hehehe it has been a long time since I’ve logged on but a bitch is itchin to try and RP so like... might redo this blog and actually learn how to use tumblr c:
Once there was a child, who liked Sour Cream and Onion Pringles. Her name was Goat, and she was AWESOME!!! That was a lie though, she was actually just a regular human being. (I hate writing stories bye)
Hello, I’m Potato, to-be MD. I’m a pre-medical nontraditional student currently in the middle of her gap years. I graduated from a public university in California last year, took the new MCAT last September, and will be applying in June for medical school. Expect there to be some emotional posts as it will be a crazy year. :’)
Will prob be doing a more in-depth About Me tag later, when I’m not so Potato. I chose Potato as my internet alias, because I love eating potatoes in all forms, and I also love lazing around (my fav hobby that I can’t put on applications sadly). I also wish I could be an actual potato at times in my life.
I’m not new to tumblr (been lurking here and there) but I’ve been impressed with the medblr community here, in terms of offering advice and resources and humor in medicine. It’s made me want to sort of join in on all the fun. (Got a personal blog but I rarely do text posts.)
Uh..as for what content I’ll be posting, it’ll probably me a mixture of me writing about my journey in healthcare/medicine, medical humor/gifs, study motivation posts, quotes, and things I find neat/gross/cool in science. And oh, definitely cute things.
We’ll see where my blog takes me.
I’m also pretty big on reading right now, so I might post some reviews of books I’ve read, medicine or not medicine related. I’ve been looking to read a variety of books (while I got the time), so if you’ve got recommendations, shoot me a message!
Right now, I’m feeling like nonfiction about someone with Alzheimer's. Did you know that Alzheimer’s is the second leading cause of the death in the U.S.? That’s taken from a JAMA study done in I think 2012 or 2013. Don’t quote me on it tho, I got inaccurate memory right now.
That’s it for now, but I hope to post more in the future, especially about where I am, who I am, what I am, my other hobbies, and what path I’m interested in pursuing.
