here you go, jerry and karin!  i hate updating. 

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO..... I JUST FINISHED MY LAST CLASS EVER ON SABA!!!  (hopefully...)  my final block of exams is this monday!

so why am i stuck on the island for an additional month after this???

because my school is the gay.  we have to take a mandatory kaplan course to prepare us for the USMLE step 1 (which is the american board exam i have to pass in order to complete my basic sciences part and to be able to continue into the clinical rotations part).  this kaplan course consists of endless hours of TAPED lectures!  oh gosh, it's so painful!  so after monday, we will have to sit in class and watch 8 hours of tapes.  at the end of this, we have to take their kaplan final exam (which is a mock exam of the USMLE 1) and if we don't pass then we don't get to leave the island!!! so, i guess i can't sleep through these videos.

also, on top of this kaplan final, we have a pathology shelf exam (a national exam to compare ourselves to the rest of the states), a journal thing to write up, and some oral exams.  all of which i have yet to study for and do.  yay me! 

BUT I'M DONE CLASSES!!! 

if only the videos were as interesting as days of our lives... then i could watch it non-stop.
