Most of my energy this week was spent on the cervical cancer screening presentation I did this morning, and I realized yesterday that pretty much all I've talked about in my free time is pap smears. My sister was mortified when I went to lunch with her and my mom: "Seriously you can't say pap smear in a restaurant!" and after a 20 minute dinner conversation the next day on the merits and screening guidelines for pap smears, my youngest sister (age 10) wanted to know what the heck a pap smear was...and was most likely scarred for life when my mom tried to explain. It speaks volumes that I a) don't realize that pap smears may be an inappropriate public lunch-time conservation topic and b) greatly enjoy talking about all sorts of gynecological topics in my free time (although I did not enjoy the massive amount of research and slightly boring powerpoint that went into my persentation today). Clearly, I'm probably meant to be an OB/GYN despite how much people have tried to talk me out of it.

I really like the combo of a pencil skirt/graphic tee, although I'm still figuring out how to apply it to 'real life'; I could probably get away with it in the family medicine clinic where I'm working now but normally it would be too casual...

Erika.... I am totally guilty of bringing up inappropriate body functions to non-medsci friends & family too. I don't even realize it, since I spend time with med students who, after a few months, dropped all the private barriers involving bodily functions. I think they're all just excited to practice diagnosing each other before seeing a doc for confirmation. Haha. Nerds.
ReplyDeleteAlso, try looking into silk "t-shirts" to pair with pencil skirts. It will make it more formal, but still very comfortable since that material breaths beautifully.
I love the look of a pencil skirt with a tee and this tee is beautiful! One of the best I've seen. Love the striped pencil skirt too.
