SAWZ for the lateness.

So in the line of me being terrible at blogging, I give you...the END OF THE SEMESTER. As such, I have been busy both celebrating and getting things in order for what is to come. Next up on the roster, Coster, is the pasta disasta...just kidding. (If you don't get the reference, you should. Ergo, watch THIS.) However, this upcoming week I have two days of orientation, one day of travel, and then I'm off to pretend to be a doctor! It should be fun and thrilling and I will definitely tell you more about it as it happens. The only downside should be that I don't take many pictures, and therefore will feel that I can only tell part of the story.

On a similar note, here are some pictures from a post-test party event. We went to a movie, and then meeting up after for dinner, I got greeted by John in Becca's doorway. Well, this is the sight I saw:


The event was altogether silly (as advertised, I presume). However, I ended up looking like this:


The visit got even more interesting as I entered Becca's kitchen to see:


Given the recent legal uproar, quality good old-fashioned Loko is difficult to find in these parts. For Christmas, Becca bought John 12 Loko Classics and there they were a lying in a row. It was a disgustingly glorious scene to behold.

That's it for now. Until my preceptorship folks!

Obligatory Weekly Post

The semester is over...kinda. As of 4:30p today, I have completed all of the lecture for Fall semester. Everything here on out is just reviews, tests, and then my extended doctor vacation (preceptorship).

In other news, I've been really sick recently, so I'm taking a break from doing anything non-essential, ergo blogging. Expect more updates soon with pictures.

Slowing Down

The semester is winding down and people are starting to be more relaxed, but there is still a lot more to come before summer break is upon us. Although, seeing my friend Nik watch soccer games during class still makes me feel like I'm still more focused than some.


Relaxing before test time is still a priority for me though. The last two weekends, my friends John, Nick, and I went out to Lake Wauberg to go enjoy the natural air and kayaking. It has been so soothing for the soul. Weekends become so productive as I recharge with some fresh air and exercise at the beginning. I even felt so hippie-like from my nature time that I indulged in Krishna lunch. More aptly, I demolished Krishna lunch as there wasn't much left after I downed my second plate.


Obviously, I had to go with my resident hippies, Ashley (of the Berkley hippie stock) and Grant (of the UCF slacker clan).


Of course, John was also in attendance, but he spent all his time on the phone like a lame-o.


Well, study breaks can only last for so long. Back to the grind time starts now.

Can I Have A Look at Your Genitals?

The time has come everyone! It is time to check out some penises and vaginas in the most legit of ways. As of last week, we have cadavers with flayed out bowels and visceral organs a plenty, but today just happened to be our last real dissection of the abdomen. Ergo, vis-a-vis, concordedly, we start on genitals tomorrow. We already got a preview of the testes over the past week where I found out a lot about my downstairs members-only club. Some highlights include that an individual testis has over three tissue layers called tunics, much like those worn by your friendly neighborhood LARPers. Although I sincerely doubt that their tunics would earn such a name as tunica vaginalis. In other news, I have started to look over the anatomy of the penis in more detail and I can't help but feel betrayed. For so long, I felt that I knew my penis and the more I learn, the more I feel like I have a stranger living in my jockey shorts. I'm sure this is just the start of it though as we have a lot more to learn about the various rides of the human sexual carnival.

As far as studying goes, I feel like I'm finally back on track and hitting my stride. Every day I feel productive, and while I may not be back to my Unit 1 feeling of being ahead, I'm definitely on par with my classmates. Hopefully there isn't too much more material left before the exam. I mean, there are only three weeks left. How much more material could there be? Haha.

Life-wise, I've recently contracted what I can best describe as some sort of transient bronchitis. My goal is to survive the sickness enough to avoid having a depressed immune system when winter flus start traveling around. Sadly, my love life seems to be floundering here in med school as everyone is so stressed with work, but I feel that if I just stay relaxed, be me, and have fun, things will work out for the best.

Time to get back to school and balls.
