9 Months 'Til Graduation --> A Bucket List

Hello!

It's hard to believe, but I'm already in my second month of fourth year, which means less than 9 months until GRADUATION! Now begins the process of applying to residency, waiting to hear back from schools, and traveling around the country to interview at various pediatric programs. As excited as I am, it hit me that this will be our last 9 months living in Albany - and potentially on the east coast. Come March 21st, we will know where we'll be moving for the next three years.

We spent some time reminiscing about the many adventures we've had over the past three years, and realized there are still many things we haven't done yet. So, my hubby and I sat down and started brainstorming an "Albany Bucket List" of things we want to do, food we want to eat, and places we want to visit in the Albany (and surrounding) area.

And now, a few pictures from our favorite adventures over the past three years...
