So my time as a MSIII is halfway over. What’s sad is that I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up. =( You know, I started out medical school wanting to do infectious disease because I was bright-eyed and naive and wanted to be involved in global health and “save [...]

As most of you know (so I jump on bandwagons late…) this ’25 random things’ about me phenomenon had been floating around on Facebook. I got tagged a couple of times, but I didn’t really want to be exposed on the big bad world of Facebook. So instead, I’m going to be putting it on [...]

Our school decided to put on a Halloween carnival this year-since so many families have lost their homes during the storm and because it’s still dangerous to go around Galveston at night, we wanted to give them a fun and safe alternative to the traditional trick-or-treating. There were lots of fun, games, face painting, and [...]

This birthday was one of the best. It was on a Tuesday, so we couldn’t really do anything on my actual birthday (except have cake…which was awesome), but I was totally surprised on Friday when I walked in to what I thought was just your ordinary dinner party but turned out to be a secret [...]

Yesterday was my mom’s birthday and so I decided to make her a cake. I was inspired to make tres leche after watching Alton Brown’s ‘Milk Made’ episode of Good Eats. The end result: The only problem? The cake didn’t absorb all the liquid like it was supposed to, grr. And even though I had [...]

You know that feeling when you’ve found a really great thing? That ‘Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I’ve been missing out’ feeling? Well, that’s how it was when I went to Yogurtland the other day, haha. Upon hearing a tip from friend A that they serve taro flavored frozen yogurt, and that they had [...]

Today the 2008 Beijing Olympics drew to a close., and they went out with a bang. I have to say that I’m so dang proud of my country for pulling it off so well. Yes, there was lots of controversy (and those NBC commentators were annoying) but these Olmpics have done so much to prove [...]

After the cardio test 2 weeks ago, I was more than ready to take a break and play all weekend. This past week was Restaurant Week in Houston, which donates to the End Hunger Network. We looked through the list of 50+ restaurants to find one that we liked. We had to scratch off almost [...]

There’s nothing like waking up to the smell of fresh cinnamon rolls and coffee. Well…I didn’t exactly wake up to it, since I had to make them, but Auris had the luxury of waking up to this breakfast. I couldn’t sleep last night-I’ve been having trouble sleeping in the new apartment. I wake up during [...]

Pictures of recent events!…(all stolen from Facebook, so they’ve probably all been seen before, haha) Austin fun: We started off at Club Antro for the CSA party. I reunited with my family!! ooh strobe lights, haha. ^This picture cracks me up, although I refuse to tag it on Facebook. I felt totally ridiculous up there, [...]
