"Wat is real but invisible?  Ur love.
Wat is true but unfair? Ur away from me.
Wat is sweet but invincible?  Ur smile.
Wat is precious but priceless? Ur friendship.

Not sure if I have readers anymore, but thought I would catch up my Xanga a little. I'll be going to India this summer as a UNICEF intern. Just heard from the office-- I'll be in Patna, Bihar, working with three other graduate students evaluating Polio programs. Two of my colleagues are Indian. One is from the UK. 11 weeks. i've built in 3 days afterwards to travel around a bit. let me know if you have any recommendations. i'm thinking of going to kashmir, maybe nepal.

normally, i don't watch basketball. but there was one game i happened to watch a while back. the coach kept iterating to his players, "mental toughness." i liked that and it stuck with me.

it was finals week-- i was feeling good until a couple of weeks ago, then all of a sudden i kind of lost it. i got tired and couldn't regain my momentum. kept repeating to myself, "mental toughness," but i couldn't snap out of it. finally did some serious praying about it-- and He answered me with extra umph in the end. lesson learned: that's not the way to do things. yo, do my best to stay spiritually fit in med school --> therein lies mental toughness.

yes, it's spring break! ahhhhh... i'm going to enjoy every minute of it.

SPRAINED ANKLE
i sprained my ankle last monday while bouldering at rock'n and jamm'n. finally went to the doctor yesterday, and after 2 hours of interview, x-rays and phys exams, they put me in a boot. i was super-annoyed. i thought this was just another example of overprescribing for caution or reimbursement's sake. but today, i was glad for the dang thing. faster healing, protection from my clumsy self, ... and lots o people offering to do random acts of service for me. :)

CELL PHYSIOLOGY
my brain's not permeable to the material in this unit. blech.
