Life with MK: Glorious Switch Weekend

This weekend was my second switch weekend. What is a switch weekend, you ask? Its the glorious time between two rotations when we have no responsibilities and do not have any pressures to be anywhere or to study anything. These infrequent weekends are so necessary and wonderful. I took the Family Medicine shelf Friday morning, and hopefully that went well. It takes a long time to get grades for anything which is weird after two years of instantly getting our scores for everything. Anyways, after the shelf I finally got my haircut, only eight months later than I meant to, and after that I went downtown with some classmates to catch up. It was a really fun night that ended with Snickers Ice Cream bars and My Big Fat Greek Wedding while laying down on my friend's floor. Good times.

Saturday was a day I had been planning for quite some time. I slept in and got some stuff done around the house and then met up with Lindsay and Stephanie and went to the International Champions Cup game to see Manchester United and Real Madrid play in a fantastic soccer (or should I say football) match. It was my first professional soccer game and it was also the most people attending a soccer game in US history! I have now been at the record setting soccer and football games in the US, all in the last year! The Big House is really cool for that. The Big House also holds the record for the largest crowd at a hockey game. Yay. Anyways, the game was super fun and we had a really great time! When I got home I made a Plated (which was AMAZING) and just relaxed at home.

Sunday I slept in again and didn't do a whole lot. I went to Jazzercise, got a new pair of lulu lemon pants, and rode m bike some. My bike ride was strange and somehow I ended up going in a circle and all of a sudden I was basically home and I didn't even realize it! So needless to say my ride was shorter than expected, but still nice. Besides being outside I did some cleaning and watched some Lifetime movies (why are they always so bizarre?!) and made some ravioli with a homemade mix of cipollini onions, fennel, and heirloom tomatoes with fresh basil from my balcony. Fun times!

Tomorrow it is off to Neurology for one month of localizing lesions and working everything up to no end. Should be an interesting month, though I hear there is a LOT of down time. We shall see. Also, I added some pics below of the new floors in the condo :)
