superior colliculus

i don't know... with all these chefs recently suing each other left and right over intellectual property... million dollar lawsuits, all over a plate of food. whatever.

quiz 2: 20/20. on my way to an A, if only i hadn't messed up my presentation on blindsight today. ugh. i felt like i was rambling, unprepared. always with presentations in front of class. at least i didn't turn beet red like i usually do when i present in front of an audience. not sure- maybe because i'm nervous? i was fine this time, except for the speech. i learned at the last minute- this morning before class started- that i was supposed to present the part about blindsight and its definitions. UGH. hopefully he didn't take off too many points. that just puts more pressure on me to do well on the midterm due tonight at 11:55. only 3 more weeks of neuro. sad?

so silly. i've been wasting away my afternoon looking at the dartmouth md/phd program. i even went so far as to download the info packet to read. i also looked at ucsf's md and mstp programs. it does sound rigorous, although there are reasons for not going. i applied to another job. it's part-/ full-time research and only has a 6-month requirement, so it'd be great to do that along with classes/volunteering. why pick well-rounded individuals over those that excel in their respective fields? beats me.

MAYBE i'll try "me talk pretty one day." always left unsatisfied with other's book recommendations after having finished reading them. i'm STARVING.

GrimGrimoire- yes/no? looks like La Pucelle. more videogame reviews from garedux, please. you guys are slacking in your blogging.

my mustache has a red whisker.

Why would you ever look into an MD/PhD program if you're still unsure of what you want to do? MD/PhD programs are for the hardcore masochists who KNOW that's what they want to do.

I have to agree with Molly. Just keep looking around and trying things until you're sure.

There's no reason to waste time/money/love/passion.

I'm going to do a couple of "classic" reviews when I have the time, so calm teh fu3k d0Wn.

yeah dude... i'm positive you'd do well in a md/phd program, but i don't think you'd like it.

"me talk pretty one day" is a really great book just dripping with sarchasm. right up your alley.

you have a mustache?
