Hi everyone! (mumbled words) Hi everyone!
Happy Saturday so today I have the day off so I'm just hanging out, walking around, I'm
gonna vlog and bring you guys along with me.
Bae is here too!
(Shopping right?)
Bae:(Did you decide on what shoes you're gonna get?)
Jamie: No, I don't think I'm gonna get anything here.
Bae: Why not?
Jamie: They don't feel perfect.
Bae: Do you wanna go to Adidas right now?
Jamie: Yeah but I wanna get this long sleeved shirt for running for when it gets a little
colder.
I'm home!
Let me show you guys what I got.
I got these running shoes.
They're from Adidas and I think they're called Ultraboost Cage Lifts.. something.
They're basically like a sock with some cushioning on the bottom and they're really comfortable
when I tried it out at the store.
So we'll see how they feel tomorrow when I go on my long run.
And also, I picked up a long sleeved shirt from Nike.
Just a regular white long sleeve shirt with some venting in the back so I think these
will be good for like cool fall day run.
I'm super excited to run now that I have all these new things I can try out tomorrow.
Yay!
So today is Sunday.
So yesterday after I came back from shopping and getting the sneakers and the shirt.
I rested for a little bit and then I worked on my presentation for Monday.
In medicine and other rotations, the residents have something called morning report which
is supposed to be an educational time for everyone--residents and students.
So my team is going to be presenting a patient and I had to prepare a small powerpoint presentation
about the topic.
So I think we are presenting a patient who ended up having a retroperitoneal mass so
I prepared a little a very short powerpoint presentation.
So that's what I did yesterday.
Today is Sunday and Sunday usually when I do my long runs.
So I'm gonna be going for a run in a little bit.
It was raining this morning but I think it stopped.
It's a little humid.
I think today...
I think it's still gonna be a decent weather for the run.
So I'm gonna go to Central Park and do my long run.
Alright, I'm gonna get ready.
Gonna run in my new shoes!
Adidas Ultraboost.
I'll let you guys know what it's like.
I'm still trying out a bunch of different shoes.
So far I've run in 3 different types of sneakers, some old, some new.
And I feel like don't have a good sense of like what's the right type of sneakers for
me so I'm just trying them out and kinda seeing how I feel.
So Ultraboost is gonna be the sneakers I'm gonna be wearing today.
Let's see how it goes!
So we're gonna start here on 90th street.
Go around the loop all the way down.
All the down to 59th/57th street and then crossover at 72nd, do this loop one more time
and then come back up to 90th street here again.
Bae: I'll just wait for you here.
Jamie: Why?
You're gonna quit?
Jamie: Oh you're gonna get here faster you mean?
Bae: No, I mean just chill here for an hour.
It's a cloudy day.
Bae: How was is?
Jamie: It's so hard.
Oh my god, do I look crazy?
I ran 7.8 miles.
This is the longest run of my life.
Bae: Are you improving?
Jamie: Let's see.
Here are my splits.
I stayed pretty consistent.
I feel like this is how I was running like two months ago.
Bae: That's good.
I mean you still have two months.
So review of the shoes.
It was pretty good.
I felt pretty comfortable.
I didn't have any crazy aches or anything.
I did get this nasty blister on the back of my heel and a lot of people had complained
about this in the reviews and I guess my socks weren't high enough so I got this blister.
Both sides actually.
But other than that I thought it was a pretty good, comfortable shoes to run in.
So I would do it again.
I would just wear higher socks.
So I'm mentioned earlier today that I'm trying out three different pairs of running shoes
and I just wanted to show you guys which ones they are.
These are my first running shoes.
There still relatively new.
They're from Nike.
They're Nike Zoom All-Out and it's got this like... clear, what do you call this, air
space, bubble thing for support.
The other pair I have are these asics.
These are the Kayano 24s, I believe.. the Gel Kayano 24.
These actually felt like were a little tight in the widest part of my foot.
I do have kind of a wide feet so.. these I remember hurting a little bit when I first
ran in them.
And the pair that I got most recently is this Adidas Ultraboost and I showed you guys the
blister that I got from here.
I need to definitely wear higher socks.
Something that I found out yesterday at Nike when I was looking at shoes: you can run in
their shoes but if you don't like them you can actually return them even after you run
in them.
I don't know if it's true for asics or Adidas but for Nike they definitely said you can
run in them and you can bring them back if you don't like it even if you have worn it
already.
So that's pretty cool.
If you guys are in the market for new running shoes you can try it out and bring it back
if you don't like it.
Hey guys so it's about...
I'm not wearing my watch...
It's about 9 o'clock on a Sunday night.
Tomorrow I'm gonna be moving down to my hospital.
I told you guys it was a little far so I'm commuting but I'm gonna stay there for a week
because housing became available.
So I'm packing right now bit of a mess here.
I have all my work clothes here.
Just keeping in simple cause I'm gonna be there for a week.
I have like black pants and then I have this gray sleeveless shells in three different
colors.
They're all from Ann Taylor.
It's like silk in the front and it's like cotton in the back so they're pretty comfortable.
I have in black, navy and this blush pink.
color and then some workout clothes here and some lounge clothes and toiletries and sneakers
and everything is in here right now.
Not quiet done packing.
It's gonna be really nice not having to commute too far every morning.
I'm really looking forward to staying there.
I'm gonna be staying with my friend Dania.
She's also doing her rotation at the same hospital so we're gonna stay together.
Tomorrow I'm gonna be getting up at like 5am and leaving by 5:30am as I've been doing for
the past two weeks.
But after that I'm going to be staying there and I can sleep in till like 6am so it will
be a lot nicer.
So I'm gonna continue packing and I will check in with you guys later.
Alright so I'm all packed in this little suitcase.
So for those of you wondering, Candy is staying with Bae for the time being.
I can't exactly bring her to the hospital housing.
So she's gonna be staying with him for the week.
Having a cat, even thought they can be pretty low maintenance can be tough sometimes in
medical school.
In 4th year especially you end up doing a lot of traveling from away rotations and interviews
and things like that so it's nice to have somebody you can trust and who can look after
your cat.
So plan for the rest of the night it's about 9:40 something so I'm gonna practice by presentation
a little more.
You do a lot of presentations in medical school.
You do a lot of public speaking in small groups and big groups but I still get a little nervous
especially the one for tomorrow because I'm gonna be speaking in front of all the residents
and attendings... or some of the attendings.
So I'm just gonna go over my presentation to make sure I know everything that I'm gonna
say and just practice my presentation a couple times so that I'm really ready.
So I'm gonna do that and I'm gonna head to bed because I have to wake up early tomorrow
to drive to the hospital.
So I hope you guys enjoyed the vlog and I will see you guys in the next video!
Byee!
