Honestly, to me the field seems fascinating, saving lives.
Of course, I speak from a pre-med student's perspective.

cause i hate rounding and i like to work as little as possible and make as much money as possible, but still like to make an impact on people's lives and every once in a while stomp out some disease.

I like spending more time with patients more than with doctors/lab results. Also, the more new patients you're seeing in a day, the greater the chance some of them will be interesting. Finally, I think it will be much easier for me to keep my appropriate, healthy emotional distance when the doctor-patient relationships are so brief.
Somewhere in 3rd year, I realized I'd rather drive a truck cross country than do any other specialty.
Sort of on the same train of thought (well, not really, I just didn't want to start a new thread), do you (residents/attendings) ever feel nostalgic about medical school? Do you ever sit there and say, "Man, I miss the good ole days back when I was a med student"?
No. At least, not the actual med studenting part.

Were there any reasons you wanted to go into EM that were not fulfilled when you actually entered the specialty?
anyone have any idea why Panda Bear is now 8744?Because I have no real skills or talents and dislike almost every other specialty to which I was exposed in third and fourth year.
