This calls for a celebration...


I don't really like to talk about my work life too much on this blog (after all, the reason I started blogging was to give myself a little escape from it)... but this news is too big not to share.

My husband and I are both medical residents in our final year of training in Family Medicine, and we just found out that we both passed our Canadian certification exams!
After a bachelors degree, after 4 years of medical school and 2 years of residency, I can finally say that I am DONE with school and DONE with exams... forever! 
I never thought this day would actually come!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend. You know I'll be celebrating, that's for sure!

Here's a fantastic new song by Beirut, from the upcoming new album...
