post more, kyle!

well honestly i'm really glad that you are finding hospital volunteer work such a meaningful and enriching experience. it definitely isn't my bag, i prefer teaching somehow, i'm not that gd at talking w ppl i think.

a doctor's life is very tough, and the stakes are so high. and somehow i dont think researching is the same as dealing with patients etc...but i'm not sure that's just my guess (;
