Intern bonding (blocktime and Rocky's party)

Some quick sharing of pics (some of which I stole from Brenden, our designated event photographer) from the last week of block time, which I am sad to see come to an end (stay tuned for a future post on the past AWESOME weekend of Tahoe skiing)...

Party @ Rocky's mansion in Fair Oaks!

Rocky, one of my classmates, was homeless until approx. 2 months ago when she and her husband John finally found a house that they liked and moved into it. Here are some pics from a potluck/game party we had on Thursday! This house is awesome, by the way-- it reminds me of the game of 'Clue' with a ballroom, library, etc..., and has tons of character with PINK all around, as well as beautiful landscaping of a rose garden and bamboo forest. Wish you could see it in person!

Phi, Brenden, and Amy enjoying Jeremy's hit Lava cake (I unfortunately decided to wait until after Easter to enjoy desserts but luckily now have the recipe)

I love this pic of Mahsheed and Fahtima (Adeel and Fizzah's little girl)

THEN THE GAMES

I introduced the group to Time's Up, which I purchased at a game store in Berkeley about a month or so ago. It was a hit-- hilarious as always. I was impressed at how fact these doctors caught on!

I had a great time during intern bonding Blocktime#2, with normal schedules and weekends off. The end-of-nice-month blues is starting to set in, despite an awesome past weekend in Tahoe. I start on L and D in the a.m. and don't have a day off until March 15th, but at least that's when Vanessa will be here so at least I have something to look fwd to!
