Good morning! We had a stunning weekend weather-wise here in DC — a very nice reprieve after the past week of unbearable steaminess! I celebrated on Saturday morning by going for a run. :) My running buddy Sokphal and I decided to mix things up and go running in Rock Creek Park! I’d never run in Rock Creek before — it was pretty!

New Packed Lunches & Dinner Prep
June 7, 2012 by 27 Comments
Good morning! I’ve settled in to a new busy routine here in DC. I have to get up at 5:30 a.m. every day to get ready, eat breakfast, publish my blog/catch up on emails and make it to my internship by 7 a.m., but that means I’m home around 4 or so, which is nice. I’ve been using my time in the late afternoons before exercising and dinner and Continue Reading …

Morning, friends! I’ve been having a wonderful weekend so far. The weather yesterday was stunning! Finally the humidity let up.

Hello from our Nation’s Capitol! Matt and I made it here safe and sound from North Carolina and have been busy settling in to our new apartment.

A BIG thank you to Matt’s Continue Reading …

Guess what, friends? Today I have my very last exam of graduate school! Woohoo!!! Our biochem final exam is at noon. We had a review session at school yesterday, after which my classmate Maria and I stayed for a bit more studying, although we weren’t feeling very motivated. All of us are feeling rather wiped out at this point and tired of school, Continue Reading …

Crunch Time

Morning! I’m in the midst of crunch time over here trying to finish up all our end of semester assignments. Yesterday I forced myself to focus and spent a solid 7 hours straight working on these module worksheets we have due today — they are prep for our clinical internship. I broke for lunch around 11, but unfortunately my laptop stayed with Continue Reading …
