Residency Dinner

Bryan had his interview for Scott and White in Temple yesterday, and it went great, he said! The night before each interview there is a dinner for the interviewing medical students and the current residents. This is the time for the students to ask the residents questions about the program and such that they wouldn't ask the actual faculty (such as, "Do you really like it here?" and "How many hours do you actually work per week?") . Bryan invited Sarah and I to accompany him to the dinner, so after work and school on Monday, we drove down to Temple. The dinner was at the home of one of the anesthesia doctors. Once the initial mingling was done, everyone chose a various seat throughout the kitchen, dining room, and den to eat. We sat next to two really nice first year residents and one of their boyfriends. Well, as you can imagine, they just ate Sarah up. Since the residents were both girls, they asked Sarah about everything from her age to her sparkly shoes and matching purse. At one point, she whispered to me, "Mom, they love me." We had a really good time and it was nice to meet a few of the people that Bryan may be working with if he chooses to do residency at Scott and White.
