About Me

I will be honest, this is not the first blog I have started. I have tried a hobby blog, a "thoughts on life" blog, a weight loss blog and probably a couple others I am forgetting.

I post for a while and then stop. Life gets busy, I get bored, I feel like I have nothing interesting to say or a combination of the above things. But somehow, I always end up back, starting another blog and hoping to stay with it! I love to write and I love the idea of people reading what I write and actually being interested in the things I have to say. Hopefully this time I will stick with it. Part of the plan is to not write about just one part of my life. I am hoping that by including all parts of myself in this blog I will never get bored or run out of things to say. I also hope that someone, somewhere will find what I have to say interesting! (Multiple someones would also be appreciated.)

For this first post I will include just the basics about myself:

I am 23 years old, newly married and living in Dearborn, MI (a suburb of Detroit). I am currently enrolled in Wayne State University School of Medicine after earning an undergraduate degree in Biology and taking a year off to work as an advocate for HIV positive youth. My dream is to specialize in Family Medicine and serve as a Primary Care Physician to some sort of underserved population. Photography is a hobby of mine, though I don't have much time for it these days. I am overweight and trying to lose about 100 pounds over the next 1 or 2 years, I also have OCD and suffer from frequent migraines. I am quiet at first but funny and loud once you get to know me. My family is complicated and will take a whole post to describe at some later date. I love animals and right now my pets include 2 cats, a conure (small parrot) and a fish.

That will have to do for now. I need to finish my lunch and go to anatomy lab (abdominal dissection today!)
