new addiction...

the most difficult part about coming back from vacation was that over break i developed a new addiction--to watching the Iron Chef...

i can't stop... and the big problem is that it airs on the food network at 2 am, so my sleep schedule is all out of whack...

the good news is that the new schedule (w/o anatomy) is so much more managable that I feel like i've got much more time for this sort of nonsense... like wondering what Masaharu Morimoto's new restaurant or maybe where he was head chef (Nobu) are like... next time i'm in new york or san fran, i'll deinitely have to stop by...

i think, think i can maybe afford the sushi bar...

anyway, seems like the beginning of the semester always brings with it planning trips to get away from the semester... it looks like i'll actually make it to florida twice in march, which is great considering how awful a month i expect march will be weatherwise here... and going on a spring break trip to cocoa beach (or is it coco? I've got no idea...) with the classmates will really be my first stereotypical spring break experience ever... so i'm looking forward to it...

well, another parting inspirational quote from Dr. J is in order:

"Every society honors its live conformists and its dead troublemakers." - Mignon McLaughlin

this one, this quote i really do like... see y'all later...

cheers,
