Revealing

No matter what I do or how much I accomplish, part of me still feels like the world sees me as the little girl with coke bottle glasses and asthma that no one wanted to play with.

Summer

Boards - took 'em. Might have passed. I was initially going for getting at least the average on them (beating it would have been nice). At this point, I just hope I pass, and I only want to pass because I don't want to have to take them again.

All I know is that I felt pretty ok leaving both of them and that around 4 pm this afternoon, I temporarily lost the ability to form a coherent sentence.

Residencies look at things besides boards, right? Like...research, Step 2, clinical grades, other grades, letters of recommendation...right?
