California Knows How to Party

Even though there are some things I definitely don't appreciate about CA, I think it's a waste of my time (and yours) to dwell on them. So in the spirit of Thanksgiving, I present for your blog-reading pleasure, why I appreciate CA:

1) In 'N Out. No need to list anything else, but since a list isn't very list-y with only one item on it, we'll keep going.
2) Pretty much any climate/environment you could ever want: forests, deserts, ocean, agriculture, big cities, small cities, rivers/lakes, etc. Unfortunate exception: rainforests.
3) It helped shape who I am. (Cheeseball, yes. But it's Thanksgiving, gimme a break.)
4) Variety of people (ie high fashion vs. the most amazing mullet I've ever seen!!, awesome Christian communities in the heart of materialistic LA, etc). Kind of a lame list item, honestly I just wanted to mention the mullet I saw today.
5) California Poppies (not for the opiate properties, just the color).

What do you love about the Golden State?

Cancer is Funny?

Neoplastic cells as antisocial anarchists.
• They don’t play by the rules
• They act for their own good, not that of the “host”
• They can take over the “host”
• They get normal cells to help them take over

Crosswords

I love crosswords.
Rationalization for doing them during class:
1) Keeps me awake.
2) Sense of personal satisfaction and accomplishment when finished.
3) Stimulates other areas of my brain.

End result: more learning!

Halloooo Zeeba Neighbah!

Hokay, so...
I feel like there's a lot of pressure on the first post. So let's take the pressure off and talk about some fun facts!
1) I'm eating amazing homemade chili.
2) The word vaccine came from "vacca" (=cow), since the first vaccine was developed using cow pox.
3) I'm out of fun facts. FOR NOW.
