hearts-of-fire replied to your post: Maintaining Plants
Nice analogy. But I completely agree with you. At the beginning of this year I decided that I’m not going to bother with people that I don’t see being in my life for the long haul. It’s not worth it.
Yeah I’m the same way. But sometimes I feel that I don’t give people enough of a chance or people get turned off when I...

Maintaining Plants
Oh. So interesting story. I bumped into the girl I made friends with during orientation summer before freshman year. We kind of had a “fall-out” around end of October near Halloween. I always expected drama with her. She had been asking me to go out on Halloween for that weekend just pleading and as she always does. She also gets kind of mad if I don’t go hang out with her. I had...

Re-Evaluate
Today was a good day. And by good I mean it wasn’t entirely boring. I guess the reason I ever have “misery” in my life is because I am bored. I do weird things to amuse myself by messing with people and seeing how they react. Pretty immature right? I don’t do this so much anymore because this past year life has just gotten more interesting. With research, living conditions,...

Published
Oh also, just found out, while talking to the researcher I work with, he publishes students where credit is due. Nice. Most researchers don’t do that even if they have a number of students working under them doing all the work. Not sure if a paper is going to come out of the project we are working on within the next two years…but if it does, it’d be nice to get published...

Advising Appointment
Went to the career advising appointment I made for today. Was not extremely helpful but I did get something out of it. I wanted to know where my degree could take me if I didn’t make it into med school…back up plan? I had thought, “What else can I do with a BBCS or Psych degree besides med school, be a clinical psychologist, or do research?” Well the adviser answered these...

Thoughts
I’m starting to get into the habit of just typing up these posts while I’m laying in bed with thoughts on my mind. I have a lot to say but I don’t have time to write them all here or rather I feel guilty spending so much time sitting down and just writing as often as I used to when I know I’m not getting the best grades. I need to focus and not put too much attention to my...

Fall Back
Wow haven’t posted anything in three days. Well that’s a record for me.
I have been so. worried. about my future. Med school. Will I be able to make it in? With the rate my grades are going now, probably not. But, since I am a sophomore and I have quite a few more classes to go, then as long as I have a positive trend then the chances are higher for my acceptance. I have felt so...

Lately
So I guess I havent exactly been honest with myself lately. I thought about it but it hasn’t really been brought to the forefront of my mind until now when I was talking to a new friend. The same one I have mentioned in previous posts. After class we drove over to his place and hung out. His dog, Val, was in her cage. Just a beautiful beautiul dog. She’s a Siberian Husky. She’s...

chivalreezy answered your question: Overreacting. I know.
You can’t do a music video in a couple takes. It takes effort and a lot of editing. If you’re not satisfied feel free to give critique
Don’t get me wrong, we did a LOT of takes. Unfortunately I didn’t see any of them until after she put together the video because I just assumed she would know the right angles. ALL the...

Community Service - Rotaract Club
So there’s something I want to talk to leader of the community service club I am in now. I won’t say exactly these words, actually most of this will be filtered, but here are my thoughts on our club:
The purpose of the community service club is to benefit the community and to help those who are less fortunate as much as we can, correct? The majority of our “fundraisers”...

Music Video
So after showing my mum, dad, sister, friend, and ex, and seeing what they thought, we all pretty much agreed upon the same things. I decided to talk to the girl honestly about the “problems” with the video. My friend told me to say in a nice way, “It’s not you, it’s me, I don’t look good at this angle, etc etc”. I hate sounding vain but honestly you could...

SO TRUE.

Overreacting. I know.
How do I tell someone I don’t like the music video they made of me because of these horrible angles that make my face look fat? The whole thing is bad. The angle is “looking up” at my face and up into my nose. It’s gross and super close up taking shots from my forehead to my chin. Like I said again my face looks fat. If you don’t show enough hair past my shoulders my...

Foreign Fields
After talking to some of my non-premed friends I realize how much medicine has always been right in my face, my passion has been so intertwined with my life that I can’t even imagine how it could not be a part of me. Seeing medicine through another person’s perspective must seem very foreign as their field does to me.
The reason I’ve always had a passion for medicine was not...

Valentine's Day
I noticed a lot of people feeling sad or complaining about not having a “Valentine’s date”. Come on people! Valentine’s is about love and showing your appreciation for family, friends, and everybody! Don’t be sad! Be happy for the important people in your life.
That’s what counts <3

Shadow of Death
I just noticed I haven’t read an entire book for just pure pleasure in a long time. I’ve read bits and pieces of books but never the whole thing through in a very long time. I just recently started reading this book “Shadow of Death” on my tablet through the Kindle application. Better yet, it was a free e-book :) I did not expect it to be as interesting as it is. It’s...

juwadmalik replied to your post: Just Friends
happens both ways sadly, but even if a guy likes you and you tell him otherwise and he is cool with still being friends would you be able to?
It’s a little awkward the next time you hang out but after that point it’s usually fine. So, yes I am fine hanging out with them even if I know they like me. I just don’t reciprocate any of...

Just Friends
This always happens. I know I’m going to sound as if I am “bragging” while pretending to be modest, but let me assure you, I am not.
I hate when guys who could be potential friends start liking you. I want to be friends, stay friends, and nothing more. I hate hurting people’s feelings and rejecting them.
I tend to come off to some people as a “flirt” simply...

New SD Card!
Just bought a new SD card off Amazon yesterday. Just $13 plus an SD card reader so I don’t have to connect my phone every time. Nice. Well I guess I am still connecting the reader to the computer. But I’d rather carry around the reader than the phone cord. Right? It’s a tiny reader.
My goal in life is to carry as little as possible. In fact I wish all my stuff could just float...

A man said to Buddha, "I want Happiness."
ivylively:
Buddha said, first remove “I”, that’s ego.
Then remove “want”, that’s desire.
Now you are left with only Happiness.

Tumblr Note Count Wrong?
Anyone know what’s wrong with the tumblr note count? I just realized sometimes it’ll show that I have 2 notes or so when I click “show notes” I see definitely more than two notes. Or it’ll show that I have five notes or whatever, I click “show notes” and I see only “violetsdiamonds posted this”.
Anyone have this problem? Just a tumblr glitch?...

He loved her in a distant kind of way, the same way the sun heats the Earth. If she were to disappear completely, he knew through pure logic that it would have no great, disastrous effect on him. He would not cease to be; he would not stop breathing; his heart would not stop beating; the world would not stop spinning. The sun would keep shining, radiating heat, if the Earth were not...

honeysucklemagnolia replied to your post: Whitney Houston has died??
Poor little Christian girl, all the innocence spoiled by a mean man… too bad she had no power to say no… seriously
Sarcasm? yeah. I expected someone to nit pick at my words. But you get what I’m saying right? She wasn’t always like this. But when someone is so in love they will do things they normally wouldn’t...
Whitney Houston has died??
What. I am still in shock.
Although I shouldn’t be too surprised. Most likely drug overdose.
Stupid Bobby Brown messing up this good, innocent Christian girl. He’s the one who got her into drugs…throwing her career down the drain…and now her life…

Take it slow and save big on gas
You can get 35 percent better fuel mileage out of your current vehicle by using a device most drivers already have.
That would be your right foot.
Most drivers agonizing over the cost of gasoline fail to realize the enormous impact their driving style has on fuel consumption.
If you want a big gain in fuel mileage, though, you need to seriously lay off the pedals when driving around town....

Sweet Sister C
Yesterday something interesting happened. Not that interesting. Just something my sister did.
So my mum had brought home some candy, Hi-Chew. Delicious chewy candy that comes in a packet with about maybe 8 pieces in it. My mum and I had been eating them throughout the day. She then said, “Leave some for C.” Later when C got home, we left 3 pieces for her, she asked me, “Is this...

Spoiled
It’s amazing how spoiled some kids on tumblr are…yet they get praised and likes for their posts. I think treating parents badly like that is really a young thing. When you get older you learn to appreciate them. I know I was like that. But jeez this one girl really took it to the extreme. Not that big of a deal…don’t have to throw a tantrum…and curse and swear on your...

N
On Wednesday of this week after BioPsych class ended around 4PM, my friend, let’s call him N, asked if I wanted to grab coffee at the nearby Espresso Royale. I got a Chai Latte and a chocolate muffin (that ended up being horrible stale, so I exchanged it for a cranberry scone with raspberry cream drizzled on top, but anyways…). We talked for a good hour and a half before I had to go to...

I was thinking more about my first bf. He wouldn’t go near that area that time of month. He told me he couldn’t help thinking about “all that...

Shadowing Dr. K - Day 1
It’s about time I write about my doctor shadowing experience. Normally I shadow Dr. A, but today she was out of office so I scheduled a time to shadow another one of the doctors, Dr. K, DO. She is a spine doctor.
When I entered the clinic I met her in the doctor’s lounge room of computers and everything. We greeted each other and she lead me out to the hallway and towards this large...

Abstinence. Just kidding.
You know what I hate the most about periods? Forced abstinence for a whole week.
I am so mad. It’s just blood. And you’re wearing a condom anyways. I don’t think it’s gross at all.
BE A MAN.
Look on the bright side we won’t even have to use lube.

Work Out
Just worked out. Okay I feel a million times better now. Just needed that good boost of endorphins to set me straight.
Now I feel a lot better instead of mindlessly following routine on auto-pilot while stuck swimming around in my own head all day as I have been for the past few days.
I never thought I’d be one of “those” people who exercise to make themselves feel better. It...

theoreticul replied to your post: Distractions
Honestly we are not all so bad. The issue is that at your age we tend not to think. Clarity is not a in the repertoire of the young male. That said they do exist. Don’t look for the guy that always agrees with you. Find the guy that challenges you.
I agree, not all guys are bad. It just seems that most my age are immature and only know how to...

Distractions
I feel so ashamed to say this. This is so unlike me.
But I want someone to love. I want someone to hold me. I want to be a team. I want to be together. I want to be able to say, “us”. I want to wake up in the morning next to him and see the sun streaming in through the window.
I don’t want to play this game anymore. Stupid guys trying to play that, “I had fun today. We...

So there are a few things I will write about this week that I was planning on but just haven’t been in the mood to write. Well first, shadowing spine doctor, Dr. K (It was awesome! It’s going to be a long post I’ll probably write some time tonight). And another thing I wanted to talk about was my new friend from class. We had studied together for the exam and after class had gone...

Ahh lost my SD card...
Lost my SD memory card for my phone…no pics for a while :( Don’t worry I had uploaded all my pics before I lost it…Actually I had backed up the memory stick onto my computer a few days before I lost it…lucky me.
Fortunately they’re not too expensive on ebay…
