Well, I made it through the first day! YAYY!
What a day...my schedule went as planned. I got up at 5am to work out, which was good. I walked on a janky treadmill that maxed out at 7mph but I worked out until 6am. Then showered, ate, and got ready and was out the door by 6:45am.
The commute was nice, took longer than expected because of construction - but what's new? We got there really early, as in first ones there early, but I'm OK with that. We had a nice breakfast and mingled with preceptors and met lots of people, in which I won't remember their names. After that, we took a 2 hour tour of the hospital. I guess I never realized how extensive and massive this hospital campus really is. So many hallways and buildings and numbers and letters to coordinate my destination.
But I get a beeper. So that makes it completely legit.
After that, we ate a scrumptious box lunch and listened to some more administrative assistants and directors talk about their positions and how we'll be seeing them around. Then, we got our ID badges...SOOO cool! We look like everyone else, with our badges.
Ohhh yea....
After that we filled out some paperwork and were free to go! We get our master schedules tomorrow which will outline which rotations we do when, as well as who our preceptors will be. So exciting!
If anything, I'm just glad the first day is over. The nervousness is no longer there. The other interns are cool and legit, and our directors and people we report to are no longer quite as intimidating. What just stinks the most is not being able to share in person my excitement with the bf or my mom or sister. Boo. But as all the past interns and preceptors said today, "it goes by so fast and it'll be over before you know it!"
Lets just hope.
296 days...
