Ahh this is the life!!!

So today i realized what the rest of America probably realized all the time and i never knew....how to enjoy a weekend!!

this is really the first weekend since i started medical school 2 years ago that i could enjoy my weekend without feeling guilty about it...normally my weekends were spent studying for the exam i had on monday...and since i had an exam every monday for nearly two years, thats a lot of weekends spent at starbucks, panera, the lib, einstein bagel, IHOP, Denny's, a different starbucks, Barnes n Noble, Borders, Storks Coffee Shop or some other place we had discovered as a study location....

nope this weekend was awesome....

I woke up naturally, around 8am, worked out for 2 hours, met some friends for lunch or brunch...then spent the rest of the day hanging out with friends...mall, flea market, poolside, got a manicure/pedicure, enjoyed a home cooked meal made by my roommate, did some laundry, actually got some reading done for work on monday....but one thing was missing, and this was a nearly ubiquitous staple in my weekends prior to this one....can you guess what i am referring to???





i will give you another chance.....






its a cause for a variety of health problems seen in nearly population, part of the country and gender....






still thinking...






fine, i guess i will tell you....






STRESS!!!!! this weekend was completely devoid of stress that had always been there since the start of school in aug of 2005.

This is by far one of the best weekends in a long time :)

well to finish off the weekend i am going to take a nice long shower and put on some PJ's and watch some TV on the most comfortable couch ever.....
