| Hmm...what to say...what not to say... Well its been a while. The return of Kevin's blog gave me the itch to do the same. If you haven't talked to me in a while, I have moved back home to San Diego (San Marcos to be exact, but still SD county). New job at UCSD doing muscle physiology research. www.muscle.ucsd.edu Awesome job so far. learning lots of new things and such. Good opportunity for me to expand my experiences...blah blah blah...ask if you want more details. the job is cool, the people are nice BUT I feel like such a dumbass here. Everyone I work with is either aa engineer, grad student, med student, MD, PhD, or any combination of those. can't help but feel a little out classed but hopefully, through the powers of mental osmosis, some of it will rub off on me. I need it! If you don't know already, MCATS and applying to med school kicked my ass to say the least . Honestly, it feels like I am working against fate or something because it sure wasn't because i didn't try hard enough. Do I still want to go be a doc...Hell yea..bitches...I enjoy nothing more than solving life's problems with a scalpel and some forceps. but sigh, I wish i were on my way to that point in life. I just have to remember my path there will just be different from the norm but I will end up where I want to be... SD is nice and all but honestly, I really miss Davis/Bay area. Mainly missing the hommies. Miss living with the guys, working out with Kevin, Kevin's buying of random cool stuff, random visits from people, j-walking to safeway, sushi. NOT driving to work, cussing at the wii and other video games (ninja gaiden), not having to download things for myself, random outtings in SF, occaionally getting called a moron, but mostly just miss constantly being around friends. Yea I am meeting new people, making new friends and all that stuff but its not the same. Good stuff about SD...the weather of course, although we did have a week or two of really high humididty which was really nasty, not paying rent ( but that comes with the cost of my sanity), saving money in general, seeing some old friends occasionally... Gets a bit lonely down here. I have been trying to fill up my days. I started doing wushu at Jing,taking a first responder first aid class, running on the beach. maybe more to come. Keeps me busy, keeps my mind busy... Its getting late, i need to finish reading and go to bed. Maybe I'll write again, maybe I won't...who knows |
