Every year, the second-year medical students help put together a Wine Auction in order to raise money for our student-run clinics. Co-directors from the various clinics come together to co-chair the various committees. Last year, I volunteered with the Decorations committee and so this year became one of the Co-chairs for Decorations! Our theme was Casino Royale, and we came up with a bunch of ideas to turn our building into the swankiest casino ever. This year we had the misfortune of not being able to borrow items from the main campus, so we literally had to assemble decorations ourselves, come up with creative ways to save money, and purchase whatever else we could not find. And it turned out great! The place really looked amazing and we got so many compliments. Hopefully, we were able to raise a lot of money for the clinics.
And although it was a lot of fun, I am so glad the event is over. Most of my commitments are wrapping up, since it's getting close to crunch-time for boards studying. In fact, I had my last clinic shift in December. It's so odd to have my weekends off (for now), and though I am thankful for the extra time, I also miss going there.
