There's a hush that comes over the school during this week, a hush caused by students collectively gathering their wits, reviewing until they're punch drunk, and then regurgitating, often onto paper, their knowledge of the myriad subjects we're expected to master.
Honestly, I think the silence is simply due to all of us conserving what little energy we have and focusing that on writing down answers and not wanting to waste any effort on speaking even a little.
It's intense, and we're in the midst.
The cool thing? By this time next week we'll all feel lighter (mostly because we dumped volumes of information, which must certainly weigh something, out of our heads). And we'll all be in dire need of a brief respite from the intensity of our program.
I am taking a break clinic, which means no break, but a lovely transition from observing to treating, with a supervisor whose manner and approach resonate nicely with my own.
Ok, now back to the books.
