bigorexia

The weather hasn't been too bad down here in SoCal. Somewhat hot during the day, but windy and cloudy enough to keep cool. At first I thought that I would need to take 2 showers per day because of the excessive sweating, but 1 just may be enough.

Day 1 of not having to work for the Lim lab anymore. It has been relaxing and quite possibly therapeutic, but I do feel unproductive if I am not working. Maybe I still haven't gotten rid of my workaholic nature. My plans for the next 2 weeks involve spending time on myself, reflecting on what I could improve about my work ethic and my priorities.

Other thoughts running through my mind during the day revolve around lab and if I really miss anybody from there, especially my PI. Considering the way things ended, I think not.

My day is too preoccupied with fulfilling some requirements of the medical school before I matriculate in the fall. Updating vaccinations, getting a physical exam, taking online courses involving patient privacy, reserving spots for the white coat ceremony.

New life, new goals. I'll start trying to be productive by reading the 1st paper by my new rotation PI.
