I just called a parent to tell them the results of a test we did while their child was in the hospital. I got the answering maching, and remembering that the mother said it was ok to leave the result on the machine, I left a message indicating the result. What I did wrong was end the message with, "See you soon!" Hmm... not my best moment of internship, for sure!
On another note, one that is unrelated to the title of this post....
My co-intern, David Drossner would like to be mentioned on my blog so here goes: "David Drossner."
Well, I guess can tell you a bit about him. He's got ridiculously curly hair that would be as difficult to uncurl, I imagine, as a dog's tail. He never wears his white coat. He's from Florida. He's married (sorry to those of you who are turned on by the prominent alliteration). He can be found reading the NY times at Highland Bakery on post-call days. He feels that the hospital librarian is the best looking librarian he has ever met. He often answers to nicknames such as "Drossy" and "D-Ross." I hope I am not too revealing in these details about you, David. I expect a comment from you.

Top 11 moments of 2006
Here they are, in chronological order:
1. Spending Jan 1. 2006 with Yasmin. YYYUMMY!
2. My brother's wedding in San Diego, CA on March 13, 2006 (specifically gettin' DOWN on the dance floor at the reception)
3. My whole India trip in April was fantastic, but the greatest moment of that trip I would have to say was buying a 100 rupees worth of vegetables at night and feeding the hungry stray cows on the side of the street with my own bare hands in the small holy town of Vrindavan. And then examining the vegetable-wala's foot after a cow stepped on his toe.
4. Backstage before graduation in May. I'll never forget how we all applauded each other before and during when we walked across the stage. We sure went through something very special with each other! I miss you guys! Oh, and I was so proud of Gonzo when he delivered an awesome speech, the best one of the night for sure. I also remembering jumping up and down with my diploma when I reached the end of the stage and gesturing to my family in the audience.
5. Getting ready with Yasmin and Ahila at Ahila's apartment before Nausheen's wedding. I was helping Y and A put on their sarees. Boy would that have sucked for them if I hadn't been there. he he. Boy did we look HOT! Oh and to go along with this, putting on the skit with Atul, Bunmi, Yasmin, Erica and Ahila was soooo much fun! We were pretty damn funny, if I do say so myself. I should find that skit and put it up on my blog.
6. Reconnecting with my friend Maggie in Connecticut when I interviewed at Yale. There is nothing more special than catching up with an old friend and discovering that you still love each other a lot.
7. Meeting my fellow interns on the first day of Orientation in July. I was so relieved to discover that everyone was so nice! Specifically, it was great meeting Anjali who lives so close to me now... we clicked right away and she is a very special friend to me. I also have to add that meeting Joyee is a top 10 2006 moment. I met her through a mutual friend and she really made me feel so much better about handling internship.
8. Surviving my first day of call = my first day of internship.
9. Intern retreat 2006! Sooo much fun!!!
10. Ice-skating in Olympic Centennial Park 2006. I didn't fall once!
11. Four days off for Christmas 2006, during which I spent time with my mom, dad and my brother, who I hadn't seen in 7 months. We had good food, good fun and a lot of laughs together.
