surprise email

Yesterday, while having a crazy on-call day, I received an email saying that my abstract was selected for a "platform presentation" at the big PAS (pediatric academic society) meeting in May. I was surprised because I thought I was going to make a poster and stand by it while maybe a couple people come up to chat about my project. But now, I have to give an oral presentation during the session for "Medical Education: Curriculum" and have a Q&A session. I'm honored and excited, but really? TOTALLY stressed out.

Maybe this is a good sign that my paper will be accepted to our first choice journal...? Though, I did have a dream last week that it was rejected. :(
