I'm finally settled into my new cozy apartment in Albany, Georgia.  I left Houston at 11pm and arrived around noon, so approx. 13 hour drive more or less.  The nice public hospital in Albany, Pheobe-Putney, is only a block away.  I was also surprised to hear that the hospital will be footing the bill on my apartment for the short 6 week internship.  Pretty darn cool!  All in all, I'm happy with what I have seen from the city of about 70,000 people.  Everyone I've met has been really nice and welcoming as well. I've been to the movie theater twice, once for District 9, and once for the G.I. Joe movie.  The walmart and mall are also nearby, making it easy to find things to buy.  I haven't tried any local restaurants yet, just because I figured I would be eating out more frequently once the work begins.  I hear there is some killer BBQ (pork of course) and a couple notable pizza places!  Yum!
 
So tomorrow I start my first clinical rotation, which will be Family Medicine.  As some of you know, earlier this year I did 4 weeks in a family practice internship and really liked it!  So far it is my top choice for residency, but who knows what will come in the next 72 weeks.  After my 6 weeks here in Albany, I will be driving 3 hours North to Atlanta, where I will be for about 5 months.  After that, who knows.  I'll try to update more as I find out.
