Strangely, I remembered my blog only by chance. I was sitting in class, bored as usual, until I realized I haven’t really updated my blog in awhile. Feels like such a waste to spend money on it.
So what have I achieved in the last 3 months of my existence? I finally got honors in the Musculoskeletal system. I remember when I started I began with a 74….now I’m always averaging mid-high 80s. The only downside is…that I’ve lost virtually all contact with my friends. I haven’t talked to Alex in ages and feel kind of empty not having him around to rant to. Of course there are others that listen to me rant….but it never feels quite the same.
One thing I do appreciate is how he’s always so welcoming to me even though I skip weeks at a time without talking to him. Now I just have to haul him from Australia so we can actually hang out and chill for once (grr at his employer).

Sam and I were having one of our typical conversations. Conversation came up about me of course.
I call this the smart vs. hard-working talk (as such, Sam and I have virtually a title for every BIG talk).
People always seem to me as smart. Really, I never wanted that label. When I go home, everyone says I’m stupid or lazy and I’m pretty damn content with that. I have no problem admitting that my other siblings are by far much more intelligent that I am. And I don’t complain about it all because it’s just a simple fact of life that I’ve already accepted.
But if you had to choose, would you rather be smart or hard working?
For me, I’d rather be hard-working. Why? Simply because being hard-working would probably allow me to go further in life and achieve what I really want. Being smart can help but without the diligence to keep on studying, I feel that you can’t accomplish much.
Random blurb/blog.
A hole in my brain if you will.
I’m getting a bit burnt out from all this studying. But! Because if anything, life doesn’t slow down for me…so I have to work extra hard to catch up to it.
