Nice little bolero for ya before i go to bed. But quick run down of whats been goin down. Im at Children’s on GI service so its pretty serious. Presentations are no joke with these kids, i have to get my skills up to the point where it doesnt matter who the attending is, i can do a stellar job and knock their pants off. That’s one point, next point is that I gotta step my game up on all levels. I gotta find some way to get life and all its responsibilities taken care off and also get school, rotations, and study in general all in check…

its hard but somehow it can and will be done

next, I have seriously been more and more interested in getting my Spanish better. I have a only Spanish speaking patient mom and I watched my intern do an interview in Spanish. I understood what was going on, which made me proud of myself, now i just gotta get my speaking and grammar going. If i can get this stuff straight i will be making serious moves in the right direction. I have the Spanish grammar book that i work on when im bored/cant study/ random free moments and i feel like if i can get through the whole book by years end I’ll be awesome.

Dang, i GOTTA hit the sack, but one more thing lol… Im also in ethics this semester, and though i had some thoughts about it being a bore, i find myself really getting into the subject matter and discussions. Thats always a great thing, it will feel a lot less like drudgery if i actually do find it interesting.. so all in all a good day. I learned a lot, and i know many things that i didnt know yesterday at this same time. So today was a very good day

buenas noches

200th POST

Yo,

200 hundredth post. Thats sayin a lot cause I dont harldy post on this thing enough. I dont know who exactly reads my blog, i think nowadays its more for me than anything else. I guess its some kinda therapy to let out my creative energy [i guess the blog and my thought book {journal sounds gay lol}].

I remember when i started this blog, first year. I put random funny youtube clips up and probly had nothing to say. Sometimes i go back in the archives to see how far i’ve come. I try not to put too much personal stuff up, no names or anything cause its not like that. this is just an outlet, you know i talk about real stuff and also put up cool things that i see on the street or on the web.

Yeah, so I guess at this point in my journey as i make another transition, I see the vail that covers my future slowly being lifted. Im making big steps towards something, so not to be presumptuous I’ll just say that im seeing things that i need to see and starting to be real about this career and dream im chasing.

thats all for now. About my Bronx trip in a few minutes, i gotta grab a bite

Some good ol quotes

Sittin in chapel today i heard a pretty amazing quote from Pearl Bailey. I had never heard of her before, but turns out she was a prominent singer/actor in the mid 20th century. I’ll do more research on her later, but here are a couple quotes of hers that stick out to me. The first being something i live by.

“A man without ambition is dead. A man with ambition but no love is dead. A man with ambition and love for his blessings here on earth is ever so alive.”

“People see God every day, they just don’t recognize him. “

“We look into mirrors but we only see the effects of our times on us — not our effects on others.”

“What the world really needs is more love and less paper work.”

lol at the last one, I have more to say but later. I gotta talk about this random but very amazing trip to The Bronx.

The divine sarah vaughan, Sweet Ella, and Pearl Bailey… i saw this clip before, just didnt know who the pearl was. anyhow, enjoy

Road, Trippin

Its friggin september…. i know, its been september for 11 days, but think about it. 2009 JUST started and look, you turn around and its freakin September. But then again, real talk, it feels like just yesterday the world change. That fateful september morning that changed the world happend 8 years ago today. That day i was in the early throngs of my junior year of high school, i remember it very vividly….

But yeah, time just doesnt slow down, especially if you dont stop to smell the roses every once in a while. I intend on stopping a lot this weekend, since im going to New York for the residency fair at Albert Einstein and spending the rest of the day taking in the city. I dont know where Im being pulled to, future and residency wise, but im keeping my mind open cause who knows whats around the next corner. I could be in the bronx or something or maybe on that international research thing, the options are limitless; and just knowing that i could be doing anythins is what has me trippin so hard.

I’ll be ok i know, i know, im just sayin that its something that has been on my mind alot. But thats just me, going into the 8th week of school has me looking back at where i was and how far i’ve come already. Its pretty amazing how much can change. Thats why now im trying to write more just to keep track of where i’ve been and how far and fast im going toward my goals.

Life is crazy, i love it for all the ups, downs, quirks and little gems that pop up unexpected.

well i gotta get ready for bed cause im on the first thing headed up to NYC

peace&love

Julian
