Notes on the body as self:

Lots of things are changing in my life right now, and it has left me somewhat insecure.

But I realized, that's quite pointless, isn't it?

My hair right now is the color that grows out of my head. What is it? Brownish blondish redish dishwater? - that color -you know the one. The one girls who were blonde as kids get as they grow older.

I was very proud of myself for having it all natural color now, which it hasn't been since sometime in early high school. But whenever I'd say something to someone, their response would always be something like: That's great! You should dye it [a variety of opinions].

So, if everyone suggested immediately that I change it, I thought, it must be not so great.

But then I decided, screw it. If dishwater blonde whatever hair is ugly and boring, too bad.

Which doesn't mean I won't dye it again sometime. But only if I feel like it.

In other news, I decided to do the double tragus and rook after all, and I'm quite happy with it so far. Done here. Location highly recommended.

Yeah, I really can't stand the whole idea that being an MD is somehow better or more prestigious than being a PhD. In fact, I was about a hair's breadth away from going to grad school at Johns Hopkins instead of Columbia, and the deciding factor for me was talking to a postdoc who told me that when she was there, all of the MDs were treated like gods and the PhDs were second class citizens. I figured I didn't want to be in a culture like that. Unfortunately, as soon as I got to Columbia we got a new dean who's an MD and is trying his hardest to change it to a more MD dominated model. Really annoying. As if them making more money already wasn't enough, right?
