So after I'm finished with my thesis this summer, I'll have about five weeks of down time in Montana, which will be awesome. Actually, being that I'll probably take the MCAT on July 24th, I'll have a little more than four weeks of actual down time ( Read more... )

I wrote this about a year ago for my creative writing class. It could use some work, but I kinda like it, so I thought I'd post it here:

An evening runner.

step step step step

He runs, bathed in sunset red 
while his footsteps lightly fall.

I'm currently buried in lab notebooks that should have already been done. Eh. Bible study was really awesome tonight. I'm excited to have four other Christian guys to do stuff like that with. I'm also trying to shadow a doctor. Most of them have made up an excuse about their lawyers or HIPAA. I did find an immunologist who said I could shadow him, ( Read more... )

I'm in Seattle with David! So that's exciting. We're staying with his friend, who is the proud owner of the tripiest game I have ever seen.

I've been reading a lot over break. I've knocked off quite a bit of The Count of Monte Cristo, but it gets awfully slow at times. I ( Read more... )

I'm done with finals, but I really don't feel very good about them. I love everything I learned, but it was really hard to take it all at once. I knew I was going out on a limb with these courses, but I guess I'll see how the grades come out ( Read more... )

I have forgotten anything I ever learned about the above word.

The life, death, and resurrection of Jesus were amazing. He really does stand out in history like the "gleaming tip of the spear," as CS Lewis said. Even on the day of his resurrection men tried to suppress the truth of his victory over all of men's shortcomings. The Pharisees spread a lie that his body had been stolen ( Read more... )
