2011!
*whew* this is probably the latest ever year ending post. It's been a hectic few weeks, and I think that aptly sums up the past year. Hectic. Jam-packed. From the flurry that was the tail end of LU3, our research project FINALLY getting somewhere, Neuro wardworks and OSCE, to my "redemption" summer in arnis, to ushering in batch 2016, leaving Casa Orosa, entering LU4 and its weekly exams and wardwork galore, new research group and research protocol, being more active in FCM and getting closer to that elusive roster spot, opening up and taking small risks, and of course: Project 365. Yet another year of challenges, academically and personally. Bring it on, I said, and it was brung, which made for one heck of a year!
This year, 2012, is prophesied to be the end of the world. In that case, the challenge this year is simple: to live like it's the end of the world (so cliche, I know). To push boundaries, blaze trails, do things never done before. I've learned that even though life gives second chances, not everyone gets a second chance. Time to grab life by the balls

For me, this was a true showing of human love. One person consoling another person just because they're both persons, both human. This should be our challenge - to be able to go out, and love someone. - TRUE love, may 3
The structure was a defensible position - tiered with lots of low walls and a couple of tunnels. Eventually, the enemy came. They opened fire, we fired back and drove them off. - weird dream 4, may 18
