I survived orientation! It’s quite the accomplishment. All the directors and speakers tried to make it as painless as possible, but still a full week of orientation lectures is draining. Tomorrow I start my first rotation at St. Vincent’s. It’s a community nutrition rotation. Interns are responsible for contacting preceptors one week in advance so I’ve already spoken a bit with my preceptor and she says it will be a laid back rotation. That’s always a great way to start out J
Today was also the first day of classes. Normally there’s nothing to report about first days, but today was a bit memorable. It was a beautiful sunny morning. Everything was off to a great start. Class had just started and then….Blackout!! The power went out all over campus! And in a room without windows, it really is a blackout. We sat in the dark for a while, and then our professor said we could go home. She didn’t want us all to start cooking without power for the AC. So down the starts we went. But just as I got to the second floor, what happens? Yup, the power comes back on. So, it was back up the stairs for me and once again time to start my three-hour class. Major head fake, thanks power people, ugh.
