Pediatrics
I liked pediatrics. This seems to surprise many of my friends, but not having children doesn't mean that I don't like children. This rotation was fun and frustrating, as at times I was seeing an entire family at one time. I saw newborns and 18 year olds and everything in between. I got close to memorizing vaccination schedules, milestones, and most importantly learned over and over what normal is. Having this rotation in August led me to do so many sports physicals. Oh, so many. Pediatrics has its seasons and I am glad I got sport physical season and not flu season. Kids are fun and their parents aren't (typically) but I was surprised how much I liked interacting with the kids, joking with them, comforting them. Unfortunately the office I was in didn't have anyone else in it so I spent 20 minutes examining patients, making them feel like the pediatrician office is cool and safe, only to return 5 minutes later and jab them in the leg....
