Pics coming soon

I'm going to put pics of my condo up soon. Watch out for them. :)

I'm supposed to be getting my sofa tomorrow.. yayyy. No more sitting on the carpet against the wall hahaha. Actually, my living room still sort of looks like I haven't moved in all the way yet since its strewn with cushions and my rug is rolled up in a corner and my coffee table is in another corner and I have boxes in front of my fireplace and I have two posters that I'm debating if I want to put up. I don't know what to do with those boxes bc I don't have space for them inside, outside storage is kind of yucky, and I don't want to throw them away haha.

My bedroom on the other hand is fine. My desk is a little messy, and I have jeans piled up on my work chair haha, so I need to clean all of that up. My bathroom is okay too, except I need to clean it before taking any pics haha. There's dust everywhere bc I didn't really clean it after coming back from summer break. Other than that, its not that messy. I just wish my bathroom counter was bigger. I love big counter sinks like in my bathroom at home. I think I was spoiled by it...

Ok yea, time for me to go to class, but I just wanted to say pics are coming soon--after my sofa is delivered and after I clean up a little.

Until the next one then.

No Motivation

Ughhhhhhhhhhh. I can't seem to sit down long enough to listen to more than one lecture. The plan for this weekend was to listen to 3 lectures, go over notes, and do the reading for them. So far, I've only listened to one lecture and its already 4pm. Soooo mad at myself. At least on Monday and Tuesday, I don't really have class except for PBL so I have two more days to catch up. I guess that works out.

Anyways, yesterday, I didn't do anything at ALL. First of all, I woke up really late (at 2pm) so half the day was gone as it was. Then when I should have been studying, I didn't. All I did was be on the computer organizing my crap, which I sooo could have and should have done at some other time. Ehh oh well.

Then when I realized I did nothing all day, I gave up on studying for the day, and I watched the movie Aa Dekhen Zara. The movie was alright as a storyline. I don't know which Hollywood movie they copied  got their inspiration from though. I feel like I've heard of something like this movie. Basically its about a guy who inherits a camera from his grandfather that takes pictures of the future. The plot was alright, not too bad, kind of predictable, but its Bollywood. I've seen enough where I can pretty much predict what's going on. Anyhoo, Bipasha is in it :) hahaha. There's this one song called "Gazab" from the movie.. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N26eh1Aka3w) woahhh she looks hot. And I like the song too. For some reason, on youtube, the song sounds different. The guy's name is Neil Nitin Mukesh, and he's aiite as an actor, but I don't think he can dance. They were crafty with the cinematography where you couldn't really tell. Anyways, that's my "review." Okay movie. Bipasha looked hot. The guy was okay. The ending was kind of stupid. It should have ended differently, but how it should have ended, I don't know.

Anyways, songs I that I like at the moment:
-Gazab - Aa Dekhen Zara
-Aa Dekhen Zara (Lounge) - Aa Dekhen Zara - i like the music. There's a more dancy/techno-y version called Aa Dekhen Zara.
-Twist - Love Aaj Kal - brand new song (the movie isn't even out yet)... it has Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone (the actress from Om Shanti Om)
-Ishq ka Kalma - Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal (or just Goal for short) - looove this song. Kind of old. They say "make my baby stay" NOT "i think my baby's gay." Watch the video on youtube... john abraham <3
-If I'm naming older songs, i dunno if you've heard it but Dhoom Tana from Om Shanti Om.

I'm still listening to new songs from the movies Kambakkht Ishq, Kaminey, Luck, Love Aaj Kal, Kisaan, New York, and Short Kut, and deciding if they're worthy or not. Yeaaa, I just got a whole bunch of new music... I think the Bollywood industry was on some sort of hiatus, not sure about the details, but these are all movies I'm going to watch... as soon as I watch Ghajini, Billu Barber, Luck by Chance, and one more that I don't remember.

Ok, now I think I took enough of a break. I think I'm going to work out, take a shower, eat food, then listen to one more lecture before bed. I have class at 8 tomorrow... BOOOOOO.

Until the next one.

Old Lady

I can no longer stay up and hang out anymore. I'm sooooooooo tired by about 11pm. I'm turning into an adult... And that makes me sad. I wish I was still able to function even if I didn't get enough sleep, like during high school and undergrad. I get like 8-10 hours of sleep every night, and I can't function properly if I get less than 6 for more than two nights in a row. Pathetic. I went out to dinner and then dessert with some friends, and we were all yawning by 10:30!!

I think I saw a cockroach scuttle from the living room into the dining room, but I'm not sure because its kind of dark in the living room, and I'm not about to go investigate right now... I don't know where my parents put the roach spray!! Ughhhhhhhhhh I hate cockroaches. *Shudder*

Back to school tomorrow. Back to studying like hell. Actually, I don't think I really study enough. 'Sall good because all you need to do is pass. I know I'm not going to go into a very competitive residency like derm or ophtho or neurosurgery because I figure that I worked my ass off to get to this point that I finally want to take the "easy way out." Because I'd rather go into something a little easier to get into, my grades don't matter quite as much... Board scores matter wayyyy more for residency. So yea, that's what I'm thinking. I wanted to do cardiology, but I can never hear quiet abnormal heart sounds (like a category 1 murmur), and I can barely ever tell the difference between S1 and S2 (I know you guys don't know what I'm talking about haha) soooooo I don't know what kind of cardiologist I would be hahaha. I still haven't figured out what the optic disc looks like in the fundoscopic exam... That worries me a little... I have everything else down... ears, nose, oropharynx and tonsils, normal lung sounds, what wheezes sound like, normal heart sounds for the most part, liver, joints, neuro exam, etc. I'm going to learn all the more embarassing exams (WWE, prostate, testiticular, etc) this year.

Speaking of WWE, I don't know why people say they only feel pressure. Mine hurt. A lot. And then I had to get an US done. That hurt even more. Ugh. I'm not getting another exam done until I get married. Noooo way. Btw, I haven't gotten the results of my pap yet, but my US was normal, so my issues aren't caused by anything grossly serious, but I'm glad I got it checked out. I had been kind of worried about it and been losing a bit of sleep over it, but I didn't say anything. I sort of tend not to.

I need to remember to send a thank you card to the doctor I worked with this entire month. She gave me cupcakes from dessert gallery as a good-bye present, which was really really nice of her. I need to send a thank you card...... tomorrow.

I think I'm going to go to bed now. 11:30. Wow its late. Wow that's sad and a little pathetic. I'm turning into an old lady.

Until the next one then.

One Week Summer Break Update

One fourth of my summer vacation is over :(

That makes me sad.

So far, I haven't really done much other than work. My preceptorship is going fine. I get to do the interviewing and then a little physical exam and then I present to my attending. Yup. Just like how its going to be in 3rd year. I just wish it was a little busier at her clinic and not any downtime. That way I can keep busy and not think about how I'm wasting time. Meh, its all good. I guess its kind of nice that I'm not so busy. Anyhow, I've had a longer break than I expected because my attending went on vacation with her family and I'm getting 3 days off plus the weekend. I go back to work on Tuesday.

I feel boring lol... I have nothing to say really. There's nothing going on. Supposedly there are a couple of boys my parents are looking at, but I haven't gotten on any of the details about any of them, so I'm not worrying about it right now.

I have a gynecologist's appt on Monday, and my body decided to become normal on Wednesday. I swear my uterus and ovaries just need to be threatened by a visit to the gyno's office for it to become normal again. The same thing happened last time when I went 2 years ago. Ugh. Stupid body. Anyways, I have to write down all my concerns in a list-ish thing... Ughhhh. I'm kind of worried now. We'll see what the doctor says. :(

Hmmm... I'm kind of tired right now... We went to Galveston today for the sandcastle competition thingie. It was actually really nice weather, a little hot but with a cool breeze, and we did chap-chap in the paani (splish splash in the water). So that was fun. Then tonight, I went to the a dinner thingie just for food bc my dad said they would have the speeches after dinner, BUT they had all the speeches before dinner, and I just sat there. Then I ate dinner and then left right after. The brother and the boy came with me and the boy is staying over tonight. If they are rowdy tomorrow morning, I will steal the tv and video game control remotes. But yea, I'm tired soooooooo that's all folks.

Until the next one then.

10th Bday!

The brother turned 10 today! Wow, I feel old. Ten years ago, on this day, I was at the hospital holding a hairy baby and in denial that I had a younger sibling. I think that's why all the pictures of me from that day look strange and uncomfortable haha. However, I won't forget the summer afterwards, where we really bonded. In high school, we took naps in the afternoon together, and that kid would not let me do my homework. He either had to be in my lap or sitting on the desk next to me, especially when he was around 1-2. He would always bother my dad if he had work to do, and always stole my dad's highlighters and markers to play with and would get upset if my dad tried to take them back, hahahaha. There's a video somewhere of my brother saying, "Daddy... euirhgskdhgdkhg" with my dad saying, "Really, beta? tell me more" and he did in his strange gurgling language. Its the most adorable video ever. That same kid is TEN now. The same kid told me that the boys get to watch a video next year (the girls watched one this year), and he thinks its about "how wieners grow when you get older." Good lord. Why did he grow up so fast?

Anyways. Enough sappiness.

I've been busayy lately. Moving in took quite some time, and i'm finally all settled in. They FINALLY fixed the leak in the bathtub and refinished my bathtub so its like new again! Yay! Its just, I don't know how long I have to wait before I can take a shower again. I'm guessing a day or two. Ah its ok. I'll manage. It just really smells terrible everywhere except my room. The stuff they used STINKS SOOO BAD and they didn't turn on the exhaust in the bathroom or the kitchen. At least, I kept my bedroom door closed today and the fumes didn't go into my room. I'm kind of scared to leave my room bc it prob smells everywhere still. Anyways, now all that's left is fixing the ceiling tiles in the bathroom, which i think they were cutting outside when I came home today. So maybe it'll get put in tomorrow? Dunno. They can come and do it. They have my keys. I can't be here 24/7 bc i have class.

Finals in 2 weeks and I'm not as nervous as I should be. Its not bc I'm confident, but its bc I'm just so tired now. I'm pushing myself at this point. I am having such a hard time focusing its not even funny. I have 1 final in exactly 1 week and my other 2 are on next Friday. Its already 6:30 today ughh. My goal for today was to listen to all the lectures from yesterdya and today, and to listen to 2 old lectures for my how to be a doctor class and then to read for PBL tomorrow bc we have a quiz, and then maybe start going over lectures from the begining again (this time with highlighers haha).

May 29th... my last day of MSI... I can't wait... MSII is going to be rough with a giant number of classes AND boards. Blahhh... someone quick, remind me why I'm torturing myself??

I'm exhausted both from waking up early today and from studying :(

Until the next one then.
