Visit to the Bay Area, Part I

A couple weeks ago, I made my first visit to the Bay Area for my interviews. I heart California... One program I loved; one program I hated. But I had a great weekend with my med school/internship friend. We went to the Ferry Building and enjoyed the weekend farmers' market. I found olallieberry jam which is a favorite of Davey, my displaced California friend who lives in Chicago, so I bought him a little jar. Which got taken away from me as I went through security at the Oakland Airport on the way back. Apparently, olallieberry jam is considered a "gel."

I was so PISSED. Not to mention, Southwest canceled my flight and I got rerouted to Las Vegas. I didn't land in Chicago until 2am. and then Armand went to the WRONG airport to try and pick me up so I ended up taking a cab home anyway. Sigh.

On another depressing note, I'm currently in the pediatric intensive care unit. It's slowly killing me. I didn't even have the energy to count up how many hours I've been working per week. I have just a little over 2 weeks left and I don't know how I'm going to survive.

I left my camera behind at my friend's house in the bay area so I'll post again when I get it back... we went on a Santa Cruz winery tour, which was fun!
