circumstances have changed a lot since i last blogged here. for better (or worse), i've become intensely involved in AAA (asian & asian american) issues. as for my career choices, i'm still premed until it strikes my slow mind that i am not suited for that path--or until i fail orgo II for certain. life goes on :)
at the moment, i just need a place to record AAA-related issues and events. here is where livejournal comes in again? and of course, feel free to comment when you please.
