hair
I have been highlighting my hair blonde for about six months now. At first I hated it - I thought it came out too streaky and looked trashy, but after a few more appointments, the color evened out and I grew to like it. I have super fair skin and blue eyes, and lighter hair somehow makes me look less pale.
But now that winter’s hit, my hair has become incredibly dry and is once again the...
woo
Finally, finally, I’ve finished all my tests and self-assessments for the semester! I have granted myself a week of freedom. Also! This is my 500th post. Cheers to me. I’ve had my tumblr for almost three years, I think, so clearly I don’t post that much…

biore strips
omg. highlight of my Christmas. If you have oily skin and want to expose the spiky forest of horror that resides within your pores, this is the way to go. I’ve probably discovered this about a decade after everyone else, but if you’re behind like me, these strips will blow your mind. My pores are okay, so I had to use a test subject, but it almost made me wish I had blackheads so I...

weird-o cabin fever musings
I am obsessed with taking my temperature. This habit predates med school by years; I think it’s just driven by my love for data collection. Just now I was sitting on the couch, passively perusing cell bio powerpoints, when I touched my arm to my forehead and it felt vaguely warm. Immediately I jump up for the thermometer. It’s stupid - I’m def not going to act on the fact...

help
There’s a mouse (mice? omg) in my apartment. It even had the balls to come into my room out of the radiator and only turned its ass back into the floorboards after it saw me there. I shrieked a little.
Rarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr I thought we had eradicated these beasts with poison… anyone have mouse extermination tips?
woot woot
Still on the super slow track but at least now I have time to do something fun with my life for an hour or two … TBA what said “fun” will be … food, sleep, hulu, and Christmas shopping are top candidates. Also in search of something cute to wear when I hit the Florida SUN on the 29th - can’t wait!

times are hard. I have to take four self-proctored anonymous pass/fail exams in the next three weeks. To cope with my dire situation and to give myself a short reprise from memorizing minute anatomical details (chances are I won’t be cutting you up during my lifetime, so no worries…), I will be posting selected pix from a year of carrying around my phone (the original Droid). enjoy.
went to a bar event at the newly renovated Mory’s last night, which looks exactly like the pre-renovation Mory’s except now they are apparently financially solvent. I had two glasses of wine in about two hours and felt suuper tipsy - when did I become such a lightweight? Probably when I told myself I was going to spend $0 on food for the rest of the year and scavenge from school...
