Only in Orlando will people pay $20 to stand in 9 degree weather and look at ice (at Gaylord's palace of Ice sculptures)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Only in Orlando the Animal control people will not pick up wild animals and you have to call a private company and PAY for dangerous wild animals to be removed. Isn't that what Animal control suppose to do? Hello, what about alligators? You mean I have to pay to get some alligator off my sidewalk?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Only in Orlando do you need a map to find your way out of a shopping center parking lot. Who designed these parking lots?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Only in Orlando will the third lane of a highway become an exit with no street signs and no warning and all of a sudden you are trapped on some no named street driving around a lake that popped out of no where with no end in sight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.

What about Gray's anatomy?" Residency is more like Scrubs. It doesn't matter if you are a surgical resident or a pediatric resident, like myself. During your first year (intern year) you are a scrub. Bottom of the ladder. Low man on the totem pole. And life is just as dramatic as ER and as comical as Scrubs. If you don't laugh you cry, if you don't cry you scream and if you don't scream you internalize and go crazy. Bottom line- you have to get it out somehow, some way. I prefer the first two. And so this has become my life. A string of sleepless call nights sprinkled with life altering events, funny stories, pain, fatigue, fustration, joy, hope, insanity and sanity. At the end of these 3 years I will have the knowledge and confidence to do this thing called being a physician all on my own. It is a scary, incredible and amazing thought that in less than 3 years a dream that took 20+ years in preparation will finally come true.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19289254-113288438630501228?l=shandijoy.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shandijoy.blogspot.com/feeds/113288438630501228/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19289254&amp;postID=113288438630501228' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19289254/posts/default/113288438630501228'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19289254/posts/default/113288438630501228'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shandijoy.blogspot.com/2005/11/year-one.html' title='Year one'/><author><name>Shandi J.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16829823020435191999</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
