Allergy: frustrating

So allergy rotation is 2 weeker.  And to be honest, its hard to focus on it. The doctor doesn't even see his own patients- he has his nurse practioner do it. Which is totally fine, she is very competant and has been working with him for 15+ years.  She knows what to do and what he would do.  But it makes it so boring for me.  I don't even see patients by myself I just shadow silently. It bores me to tears I actually bring my LAPTOP to work and in between patients have begun reading kindle books.  If you are a preceptor who is somehow reading this, let the students at least THINK they are helping or doing something. It is so hard to have gone over a year doing things, at least training to form opinions or learn things, to go back to being silent in the corner.  I'm no longer satisfied with just being there, I want to engage.

Anyhow, sorry no pictures unless you want endless rashes....  which i don't care enough to even take pictures.  I suppose it also doesn't help that i have serious romantic troubles and also maybe if i learn something rather than staring at walls, i will post more.
