Whether you are a friend trying to keep track of my busy life, or a person randomly connected to me via the web, I hope this blog makes you smile, wrinkle your brow, and maybe come away with a new idea or perspective on the world

was watching Angel on netflix, and in this one scene you can see a guy holding a camera!!  I wonder if it was actually aired like that.

Jason Walker - Down

I shot for the sky, I’m stuck on the ground.
so why do i try, I know I’m gonna fall down.
I thought I could fly, so why did I drown.

saddest movie i’ve seen in a while. like “a walk to remember” but better made, i’m not a big fan of mandy moore.

I suppose these are some pretty random thoughts

I need more consistency in my life. I feel like there’s nothing really constant in my life, everything is always changing.. relationships, plans, thoughts, interests, routines.. It’s not that I don’t embrace change, I would just prefer it if some things would stay the same for a little while.

I hope I get all my apps by the end of March. My list of schools keep growing… My list in the order of preference:

USC - MS in pathology (CA)
NYMC - MS in pathology (NY)
University of Rochester - MS in immunology (NY)
Case Western - MS in physiology (OH)
Mt. Sinai - MS in biomedical (NY)
Tufts - MS in biomedical (MA)
Boston University - MA in biomedical (MA)
UCR - MS in biochemistry (CA)

chances are I’ll be moving to the east coast! or the midwest.. I dont really fancy the idea of living in Ohio. I heard it’s really cold there, I’m sure Sitka would enjoy it though. I mean why wouldn’t I bring my 100 lb husky with me to graduate school to live in a tiny apartment.

I’m still contemplating the idea of retaking the GRE. Everyone i’ve talked to says that I dont need to. But then why can’t i let it go? If i cant stop thinking about it, I might as well just do it, I mean it wont really hurt, unless I do worse than before.

My plans for the summer are coming together. Thank the Lord. I was getting so miserable not having anything set in stone. I was going crazy not knowing what my next steps are. I think i’ll be traveling a lot this summer, which i’m looking forward to.

now till august:

Yosemite Trip: April 2-4
PhiDE chartering: April 17th (yay!)
GRE?? : April 19th
Graduation: May 8th (I’m thinking about skipping it..havent made up my mind yet.)
EMT course: May 24-June 16
Random trip to Europe sometime in April or May
Trip to China sometime in… April or July, depending if i skip graudation..
Sammie’s Wedding: June 25-27th (road trip to Colorado!)
Ronald Mcdonald Camp: July 9-18th
August - PREPARE FOR SCHOOL! (hopefully, crossing my fingers)

I think this Yosemite trip’s going to be fun and interesting. There’s 8 of us now, a lot of girls, a lot of estrogen! It’s going to be more difficult now hiding the fact that we have 8 people staying in a 2 person cabin with 3 cars. I hope we’ll all get along, and not end up breaking up into small cliques, i hate that. I’m not a fan of awkward tension. I guess it all just depends on the people, but I can already see the possibilities in cliques. Anyways, I hope it’ll be super fun, I did a bunch of research on the different hikes we can take, I guess there’s still snow up there in some areas, and glacier point is closed, which sucks because I love the hike to taft point! I hope it’ll not be anything like the Joshua tree trip, that was a disaster.

I’m not a fan of Friday nights unless I’m doing something, or studying which is fine with me.  I should blog more often, it can be the only consistent thing in my life.

An entry from my old xanga (so SAD!)

Sunday, February 26, 2006

thank you

If the is a end to everything, then this would be our end. Its sometimes so hard to comprehend the meaning of our existence, that i find my mind boggling in different directions ready to explode. In chapel the other day, Jamie, our campus pastor was talking about relationships. She said that if we are in a relationships that we know we are not suppose to be in, we should find the strength to walk away. This question kept me awake at night as i was trying to sleep. I remember staring into the darkness for a long time, trying to decide wheter i am with you for the wrong reasons. What started out as the beginning of a wonderful story turned out to have such a disasterous turn. sometimes…when im dazing off into space, i think of times when i use to be really happy, and all goofy things i use to do…then it hit me thatt….i have driven into an enormous pot hole. my journey to wonderland stops here. I sit on the side of the road with a flat tiree and a broken spirit awaiting for someone to give me a helping hand.

i know it is NOT a good sign when i can look at myself and shake my head in disapproval. it is not a good sign when i feel disgusted thinking about the things i have done. when i ask the question.. how do you know when its time to let go… the most common answer is “you’ll just know.” how do i just know?? if i dont know that does it mean that its not the time? i find myself smiling at the thought of being free and happy. I am a slave to my own emotions. i must break freeeeeee, i need to.

thats how i know its the end.

“feelings are finite, and all things finite are not invincible. good.”
