I realized recently that, even though I plan to go to med school, I have no plan for what I do between college and med school, which is really a more immediate, pressing issue. It's pressing because apps for some fellowships are due pretty soon (as in the end of the summer) and take a long time to prepare. Being me, this realization came with ( Read more... )

Is it just me or are the republican front-runners a lot less attractive (physically) than the democratic ones? Think about it...Hillary, Obama, Edwards vs. Romney, Huckabee, McCain.

I liked this blogger's 10 ten list until she endorsed Rilo Kiley's Under the Blacklight. I know I have ranted about this before, but I still consider this album the biggest musical disappointment of 2007.

There was an article in the Seattle Times that (exboyfriend) Scott told me about that discusses online candidate match quizzes. For ( Read more... )

I now have a little over three pages of text for my 20 page endocrinology paper, and I already have 15 references. Endnote, how did I ever live without you?

Harwood Halloween was amazingly awesome this year. Ted Leo and the Pharmicists were really fantastic, but what I appreciated most about them was that they were so upbeat and good for dancing.

The other two chem majors who applied also got in, which is awesome because I'll definitely need some people to work on pchem with. Word on the street is that it's easier than first semester pchem at ( Read more... )

The concert last Thursday night was awesome. The driving to Hollywood and paying $15 for parking was not so awesome, but Beirut was a lot of fun. There were two opening acts, the first of which (Alaska in Winter) was fairly awful, but we only were there for his last song. The next artist was Colleen, who played a crazy seven-stringed viol/cello- ( Read more... )

During lunch after my pchem test last week, I was lamenting my failure and Kush asked me if I thought I got over or under 70%. He offered a bet, saying that he'd give me five bucks if I scored under 70%. I didn't feel entirely comfortable taking that bet, I guess because I was trying to be at least somewhat optimistic about the situation ( Read more... )
