I started writing this post on Match Day as I anxiously waited to open my envelope:

This weekend has been one I have anticipated for a long time. It started two years ago, when scrolling through Facebook posts. One of my friends from undergrad was sharing pictures of her running the ...

One of my favorite parts of UMMS is the plethora of opportunities to pursue and develop your passions. For example, last year, I was one of several artists who were invited to submit artwork to decora...

It's hard to believe that Christmas is so close. The last few months (really, all of M4 thus far) has been such a blur; it seems like the fall term should be barely starting and yet everyone has alrea...

I am sitting in an airport. I seem to be doing this a lot lately. Residency interview season is now in full swing; I'm in the middle of my scheduled interviews. Traveling around the country has been a...

Well, fall appears to have arrived for good at the moment. Although it is Michigan, which means that 80-degree temperatures in October are not out of the question. Either way, it means that classes ar...

The undergraduates have descended upon Ann Arbor – squirrels are being happily fed and newcomers are flummoxed by the Michigan left and one-way streets. But the students' return has heralded the ...

Well, July certainly started off with a bang – from fireworks, that is. I'm on Emergency Medicine this month at nearby hospital St. Joe's. Thankfully, I didn't actually have to work the Fourth of...

Each time I participate in the UMMS interview day, my own interview day seems farther and farther away (and I'm usually quite thankful not to be wearing a suit). Well, the time for dusting off the ...

This month, I'm working as a Family Medicine sub-I (or sub-intern) on the department's inpatient service. Essentially a sub-I is supposed to act like an intern, except for the fact that someone else (...

Yesterday was a momentous day in the lives of my original* classmates, one that they anxiously awaited with anticipation. What event was this? Match Day, where soon-to-be doctors learn where a compute...

It's hard to believe that we now have less than two weeks before we finish our last M3 required rotation. On one hand, it seemed like that the clerkships have been flying by, but it's also hard to ima...

Well, 2016 is finally over! It was definitely a tumultuous year, with the highest of highs and the lowest of lows (and I'm not just talking about Michigan Football). I think everyone had a collective ...

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! It's crazy to think that we're already most of the way through November; July doesn't seem like that long ago…
