Short (and long) reads extracted from my personal life.

  • CMYK

    CMYK color. I’m not good at using it yet. I’ve been trying to get my banquet image set up so I can get some actual prints made of it at my local photo shop. I figured that converting the image to CMYK mode would make sure the colors turned out correctly, because it would give me a chance…

  • Huzzah

    I don’t think people like reading long journal entries. I don’t blame them; I don’t think I would either unless I really cared about what was going on with the person. That, and then when somebody writes all this personal stuff everybody reads it and then there’s this awkward feeling. I mean, what are you going to…

  • Banquet 2004

    I put together several of pictures taken of Rachel and I the day of her junior/senior banquet/prom. Isn’t she beautiful? I had great fun working on it, and it came out nicely printed too. Thanks to Judy for letting me use her tablet. I think I’ll take it somewhere and get them to print out…

  • Vacation, Life, etc.

    So now that it’s been nearly a whole month since I wrote in this thing… I was on vacation for a week with my mom, little brother, my best friend Jason aka PlatinumTalon, and his younger cousin doubling as my little brother’s friend. I’ve been going to Chincoteague Island, VA every summer for more of my life…

  • I’m Back

    I got in at 2:00 am EDT today. Aside from the fact that I missed Rachel every minute of every day, the trip was awesome. I met a ton of great people and had the opportunity to participate in a number of unique experiences. Some of the medical related highlights included the anatomy laboratory at UCSF, where…

  • National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine

    The title’s quite a mouthful, isn’t it? But that’s where I’m headed this weekend: San Francisco, California, where I’ll be staying for ten days. I’m excited/nervous about it; I’ve had the chance to meet a bunch of the attendees online beforehand, but the worst part about it is that I’m going to be away from Rachel. Even if…

  • The Answer to Every Question

    Yes, the answer to every question is Rachel. I’m wearing a shirt that smells like her too. I got to go prom with her on Friday and spend the whole rest of the weekend at her house. It was my first time ever wearing a tuxedo, which was cool, and then Rachel was absolutely beautiful! I don’t love…

  • Doublethink

    Wow. I just finished reading 1984, a book written by George Orwell (of Animal Farm fame). The story has really struck me. It was one of those books that grabs you right from the beginning and carries you through to the end, and a plot where you’re hoping the entire time for something good to happen at the end and…
