The Life of an Egg

Name:
Location: Los Angeles, California

I am addicted to Flamin Hot Cheetos, goat cheese, rainbow sherbet, and hummus. I want to meet Paul Farmer. I can't touch library books because they smell. I have a tattoo of the tree of life on my back. I have a problem with picking at my nails when I'm nervous, stressed out, or bored. I am irrationally proud of being from California. One of my main goals in life is to be a good person. And finally, please don't ask for medical advice, especially if it involves any sort of discharge.

Baltimore/D.C.

I know I've been neglectful... so here are a series of updates! :)

From where we left off...

I went to Baltimore for the Pediatric Academic Societies meeting, earlier in the month.

This was my first national meeting and it was awesome. It took place at the convention center. It was a little overwhelming and the schedule always had multiple sessions going on that were interesting... it was so hard to pick! My talk on physician communication during signout went well, even though I was so nervous, I could feel my entire body shaking! There were lots of good questions and it was, in the end, a huge honor to talk in front of so many program directors, etc.

Another bonus for the trip was hanging out with my best friend from HS. On Friday, I went to D.C. to have dinner with her, and on Saturday, she came over to Baltimore for dinner. This is a picture from Nacho Mama's, which had the most delicious (you guessed it!) nachos. We stuffed ourselves. mmmmmmmmmm.

Immediately after my talk, I booked it to the train to get to D.C., then super-shuttled it over to the airport, to fly to LA for the start of what turned out to be an amazing vacation.
