Thoughts

Pumpkins will rot after a week outside.

I wish I had seat heaters in my car.

One can never have enough socks.

I'm a bad listener.

I'm a demi lovato fan girl.

Dissecting a penis is not as fun as it sounds.

I don't want to be a pediatrician.

Today I went to hear Eva Kor, a holocaust survivor of the medical experiments done on twins. I cried twice, and the rest of the time I was trying to not cry... She told a horrifying but important story that stressed the importance of medical ethics. It is hard to remain humane sometimes, especially in anatomy lab.. it was well worth the hour away from studying to listen.

And it made me think of my family... :) I miss everyone!!!

Hayy Pumpkin

Happy Halloween everyone! Mine is the pumpkin on the right :D

Nothing like fresh roasted pumpkin seeds.

I was a fox.. not a squirrel!!

Haven't really been in the mood to blog.. this month has been pretty rough.. mentally and emotionally, I'm really hoping this next round of tests does not kill me. Also I've been sick with SOMETHING for the past 2 weeks now.. I've forgotten what it is like to not cough or have a runny nose. Even shopping has not given me any joy.. what is going on?!

Pleats and Ruffles Please

Yesterday we (houston/san an) had beautiful weather apparently, according to facebook anyway. I wouldn't know because I was cooped up inside studying all day (with a break to paint my nails) Finally I couldn't take it anymore and had to drag myself out of my pj's and actually try to look decent for the general public :) I've been super excited to wear my pink ruffle skirt I got from modcloth as of recent and I couldn't think of a better place to wear it than a CUPCAKE shop!! I've been meaning to check out Gourmet Cupcakes in San An so I ventured out and felt sunlight for the first time in awhile :D Need more Vitamin D!!

Shades: Tory Burch

Tank: Loft

Skirt: Modcloth

Necklace: UO

I keep wanting to touch it when I wear it, and twirl once or twice..

ahhhmazing Yeah that's right I could eat all 12

My nails cheer me up while I study.. They match my highlighters, but also make me look like I have jaundice hehe

Oh what med school does to you... I was doing the dishes earlier and looking at the Dawn dishwashing soap and giggled to myself thinking.. ahh DAWN of NEUTROPHILIA! which led to golgi apparatus which then led to a string of histo junk that I have to memorize...

Hello World

I'm going to blog because I want to and I don't care that I have 6 tests coming up or that I have a quiz tomorrow... Sometimes I don't even know what I'm learning anymore, like the days everything just seem to blur together. Today I woke up and conjugated verbs for my medical spanish course and thought to myself... HOW CAN I LEARN ANOTHER LANGUAGE when I have a million other things to memorize :( Not only that but I've learned I cannot roll my r's or wink my right eye for the life of me.

Also I've joined a million clubs and volunteered for a million different events, one of which requires me to play with preemie babies...

This week I joined APAMSA, which I had no idea what it stood for (Asian Pacific American Medical Student Association..? I'm guessing...) I just knew they were serving free lunch which was not lenny's or pizza... I scored a tofu banh mi.

I am more dedicated to my dermatology interest group and Physicians for Human Rights group, which I blog for now. I'll link it someday when I get around to it.

This week I also interviewed for a Global Health Trip. I might be going to Guatemala for 3 weeks this summer!!!!!!! AND THEN thanks to my shower curtain I realized just how close in proximity it was to Mexico... hmmmmmm But nonetheless It will be a great way to implement all this spanish I'm learning and help at their clinic as well as the orphanage. *crosses fingers*

These are pics from last week. I've been into crop tops and eccentrically placed pockets. The only thing with crop tops is I feel like I need a 6-pack.. or at least a flatter stomach. I don't know how that is going to happen since I eat so much crap and drink so much soda to keep myself awake to study. I've been doing zumba regularly every wednesday and friday, but I'm starting to think I need to spice it up with something else.

Back to memorizing a bajillion pathogens BAIZ

UH Love?

We are taking a break in physio class so I decided to post up some things I'm in love with right now. I have probably 3 maxi dresses and they are the most comfortable, most girly things in my closet. I tend to dislike the jersey materials of most maxi and I don't like the striped ones that take over your body. I try to stick with chiffon materials for maxis.

Ark & Co

I love the neckline and print of the first maxi. It was also on modcloth but it was sold out.

Olive + Olivia

I have to have this polka dot maxi... <3

Modcloth

One of Those Days

I savor the 5 minute drive to school where I can sing my heart out in the car while people stare through their windows.

Epic VLOG

Thanks to my good friend KHANG!!! I am posting up my first video log! I've been meaning to do this for awhile but my place has always been too messy and I haven't had time since school started. I woke up this morning and cleaned hardcore for almost 4 hours... I hope you guys enjoy.. you finally know how I've been living for the past 6 weeks :)

I know my voice is really annoying on camera right?!

I forgot to show you guys my drawers on video so I took some pictures, this is the left side... lots of candies... essential for studying.

The right drawer.. I LOVE all office supplies as you can see. :D

Anyway I took a picture of my outfit from yesterday, but I decided against posting it cause after I got home I looked crazy. I went out for reverse happy hour and then to a classmate's birthday party. I finally got to wear heels even though I was the only one.. who cares! Reverse happy hour was pretty terrible, and one spilled drink later I was ready to go home.
