Yea! We booked our trip to Buenos Aires! I can't express how excited I am to go. I did a tango (in my head because I can't dance) all the way down the muddy trail back to school to review neuroscience after clicking YES to Argentina. We will fly out the Wednesday after our last final (I intend on spending my days off in the gym and on the beach). We will land in Puerto Rico in the morning and hang out at the BEAUTIFUL airport until 7:00pm, but who the heck cares: there is a Starbucks!! Then we will take a nice hop over to Panama...you know the place with the big canal. I'm not sure when we leave there, but it is a straight red-eye to Argentina! We will arrive at 6:00am. Then it's time for some breakfast STEAK!! We get to spend six glorious days and five tango-filled nights in Buenos Aires. Then it's just a hop, skip and a jump back to Panama then to San Juan. We will stay two nights so that we can ship supplies back to Dominica. Then we have to go to every island in the Caribbean to get back to Dominica, but heck, we are students on a budget.
However, before we get to tango the nights away, eat lots of Argentina beef and wine taste our way across Buenos Aires, there are approximately 300 million exams left in the semester. That is correct, we are halfway done with the semester but we have only taken two exams and have 300 million exams left. Obviously, 290 million of them are all in one week. August is going to be awesome!!

Nicole, MD
I'm no longer an expatriate. I started my 3rd year of medical school in Miami and have finished my first set of medical boards, which I passed! I've been to the little island of Dominica and Miami. I completed my Family Medicine, OB/GYN and Internal Medicine clerkships while living in the beautiful city of Miami Beach, FL. I moved to New York City in the beginning of August 2011, passed my second set of boards and finished rotations in Astoria, Queens in December 2011. I have not been posting as much as I have been extremely busy. It is hard to believe that I finished medical school, landed a pediatrics residency and that I'm finally Nicole, M.D.
