Hello everybody!
It's Sunday, today I'm studying at a cafe and then I'm gonna shop for some glasses cause
I've had my current ones for about 2 years and I think it's time for a change.
I just a couple hours of studying.
I'm adjusting back from night float.
It's like 4pm or something and it's actually when I would just be waking up.
My nights and days are flipped.
So, I'm pretty tired today so I wanted to get some studying done so I felt like I should
get out of the house and go to a coffee shop.
Usually that helps--the change of scenery, so that's what I did.
Now, I'm gonna go try on some glasses and take a little break.
Look guys, free books!
Hey guys, I just got out of Warby Parker.
I tried on some frames.
The ones I tried on are Laurel, Barnett, Bensen, Collins, and Ames.
Let me know which one you guys like best in the comment section.
I tried on some other fun pairs as well.
If you don't live near a Warby Parker store you can do a free at home try on at warbyparker.com/strive.
You can try of up to five pairs for free so you can see which one is your favorite.
Postage is included so you can just send them back when you're done.
Most of the frames are actually $95 including the lens so thats actually a pretty good price
for a pair of glasses.
One of the pairs I tried on is called Collins.
That one is actually low bridge style.
It's made for people with wider faces, or lower nose bridge, or high cheek bones.
So sometimes I have trouble getting glasses because my nose bridge is a little lower and
my face is a little wider.
So that one was a really good style for me.
I think I may be going with that one, but let me know what you guys think.
So actually the last time I got my eyes checked was two years ago when I got my glasses that
I have right now.
And I got really lucky because when I went in, they said that the next available appointment
was next week.
But as soon as they told me that, someone cancelled and I was able to get my eyes checked
right-away.
So I lucked out there.
I'm gonna link the website below if you guys wanna check it out.
And now we're headed to the Google Pop-up Store to check out the new Google Phone.
So we just checked out the Google Store.
They had the new Google Phone--the Pixel.
We were checking it out.
It had some really good screen and display quality, and video quality.
It's nicely integrated with all your Google stuff like Gmail, Google Calendar, I think
it comes with free unlimited storage.
So that's really nice if you're constantly running out of space on your phone because
of all the pictures you're taking.
But it's really hard to leave iPhone because all my friends on iPhone and I'm so used to
like iMessage and Facetime and all that but possibly in the future I may consider switching.
Hey guys, so I just got home from being out and about.
I picked up a cute little map from Warby Parker.
It's called the best spot to sit and read in lower manhattan map.
It's like a hand drawn map.
It's pretty cute I don't know how realistic these places are cause some of them are like
the bench on Wooster, or something like that.
A bench on Mulberry, Red bench on Mulberry, the milk crate next to the halal cart on Canal,
chair on Watts, bench above Broome, It's kinda like a fun little map, I don't know how practical
it is in terms on actual information but I picked it up because I thought it was cute.
As you guys know, I just came off of night float last week, if you saw my last vlog.
I was doing night float all week and now I'm adjusting back to day time schedule so it's
been a little hard this weekend.
I'm just getting used to waking up in the morning again and sleeping at night again.
Some of the things that really helped me is taking melatonin at night or right before
I sleep.
So during night shift, during night float week, I would take these in the morning when
I got home from the hospital and then I would have no problem sleeping until 1pm.
Now that I'm trying to adjust back to day time schedule, I would take these before I
go to bed and more or less over the weekend I did that and I feel like I've almost adjusted
back.
So on Saturday I woke up around 11am, today I woke up around, today is Sunday, I woke
up around 9am and now tomorrow is Monday, I'm going to work at 6:30 in the morning so
I'm gonna be waking up at around 5am.
So that's a bit of a jump but I think I should be able to sleep well with melatonin.
Another thing I've been doing is getting out of the house, getting a workout in, and drinking
coffee when I wake up so that, that keeps me up during the day.
And I feel like, I'm almost ready to go back to day-time schedule.
Honestly, it's not too different from being jet-lagged if you just live your life, and
do things, at one point or another, you'll just adjust back.
It hasn't been too bad, so that's what I've been doing over the weekend.
I showed you guys these little study cards before and you guys asked me how make it and
how I organize it.
When you're studying a disease a really good way to kind of organize what you need to know
about a disease is thinking about it in terms of 1.
what is the population of patients that get the disease, for example, is it older people,
younger people, smoking population, or certain ethnicities, like what are the risk factors
of the disease.
2. is what is the pathophysiology of the disease so what is biological or molecular mechanism
behind a disease.
3.
What are some of the signs and symptoms that patients might come in complaining when they
have this disease.
4.
What are some of the treatment options for this disease.
5.
Is anything else that's extra--that pertains to the disease.
Like is it associated with another disease or just like any other miscellaneous information
about the disease.
So thats kinda like how I organize these cards.
This one is about pre-term labor.
And I have a bunch of these.
I think this is a really good way for me to kind of do a little bit of studying throughout
my ob/gyn rotation.
I actually have it in this little pink container for my note cards.
I keep it with me at all times.
I also bought something like this where it's like notecards but it's in a spiral bound
notebook format so I can keep it with me at all times.
I think this is a good way to keep your study materials with you.
So pretty much these cards is how I've been studying for ob-gyn and certain diseases in
on ob-gyn.
And now that my shelf is closer, I'm doing a little more of question based studying so
today you guys saw me at the cafe doing some stuff from this Case Files book and I thought
this book was a good book to carry with me because it's small.
When you're going to a cafe or sometimes even the library, it's really easy to bring everything
with you but then when you get there, you don't really know what to do with yourself
with all the study materials you brought.
So sometimes it's helpful to bring one book and while you're there at the cafe or in the
library, you just focused on that one material and that can really help you focus your time,
and you're not wasting time trying to figure out should I do this, should I do that.
I knew where I was going the internet might be slow or a little spotty, so I didn't wanna
bring my computer or my iPad to do questions online.
I felt like I could do that today, like tonight like right now.
But I wanted to do some case studies from this book too, so I knew I didn't need the
internet for this so this is the book that I brought.
I'm gonna change and get some studying done.
I will talk to you guys in a little bit.
Hey guys, I'm gonna end the vlog here.
Don't forget to tell me in the comments below which glasses you guys like the best.
Or if you have a pair from warby parker already, let me know which model you have and how you
like it.
Hope you guys enjoyed the vlog.
Comment, like and subscribe and I will see you guys in the next video.
Bye!
