update after a long pause
things that are new:
-I am in albany ny in medical school. things are pretty good. it took me a while to get used to the speed at which information pummels your way, and i was initially very overwhelmed. Since we're doing molecular biology and genetics the material has been review for some of the class, but this is all new material for me and what makes it hard is that it literally just keeps coming like there's no tomorrow. but i'm trying to take things more step by step and focus on what is right now and not even worry about the next week. that doesn't always work but at least i'm trying.
-i've met some really nice people here. unforunately, i feel like after the two week mark in a new school or any environment really, there comes a point when the people you know will be the ones you know from here on out, and the ones you missed talking to or introducing yourself to in the beginning...o well. which makes me sad because i'd hate to think i missed out on a great friendship. also, for a lot of us we're still in that polite getting to know you kind of stage, which makes me nervous and more shy. i just miss the comfort and security of friendships that have a strong foundation
-the temperature is already dropping into the coldness. a girl in my class said it felt like summer turned to fall overnight on a particular day last week, and you know waht? i think she's right. one day, we woke up and even the sun, although bright, wasn't as warming, the air was cool and crisp and had that fall smell. also they started selling pumpkins in the sumpermarket so that's gotta be a sign of autumn
that is all for now becuase i need to go study and nap. more to come...
