| | I can't wait 'til I do rotations. I can't wait til I get to interact with patients for real and apply the stuff I learned into a hospital setting. ...well you also have to keep in mind that my block exams are this coming Monday. So...I guess you can say that I am dealing with my anxiety with the 'anticipation' defense mechanism--I'm dealing with the anxiety of studying and all of that by thinking about what's ahead.

| Over the years, I've come to really take a liking to just raw performances--you know..with just vocals, guitar, and a couple of other acoustic instruments or something. Or just vocal + piano or vocal + guitar. There's something about these kinds of performances that are just....I guess easier for the soul to resonate with?
I don't know--some of these 'late night' posts tend not to make sense.
And oh. I love Simon and Garfunkel. Oddly enough, I got into this band cuz SG Wanna Be was named after them (kudos to wikipedia for the info!). Simon & Garfunkel Wanne Be. Get it? ..okay that was lame. kind of.
But yeah. Music = expression of the soul. So music that doesn't express the soul...I guess you can call that...noise. lol
Yeah yeah. Bring on the hate. | | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment |
| movie script: I can't feel my leg....
me: Yo Tyger (roomie). If her anterior compartment of her leg lost sensation, what nerves were damaged?
...yeah. I'm still spewing this kinda stuff even WHILE on break. Sigh? NAH. :D | | comments: Leave a comment |
| I guess this is for just memory-sake...cuz sometimes I just like to browse through old entries and picture a slice of my life at the exact moment I wrote my entry? Yeah. If that makes any sense...
Anyway. So at this exact moment, I am studying for Block 2 exams. Going to finish the questions from UMich's anatomy site very soon, and then going to review pathways, cytoskeleton stuff, blahblahblah.
I know for a fact that it feels exhilarating after an awesome workout. Be sore as hell, be unable to move, and still..feel all WHEEEE and stuff. This, of course happens once you get used to working out. Endorphins ftw. But I wonder...if that same thing applies to being brain-dead. Basically..what would happen once I get used to being brain-dead? Would I feel WHEEEEEE?
...maybe. I've been feeling brain-dead every night after studying. Is that a bad thing? Nope. Feeling brain-dead after a day of studying would just make me feel that I studied hard a good amount that day.
Hm..good mental workout = studying hard = endorphins = getting endorphins? DOWN. | | comments: Leave a comment |

| Yes, this man deserves his own post. Even John Mayer would agree..if he blogged. But anyway, back to what I wanted to say...
There's something about acoustic Eric Clapton recordings and a peaceful night that just meshes so well together. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| | I'm finding myself loving this game more and more--from playing pick up games to 3v3's to just practicing alone at 2 AM to...watching the NBA. And at this point in my life, I'd choose playing basketball over kendo. Is that a problem? Nah... | | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment |
| ...and this entry has little to nothing to do with this brightly lit city that I am at right now with my brother, mom and dad...other than this: DAMN sometimes I wish I knew a little bit of Mandarin Chinese. Ah well.
..but anyway, the other day, I said to my friend, Matt Mikuni, whom I've totally failed to meet up with in Korea, "man, the next time I'm gonna see you is a couple of years down the line." And coming to think of it, that's gonna be the harsh reality for a good number of my friends too. My childhood friend Phil? The next time I'll be able to see him would be...when he comes back from Korea a year from now? Eh that isn't bad...but some of my college friends? Probably once a year, if not once every two. Whole point is, as obvious as this sounds, as I am getting older and moving onto the next stage in my life, the people I've once shared a chapter of my life with are now going to play a more faded role. Don't get me wrong, though. With those good friends, I'll be talk just from where we left off, as if we never parted ways.
I guess it's just...this reality is just a bit bittersweet. | | comments: Leave a comment |
| | Now I'm getting what the med students mean by...not feeling like you're ready for an exam, even when you study like crazy on a daily basis. Yeah, I haven't focused on some subjects as much as I should have, but right now, I'm feeling like I have so much bloody studying to do for anatomy, and not enough time. Damnit. Well, whatever. Gotta do with what I have. | | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment |
| I'm never going to forget this bday. Maybe it's because it's my first time having it outside of the U.S. I don't know. No, I didn't get shitfaced. No, I didn't really go anywhere special. I just did the same ol' stuff today--went to class at 8, studied til class started again at 5:30, came home. But in the midst of it all, I got the customary spam-til-kingdom-come bday msges on FB, got shout outs from people via other means on the intArweb, got pretty much embarrassed TWICE (once on the bus with everyone singing "Happy B-day", once in the dorm kitchen (same reason). And THEN...got the best freakin' meal I could ever ask for from Soo-young-nuna--미역국!!! Seriously gave me the sweet taste of home *_*;. I can't thank her enough.. Oh yeah--the people in my dorm building at 10 PM then commenced to stuff my face and Rob's face with rum cake. We um....had a quarter of the cake stuffed in our faces. And freakin' Rob's brother capped it by smashin' the cake in our face...or tried to until he tripped. LOL
Either way, I feel so incredibly loved, and just... thankful beyond words. | | comments: Leave a comment |
