Is it already the end of FIRST YEAR?? WOW, I can't believe how much I've learned, forgotten, and re-learned over the course of the year. The same will be repeated again second year, I'm sure.
My class celebrated the end of our year with an Annual Western U Banquet in our very own school hometown, Pomona. Stop laughing! It was fun. Sure, the view was of the 60 freeway...But fun, nonetheless with the people who were my companions and best friends throughout the year.
First year was full of anxiety, stress, coffee (I'm officially dependent), lack of sleep, and studying. Regardless of the negatives, I know that each one of us can look back and see the joy that we've experienced and be proud of the amount of knowledge and wisdom we've gained in just one year. Of course, I can't end this without saying a a big THANK YOU to my supportive family members, boyfriend, and friends outside of school. Thank you for allowing me to vent, complain, and speak to you in a language that don't include the words neutrophil, encephalitis, or sacral torsion.
Here are a few photos from the night. One of my favorites is Vince gettin' down with one of our Surgeon specialists. We had a few of our other faculty members there who were having loads of fun on the dance floor too!
My dress was $20.00 (sale rack!) from a small boutique in Long Beach, called Doppochic right next to Le Creperie.
The Nguyens. Jen and I are always in the same group because of our last name. That's how we met!
