I've got some really exciting new that has my head spinning and I feel compelled to share it with everyone. (I did tell family and closest pals first... :)
I talked to my premed advisor this morning, and he informed me me that I definitely got the job as Chief Research Associate working for him this summer! It will be mostly on weekends, and some weeknights after work at my real job, which is still a high priority. If it wasn't for my wonderful job, I wouldn't have a paycheck or the ability to do what I am doing.
Anyway... this is a volunteer position, but my advisor just found out that the NIH is going to fund the research, and it looks like I may get some cash out of the deal down the road.
The real bonus is, I now get free tuition! I'll be able to take medical decision making and medical ethics classes this summer for free, and there's also an opp for work/study for about $5000/semester, which would let me continue to take classes like biochemistry and neuroscience next year in exchange for my hard work. I will also get to publish in a scientific paper, which is a big plus on the med school apps.
The research means I'll be back working in the ER in the local city hospital again, and some weekends in NYC. I'll also be able to join the top docs on Grand Rounds. How cool is that???
And finally, I got the tattoo design back from the artist (thanks, Chrissy!), and it looks very cool. I'm really happy with it and now I really can't wait to get it done. I'm going to meet with the guy this weekend to set up an appointment to get inked -- probably right after the MCAT.
OK.. exam tomorrow night.. must go back to studying.
Congrats! Your future's so bright *I* gotta wear shades.

newspaper article (AP): Laura Rush found in open desert in Nevada. She appears to have been left behind with some round metal objects wrapped in what scientists claim to be paper. Both miss rush and the objects have no more value today than when they dissapeared a few months back. It took several hours to get Laura under control. Miss Rush states "The last thing I remember was saying good bye to my mom and leaving on a plane heading west" She also states that to the best of her knowledge she has no idea what kind of research she was to be working on, or who she was working with. Laura doesent even know why she was going on a plane. Local police believe that Laura was just another gambler out on a bender. The Police came to this conclusion after finding several large bottles of Raspberry Ripple and one fifth of Thunderbird. The Police also discovered that the objects in paper were quaters.
Got to git me some o' dat raspberry ripple!!!
Chicks love it. Especially dem Ivy Leaguers.
I'm so happy for you. BTW, I have to say that you're just a bit of an inspiration. Doing everything you are and keeping up a terrific blog? I'm humbled. Keep up the good work on all fronts!
