she pisses me off so much...
i am at my place right now, and just got off the phone, with her whining that i'm keeping her from sleeping right now by not being there. i have 2 full days slotted for hardcore studying for my exam on friday, with barely enough time to take showers and eat. and im keeping her from sleeping cuz i got back just now from studying at the library and wanna take a shower.
fuck.

Tell her no.
I know what you are going through, been there done that and got the cadaver juice soaked scrubs (god I hated that smell).
You can't let her ruin this for you, and I have to wonder if thats part of her motivation, misery does love company. I'm not saying she really WANTS you to fail, but there is most likely some resentment that you could do so easily which she can not accomplish.
You are going to need to just say no, I sorry I can't be there, see you this weekend. If she can't handle that then you will have more issues than just this if you end up married.
Wait till you do your residency, and then god help you if you specialize in something time consuming.
