During the week I started to feel like this experience has made me have to grow up a lot faster than I have planned. Don't get me wrong, it isn't a bad thing it just made me realize how fast childhood really goes by. Being around only adults at work has made me grow as a person and see the reality of things. This experience has truly helped me grow up into the person I have always wanted to be. My co workers have been so helpful and kind throughout my whole experience that has helped me feel comfortable in a new setting. As the week had gone on things have stayed calm but have been very knowledgeable. I was able to talk to one of the doctors about how exciting cardiology is. Everyday he says he learns something new that he never went over as much in college as he should have. Hearing all of his advice was really helpful to me. I'm so happy I have such amazing people around me at my experience.
During week two of my experience I was surprised to hear all of the gossip going on in the office. The nurses were complaining about the doctors and how they didn't have a lot of respect for the other staff. They way they were talking about it was very openly with the other staff. I never expected there to be as much gossip as there was. The whole week this went on and I did my best to avoid it. That much gossip was something I've never seen during work. Even though I might agree with the nurses and other staff I know staying out of the drama is a good idea. Other than the drama I was given more work than usual this week but was excited to finish it all.
My last two goals for this experience have been the same but I am determined to accomplish them. I will admit I've always been afraid to break from my shell and these past few months I have been getting better but I am not exactly where I want to be. My hopes for the end of my senior year will be to accomplish my goal. I will do everything in my power to give myself opportunities to do so. I know if I put myself in situations I normally wouldn't this will help me. Being around new people and new experience will help me open up. Without a doubt in my mind I know I can do this. This is going to be one of the hardest things I have ever done but it is something I know needs to change.
