Light At The End Of The Tunnel

Told you I wouldn’t be gone for too long this time around 😉 First things first, I hope you all had as happy of a holiday season and start to the New Year as you had hoped for! I can certainly say that my New Year started off with a heck of a bang! Bringing […]

The Power of Persistence

I blinked and realized that it had been six months since I was last here with an update. I’m really getting bad at keeping up with this lol. When I first started the blog, I told myself that I would be consistent with my posts and that I would never let myself fall off. Throughout […]

Bliss In Chaos

I’M BAAAAACK 😜 Hope you didn’t miss me too much! It’s been quite a while since my last post in January (I’m starting to sound like a broken record 😅) and I’ve lived a lot of life since then, so you already know that I have a ton of updates to catch you up on! […]

The Catch Up

I knew it was going to be tough to continue keeping up with a consistent posting schedule once I got into fellowship…but FIVE months without a post?? What’s up with that?? Where did the time go?? C’mon Christel, do better. 🙄 It’s so hard for me to believe that I went four straight years posting […]

*Pssst!* Hey, you. Yeah, you reading this sentence. Do you hear that? No? Be still and quiet, and wait a few seconds. Now do you hear it?

Lol, it’s been a while since my last post. Three months, two months, and six days, to be exact. That’s 111 days. ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN DAYS. How in the world did I let 111 days go by without an update?? Spoiler alert, I’ve been working my butt off. 🙃 In the time between my […]

Whether I’m at work, at home, or out in the community doing who knows what, everyone seems to always be in such a great mood. Because I had a lighter […]

Riding The Wave

And just like that, I’m almost halfway done with my first year of fellowship. While January will be the official halfway point of my academic year, I figured that it was worth noting just how close I am to that halfway point and just how fast time is moving. It’s baffling to me that it […]

A New Level

When I was a resident, I always wondered what attendings and fellows did after morning rounds. I knew that I was grinding out my work all day long and while I had some attendings who would be right there with us in the trenches getting the day’s work done, I had others who would disappear […]

Launching A New Life

How incredible is it that I’ve already been living in Atlanta for well over a month now?? It’s hard to believe that not too long ago, my wife and I packed all of our belongings and hauled ourselves down here from North Carolina to start our new lives. So much has happened between the time […]
