almost done

Well friends, summer time has come and started to wither away, and I am still possessed by the need to finish up arbitrary course work. OK so it's not that bad, I just enjoy making excuses as to why I'm not having as much fun as could be potentially had within this timeframe.
On a separate note, saw my friend Matt Grushon tie the know the other day, kind of surreal to see a childhood friend engaging in such mature activities. I recollected our times from 3rd to 6th grade; biking between McBee and Carpenter road, playing basketball in the barn, sleeping over at his place while staying up late playing games in the basement, him dragging me outside to play basketball when all I wanted to do was play my super nintendo, going to cap'n bogey's, my wild birthday party...

While the dive was a pain, I had great company so the trip turned out pretty nice. Rather subdued tone at the wedding, no shenanigans... Anyway, procrastination is fantastic. Still doing Tony Horton workouts, the One on One series is awesome. Need to rock out a little more, I suppose it goes back to the eternal issue of time management. Holla back

Word up

Hail friends, and well met. Spring is officially here, as evidenced by the egregious amounts of mucous emanating from my nasopharynx. This past week marked the end of neuroanatomy, and more importantly the last time I'll have to deal with certain professors whose logic sits with me like a stir rod in an uber strong magnetic field.

The current agenda calls for me to catch up on my patient centered medicine course, essentially a social studies component to add to all the science shiza. Due to my habit of procrastination, I must at some point compose about 40 1/2 page reflections of events that in some cases took place several months ago. A part of me just wants to hammer it out stream of consciousness style since the grade is entirely based upon completion, and not merit. However, I've been lead to believe that composing the portfolio should be a meaningful experience during the first year, hmmmmm....

Otherwise back at the home crib currently, things looking good, certainly nice to be home. Physiology starts this coming Monday, looks to be a nice way to round out the year, although things have been known to be thrown askew before (re: genetics course), so nothing is for certain.

Well I've managed to say nothing for a few paragraphs, perhaps this is how my PCM write ups will go. Holla

Still here

Hey everyone, well I guess everyone that used to look at this has moved on to bigger and better things, no matter. Since August I've been attending the University of Kentucky Medical School, after a rough start I've become quite fond of my new home. Speaking of home, I can't get over how nice it is to be only an hour drive from my parent's house, a new luxury that provides ample opportunities to see the family just about every weekend. Not to be redundant here, but speaking of family the friends I've made here at UK are among the best I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Happenstance brought us together and I'm confident we'll be mates through the next four years and beyond. Well I better get to bed, I will sincerely try to post the occasional update, just to keep this blog alive and kicking.
