You know you are a WHO intern when... part i


  • you step onto the elevator and you have no idea what language the person speaks next to you will speak.
  • the halls are lined with hundreds of publications about everything you could imagine in the health world.
  • all you can think about is how great it will be when you're a big fancy public health professional and you can get your own Lancet subscription (having access through a university isn't good enough. I want that sucker to have my name on it and be delivered to my house where I can read it cover to cover like a YA vampire novel. A girl can dream). For now you just drool over the online pdfs and wish you had time to read all the articles.
  • someone jokingly asks you how the who is (not the W.H.O.) and someone in the room says, "you saw The Who?! When? Where?"
  • the bus becomes your best friend.
  • you eat sausages in baguettes to represent hot dogs in buns for the 4th of July.

I am having trouble imagining you eating a sausage in a baguette. Did you just close your eyes and chomp? Now I would do that, but the daughter of my husband...not so much.
You should make up some joke about Doctor Who, you're clever.
Who knew Lancet was so coveted?
