Sob Stories

Sometimes I make up sob stories. These are true stories but they didn't really make me sob that much. I share the story maybe with a little touch of drama. For example, we have a Family Medicine rotation. To stay in Indianapolis you need to write a letter. I wrote one saying that my house got burglarized recently and I am "afraid" that if I leave for a month, I will get burglarized again. I got an Indianapolis spot! I'm not really afraid to be burglarized again. Maybe I should really be. So maybe my sob story is justified.
