We meet again

Hello. My name is Maegan, nice to meet you...

I can't believe it has been over a month since I blogged! So many things have happened/changed in a month. The last time I blogged was right before Germany, so we'll pick up there. I plan on blogging day-by-day what happened in Germany b/c we have awesome pictures to share. It was the most amazing experience of my life and I want to go back ASAP. The Sims were absolutely incredible and we definitely would not have had as much fun or been able to function without them. We got back on Friday the 25th, and Tuesday I had a happy surprise waiting for me... my Board scores! I passed!! Not only did I pass, but I was above the national average on all 4 sections! Most of my friends scored higher than me, but I am just so proud of all of us for getting through it, so I don't even care that I'm the low man on the totem pole. I'm not a huge cry-er, but I had some good tears flowing when I opened that letter. It was one of the happiest moments of my life! I took the next few days to do absolutely nothing before going back to school on July 5th. School started back full swing, and I had a weeks worth of lectures and labs before seeing my first patient. Yes, that's right- I saw my first patient! Well, now I've seen several... It is so fun/confusing/frustrating/humbling/exciting all at the same time. There is so much to do and learn! So far all I have done is new patient exams, which aren't very hard or exciting, but still a challenge. I know I will have good stories to share throughout the year, but so far, nothing out of the ordinary. After a long week of being in clinic, Jordan and I left bright and early on Saturday morning to go to DFW for a wedding. The groom was in Jordan's fraternity, so we got to see some of our closest friends from college that we haven't seen in a while, and some since our own wedding. We had so much fun catching up with everyone and getting to see some good friends on their special day.

Hopefully tomorrow I will start my Germany posts, but don't hold your breath!
