Late Post ... Really Late

Wow, I can't believe it's been this long since I've posted an update. I am not the legendary blogger that Panda Bear MD is. Google him if you haven't had a chance to read his stuff. Unless you are liberal, then you will probably hate him.

OK. To bring closure to my last post. I ended up with an A- in Chem 122. This summer I finished my Gen Chem and Bio prereqs with another solid 3.5 quarter but my last Gen Chem class took me for a spin and I ended up with a B. So far the Post Bacc is still at a 3.6 and I intend to maintain that or raise it for the rest of the journey.

This quarter I'm taking Physics, O-Chem, and Physiology. This will be by far the most challenging academic quarter of my career. However, the mindset that I have going into it (well we're almost 4 weeks into it) is that if I can't cut it at the undergrad level, then graduate school is a pipe dream. So far, I'm doing excellent. Of the exams, quizzes, and lab assignments we've had thus far, I've pulled A's in all of them. The big bulk of mid quarter exams will be here in about 2 weeks so it's time to kick into high gear.

Life has been pretty enjoyable ever since I made the decision to go back to school. I have absolutely no regrets and truly believe that this was the change I needed to really get on the right path. Aside from the typical premed stuff, I've spent my free time going to concerts and watching my Buckeyes play on Saturdays. USC (for the second year in a row) was heartbreaking. At least we didn't get embarrassed. All of the new friends I've made in college were 12 during the events of 9/11. Though, I still look several years younger than many of them (Asian genetics FTW).

Time to head off to physics lecture. I'd like to say that I'm going to post more but with the work load I'm under, you'll probably have to wait until Thanksgiving or Christmas.
