I landed my internship
In February I'll become a real-life version of the character J.D. in Scrubs, at a hospital on the west coast of Sweden.

I'll have to move from Stockholm but geographically it's great - it's on the very coast that I've spent all of my childhood summers (I'm in love with its coastal nature), it's not that far from the family's summer cabin and not too far from the rather big city of Gothenburg either (something which a genuine city-dweller like me knows to appreciate )

That's great, Jonathan!

So it's not in Gothenburg, then?

Thank you both

Nah, it's in Uddevalla a few miles north.

Cool. I know where that is.
We've driven past it, sightseeing in Västra Götaland / Dalsland (which is mainly even a bit further north). Nice area.

Yay! Congrats!
So if I've got any ailments I can bombard you with questions. Good to know
What are you specialising in by the way?

To which I might reply: "Take one of these pills when you go to bed at night and another one if you wake up in the morning."

I'm not specialising in anything yet. This is all part of a kind of mandatory "general practice" that one must do first. It involves a bit of general and internal medicine, some surgery and some psychiatry.

Trying very hard to imagine that, and not doing very well, so I'll limit myself to Congratulations.

Yeah congrats Jonathan! Even though I know what you look like, I'm picturing JD-Jonathan as Cloud instead. That's a little funnier.

Yea, add my congrats.

Do they do that insane internship-as-ordeal/initiation thing, with the impossibly long hours and intense pressure?

Congratulations Mari! That's great news! Do you have a car ready, to go with the license?

Yeah, well, it's not really a hard-kept secret that they leave most of the work at the emergency ward to the interns

Thanks for the congrats, all

*snort* I won't have enough money for at least the first 2, 3 years to come for buying and maintaining my own car. But while I still live with my parents, I can borrow my dad's car.

Or rather by sending some of the interns way up north, like Kiruna - or worse?

- And Mari - congratulations!

That's exactly what they do in Norway, I've heard. At least I got to choose which places to apply for
