Like sands through the hourglass....

I haven't blogged in about 20 days. And what's happened since then? ABSOLUTEY NOTHING. Okay, so this is a lie, but the truth is I don't remember anything that has happened, so I have to lie to cover it up. Hmmm..not really a good policy to adopt. But I have been pegged as a liar before (aaahhheem...you're probably not even reading this anyway :P), so what else is new?

So, let's see...my last year of college I had an issue with getting up in time for my 8am class (what?? me?? turn off my alarm and go back to sleep? Noooo!) and I seem to have reverted to my old self. In other words, I've found myself missing my bus (I only missed it by 2 seconds, I swear!!) and being forced to run after the public transpo-mobile to get to work on time (haaa!!). "And I ruuuun, I run so far away..."

My yogurt exploded in my bag the other day...yogurt-covered goodness all around. Unfortunately, I had to come to the realization that I had yogurt guts all over my stuff by the strange goo leaking onto my coat...yogurt goo does not equal happiness.

I've stumbled onto the best place in the world, also known as the Viet Hoa Market on North Ave in the good land. It's a little Vietnamese grocery store, but they have so much cool shit. Where else can you find 10 different kinds of coconut milk??? "You want gelatin in can? You want green blob in plastic wrap? Oh, I see, you want oyster in plastic tub...very good, very good." So what if I can't read the printing on the package? I can recognize pictures!!! It's actual a really cool place...you're not gonna find this stuff in your run-of-the-mill grocery store. And the Japanese candy they have...fannnntastic!

Growing up, you hear "your elders" complaining about how time moves so much more quickly when you're older. Being a kid, you don't care and you run off to shove more dirt in your mouth...well, listen up kids! THIS IS SO TRUE. I'm getting old (not really, but REALLY) and the time is just disappearing. It's almost February already; where have I been? I thought this year would be so long and now I'm worried it's going too quickly (I really have issues with making up my mind, if you can't tell). Gotta enjoy it while I can, and enjoy I shall, but geesh.

Work is still work...still learning, still commiserating about our shitty healthcare system. It's an uphill battle and that hill just keeps getting steeper. Buuuuuuut it's not all depressing...the docs are cool, I haven't gone [totally] crazy yet, and I still dream of being Dr. Arthur, Medicine Woman. Haa haa!! Now if only I could get the theme from "ER" to play every time I walked into the clinic, I'd be set....

Mucho amor.
