Spent the last 2 months getting to know the OR and getting a taste of how the rest of 3 yrs here in Cleveland is going to be like. I actually really enjoyed it, may be because everything was new to me. I had to refresh and re-learn everything that I have already learned during 4th year.
The environment is adrenaline based for a short period of time and then it would quiet down until other burst of excitement that needed to temper down. Everything is very much about being prepared ahead of time and to anticipate of any problems that might arise. This totally feeds my neurotic need for control. Haha. I'm finding that this was a very good choice for me and my personality. It's funny how we end up in a field that matches our personality to the T.
The only thing that put a damper in my 2 months is that I won't be in the ORs until July, so hopefully by then, I won't forget everything. :) But I'm definitely looking forward to the GenA months where I have a little more freedom to learn how to sink and swim.
