Working my way through the textbook, slowly but surely. It keeps my brain and study skills sharp. But, even more exciting, I’ve been a lab TA for the Anatomy class at my alma mater since the start of the semester! I love keeping my hands in the dissectorial action, as it were, and it gives me the chance to hang out with fellow pre-meds and the professor. :)

I lost a few pounds, which was great and all, but I seem to have settled at my weight set point again. Losing more weight at this point just seems futile and a waste of effort. I’ve learned to keep a better eye on what and how much I eat, but it was a silly effort to begin with (it would have put me at 99 lbs!) and I’m ready to put it to bed.
Earlier this month I saw an orthopedist in LA, and I was diagnosed with possible mild dysplasia, chronic tendonitis on my right hamstring, and femoroacetabular impingement on both hips. Yaaay.
But, with this diagnosis came a prescription for physical therapy, which starts on Thursday. :)
