I am annoyed because I accidentally deleted the folder in my Bloglines containing all of the design blogs I subscribe to. I wanted to see if I could just delete the folder but not any of the feeds inside it, but that backfired. Isn’t the CANCEL button usually the blue one? Ugh, the dangers of [...]

Wendy: Peter Pan! Oh, Peter, I knew you’d come back! I saved your shadow for you. Oh I do hope it isn’t rumpled. You know, you look exactly the way I thought you would. Oh, a litter taller perhaps. But then… (laughing) You can’t stick it on with soap, Peter. It needs sewing. That’s the [...]

Forgot to update that I was ultimately rejected from EMRA. While they “highly encourage re-applicants”, I will not be trying for the third time because I have nothing else to give. I did my best. Maybe in a year, if I’ve gained some more clinical experience and have raised my GPA. Let’s all hope so.
This [...]
so familiar a gleam

Took a “nap” around 5:30pm and I just woke up. Sadly, this does not affect my life whatsoever. Part of me kinda feels like going out (whatever that may be) and then I’m thinking, what better way to spend Friday night than in my sweats watching Sleeping Beauty online? I find that as long as [...]

I am not a person who can happily idle for long periods of time. I can, and do, easily waste hours away, but months at a time of non-activity will literally bore me to tears. So, I’ve learned to fill my summers with work and education, which lead me to become a receptionist for a [...]

New phrase I learned today from the lovely I Love Dick. I’ve only read 4 pages so far. Reminds me of White Oleander; maybe all books set in Los Angeles have to have that devestatingly empty feel.
As my MCAT test date creeps closer, I’m starting see the tip of the iceberg and fathom what lies [...]
“work, stress, insominia & my lover leaving me”

I took a little vacation to the library during my between-class break today. I say vacation because it’s just so soothing to be inside Powell. Always dim and cool inside, red tiles lining the floor and staircase until you reach the grand windows and beautiful tangram ceiling. And the books. You can’t feel it on [...]
keep calm and carry on

This is becoming more of a relationship blog than a life blog but whatever. You don’t have to read it!
Had a little fight via AIM/text/phone this evening. Basically came down to why-don’t-you-think-I’m-as-awesome-as-everybody-else-does-when-I-think-you’re-more-awesome-than-everybody-else-does. I think it comes to some fundamental differences in thinking. I can’t imagine someone who dislikes so much of me to still love [...]
lazy sunday

Hopefully today will not me purely lazy, since I devoted all of Saturday to that already. Relaxing yet productive sounds good.
Went out for a party for the first time since Halloween 2007 on Friday night. Must admit, I had a pretty good time. I played the most epic game of beer pong ever and had [...]
second impressions

Yesterday, I applied for the second time to this hospital volunteering program. They have recruitment every few months and accept 4-6 people at a time. Usually there’s at least 40 people lining the corridor of the hospital dressed in their most professional wear, waiting up to two and a half hours for their name to [...]
