2 weeks ago, from this original entry, I was hooded for enduring the rapid, fierce waters of medical school. Made it out, few scrapes and scars (which may have been alcohol related) but the parents are proud. Prior to that, I was marinating the idea of research, primarily about cancer, at the world of chocolate: Hershey, PA. Now it's 3 years down of residency, 8 months to go, and many $34.99 monthly match fees have hit.
Aside from my life as a slightly seasoned doctor, Jedi in training, I have always considered myself a musicphiliac. Growing up with sibs that play stringed instruments, i'm a flaky cello player and wannabee photographer. I love pictures, not as much as I love words, but I have found a nice balance between trying to understand life through both integrating science and art.
Growing up middle child, poster child for middle child syndrome, I never really focused much on being in a relationship. Having not polished my skills in such an art I decided to listen to some friends and try out this website.
For me, the person i'm looking for would be difficult to paint in black typed words across a white canvass. It would be someone that would make me feel unjustifiably happy, someone who continually tried to better himself and by proxy me as well. Someone who could engage me in conversation, music, tranquil silence, or contagious laughter, that worked well between us. I think in good company, all things are fun whether it be cooking, swimming, dancing or staring blankly at a wall. I know what I have to offer, I know how much effort I put into things I want, and at this point in my life i'm ready for a healthy dose of testosterone. For serious, no heart pinata games, please and thank you.
On a lighter note, I like to right down recipes and not follow them. I don't think I handle criticism as well as I should, but medical school and daily epiphanies of how little I know is making that easier. I love to sleep, but probably only partition 4-5 hours a night for such since i'm a true night owl at heart. Music just sounds better, books just flow easier, I feel the world slows down enough for me to do the things I enjoy when the sun goes down.
In a different life I would be better at Volleyball, Tennis, and Soccer. I think i'm decent at Frisbee, does that count? Anyways, there is something great to be said of brevity, and on that note, I just raped away any chance of this being short and sweet. If you're interested, shoot me an email.
