PhOeNiX

Well interview season has officially started and we kicked it off in phoenix with Kev's family. His sister and her family were AwESomE and let us stay with them for a few days. This made it easier on us -AKA free AND tons of fun. But it was also much more fun for Kevin while I was gone at the interview he had someone cool to hang out with. So he went shopping with his sis, swimming with the nieces and nephews, and became shockingly proficient at Guitar Hero. My first interview was at Maricopa county. I had never been to a "county" hospital before. I didn't know that county meant ghetto. It was kinda cool though because the residents all get to do tons of cool procedures. Also, I got to see tons of the famous maricopa prisoners with their striped jumpsuits and pink underwear (the ones that live in the tent city). Anyway that was pretty sweet. Here's a picture of me flashing what I think might be a gang sign outside of Maricopa, Yo.





The next interview was at St. Josephs in Phoenix. It was significantly more posh. They had a concierge for the residents and vallet parking at the hospital. They also had subsidised housing for the residents right next to the hospital. Either one would be great because we'd be close to Kev's sis and my extended family. We would love to live near his sis because 1) she is super cool, 2) her family is super cool, 3) she has a swimming pool and guitar hero - I'm not gonna lie those are our priorities.






Here are some pictures of Kev's sis's be-otchin crib. (just practicing the lingo in case I end up at maricopa). Yes that is a signature Kevin meal of Ribs, corn, scewers and probably 5 different desserts. What you may not have noticed is the pool with the waterfall and slide AND hottub in the background.





One of my UBER-cute nieces checking to see if I am cleared for surgery (note the play scalpel in her right hand).

Oh good luck with interviewing. Love the suit look by the way. I still need one of those. Oh and I am glad you have your priorities straight as far as where to move...a pool should be way up there with cool people. Seriously good luck though!

Don't make me sad about you moving away. I am secretly praying for a match in good ol' SLC! (Although really I want you to go to the best program!!!) We'll just have to come and visit!
