Photo Shoot

My sister, over at Red, White & Marine Wife is a photographer and her services can be found at Kymberly Ann Photography!  She asked me to be her photo subject, and I happily obliged, because 1. who doesn't want to get some free glamour shots? 2. I love putting together outfits, and 3. I knew she'd make me look great!  Here are some of my favs:


Later, my boyfriend - Jake - came over and he was happy (maybe? maybe not?) to partake in the photos!


If you're in the Indiana area, make sure to look her up if you need a photographer!

Body of Work

I was scrolling through Pinterest, like any old day, and I came across this book:


As a pre-med student and lover of all things anatomy/medical/gross, I was drawn to this book just from reading the description - "A hauntingly moving memoir of the relationship between a cadaver named Eve and the first-year medical student who cuts her open".  I ordered it from Amazon and I'm greatly looking forward to reading this one!  It's been ages since I've had time to read for enjoyment (textbooks ruin any reading fun one may want to have).  I know I'm going to love it already, from page 1.

Dispel from your mind the thought 
that an understanding 
of the human body 
in every aspect 
of its structure 
can be given in words...

MCAT Prep


IT'S HAPPENING.

MCAT.

IN 3 MONTHS.

In a quest for the perfect MCAT score, I'm about to forego all life sustaining necessities - Netflix, Pinterest, Target, sleep - to devote every spare second in my life to studying for this beast.  I've taken a practice test, and baselined myself at a 31 (out of a possible 45).  Anything above 30 is competitive for medical school admissions; I'm shooting for a 35 or better!  More to come as studying begins.....


Ensue internal crying.
