes from Da Nang to Hue (a 3 hours drive up windy mountains, which really hurt my butt and make me terrified LOL)

In the top picture “A Di Da Phat” translates to “May God be with you” because the mountain roads were so windy. That’s reassuring that we would make it out alive LOL

Also, only in Vietnam would these types of pants be acceptable to wear in public haha it’s the only thing that kind of keeps you cool and prevents you from getting sunburned.

I was listening to embody podcast while I was grocery shopping today and she was talking to her plastic surgeon that did her breast explant.

I got my PASS practical grade back just now and I got an 83.33% (average was 88%). Honestly, I’m upset about it. When we went over it after I did the practical I just messed up on the present disease but I felt like I did history taking well and the PE well. She gave me like half off for the history taking?? I don’t understand. 

I know this is dramatic but it makes me feel like I won’t be a good doctor since I didn’t do well on this stupid practical. 

I think truly I did fine with what they were looking for but my history taking lacked a bit. I needed to extract more information from the patient instead of just going down my list of questions. 

I feel sick. Deep down I’m sure I did fine but I wish I did better. It doesn’t help seeing a classmate on instagram saying “My SP said I’m going to make a great doctor someday” when this guy doesn’t even show up to lab, do his work, or even care about the line of work we are going in.

I also started feeling really lonely since a lot of the class is posting pictures in their white coats making PASS jokes on instagram and I don’t have anyone to do that with or even anyone other than my fiance to practice on.
