Stinky Med Students

December 23, 2003

Many of you have expressed your concern to me about my reference to UCLA Med students as “stinky”. As a preface, I should apologize for not informing everyone of the punch lines to the many inside jokes that appear on this journal. Unfortunately, the fact that these jokes are not understood by everyone is exactly [...]

New Orleans Reloaded

November 18, 2003

0 Comments

A few interesting things I noticed while organizing my photo album: 1. The pictures below present a similar scenario. Brian/Josh is brandishing his mysterious stick next to Ashley’s bed as I prepare to guard against one of many vicious blows. What I can’t seem to figure out is why Brian/Josh is wearing a different outfit [...]

La Nouvelle Orleans

Accessing the Internet wasn’t as easy as the Society for Neuroscience had promised, so my official New Orleans recap is coming at end of the experience as opposed to the periodic updates that I had hoped to make. I apologize for this delay, but only out of formality, as I am the poor soul who [...]

Halloween Pictures Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions: Prologue

November 4, 2003

The picture below confirms a previous story of mine regarding a city bus smashing into Ashwini’s apartment, which if you’ll recall, was just about the most ridiculous thing I had ever seen in my entire life at that point. That is, until this afternoon, when I got myself involved in a live journal dialogue that [...]

Halloween Medical Style

Many of you are now familiar with the Brian/Josh Duel-Identity Syndrome (DIS) that from time to time transforms our happy-go-lucky Brian into the self-proclaimed “Evil Stanking King of Steel Town”. I am embarrassed to admit that I, too, am plagued by this terrible disease though to a much lesser degree than our dear Brian/Josh. Indeed, [...]

Boozefest 2003: A Tribute

October 28, 2003

0 Comments

The Annual Neuroscience BoozeFest (a.k.a The Neuroscience Retreat) took place last weekend in Laguna Beach, and just as anticipated, BoozeFest 2003 was definitely good for a few memories. We immediately broke our traditional driving arrangements when Brian/Josh drove in my place, but this gave me the perfect opportunity to get a few pictures from the [...]

I’ve got your qualification right here!

I just wanted to thank a few people who helped get me through the written qualifying exam experience: Deborah: Thank you for bringing the inordinate amounts of junk food that kept me “energized” and “focused” during our journal clubs. Libby: Thank you for coordinating the journal clubs and keeping everyone accountable for reading and presenting [...]

Get ready world because I have escaped the Black Hole of Studying (that’s just the name I gave it) and am returning to the real world! Yep, this is a pretty big moment for me and the rest of the Neuro-crew. We are officially done with the Written Qualifying Exam!!! (unless, of course, we fail [...]

Way to go Brian!

I know I promised to continue my Grandmar story after the exciting cliffhanger ending, but I’m going to be out of town this weekend and don’t have the time tonight. I’ll be traveling to Pittsburgh on Friday with Seth B. and Jen B. to attend the “legal union” of Brian/Josh and Kathy M. If you [...]

Not Concerning Grandmar But Still A Fabulous Journal Entry In It’s Own Special Way

A few silly items from today: Libby: Did you hear about that guy who was decapitated by the elevator?Emily: No, I missed that headline. As we walk into Starbucks, Joy proclaiming “I think I’m going to buy some coffee!”. A random lab story: A few of the researchers in our lab were chatting one day, [...]
