fritter and waste

i'm counting down the days until surgery is over. actually, i was feeling a little guilty the other day, that i haven't really thrown myself into this rotation. i know surgery isn't my thing. but i think i would've gotten a lot more out of it, if i'd put more effort in. you only get out what you put in. while i can say i've genuinely tried to make the ward run smoothly, at the same time, i have tried to do as little surgical things as possible. i have never offered to close. i have never offered to scrub in. instead, i've encouraged so many of the students take my place in theatre that the bosses have started insisting i scrub in for at least a few cases.

i should be more aware of what opportunities i'm offhandedly throwing away...
