New times and family time

Mornings waiting for the sunrise on the balcony are serene..

(Those are my extra rectangular feet dangling on the balcony! :D)

So is enjoying a home cooked meal (yay for slowly improving cooking skills, haha!)

Exploring the area by trying out restaurants with new friends,

Michelle and Dana at Tampopo

Nomming on Texas classics when meeting up with old friends,

Eric and Jeremy at Whataburger

Derek trying Korean Juk for the first time

Trying out crazy concoctions at the State Fair,

Sharing fried cake balls with Aurelia

Fried Oreos, anyone? :)

Karen, Tom, and Shelly won a dragon!!

Waiting in line for fous corn dogs

This one is jalapeño and cheese, mmmm~ ^o^

Matt trying to get Gee to eat chocolate bacon and jalapeños

And attending our school's Oktoberfest celebration for some good old bratwurst and yodeling are some of things I've been up to recently!

Meep?  o.o

Who says medical school is the worst thing ever?  I'm happy and (hopefully) healthy, so let's keep it that way!

My parents even came for my White Cost Ceremony :)  it was a three person slumber party, hehe! Last meal together until thanksgiving! My parents cooked everything ^^ thanks for coming~

There's a little of school life!  :)  Hopefully some bits about social life coming soon, haha~  ^^

Starting the "What's going on Fridays!"

Heyyyyy~  :)  I'm going to start popping up here once a week to do a little blurb about what's happening!  Hopefully that will keep my presence around here a bit better than before, where I'm absent for a looong time ^^'

For now, my parents are visiting me today!  We have the "White Coat Ceremony" tomorrow, where all the first-years get their white coats after a month of studying and taking exams and stuff :P

Today we went to the ophthalmology clinic and dilated our friends' eyes to practice using the equipment.  It's *so* much easier with dilated eyes!!  I'm so happy that I could actually use the scope-- makes me feel competent, haha~
