4 AM: Random Musings

Somewhere around 4 o clock in the morning (on a relatively slow night at work), I just start thinking about things. Lame things- like what day I should my laundry. Deep and reflective things- like where is my life headed. Horrible things- like when will my annoying patient finally go to bed. And then sometimes, just really random things. It seemed like a good idea to document my thoughts, because well hell, maybe I am not the only one with these questions. Or maybe these are just the thoughts of a sleep deprived crazo...I don't know. But if you have the answers...hook a girl up!
 
1. What happened to exits 132,133, and 134 on the Garden State Parkway?
 
2. What does it mean when a DJ says he is "on the ones and twos"?
 
3. What exactly is in draino?!? How is it able to dissolve anything and everything?!!?
 
4. What is the correct way to pronounce 'Givenchy' and 'Yves Saint Laurent'?
 
5. Why do guys expend so much time, energy, and money trying to get a girl's number and then never do anything with it?
 
6. what is the debt ceiling? (I don't know If I will ever get this one)
 
7. Am I the only person in the world that doesn't like Macklemore's music????
 
8. Do women with stank face know they have stank face?
 
9. What is the point of Scaffolding?
 
10. Why do lawyers have such a bad rep?
 
11. What the hell is egg substitute made out of? That ish is so questionable.
 
12.  Exactly how fast does hair grow? And why am I not bald by now? #shedlikeadog
 
13. Small dogs are dumber than bigger dogs...right?
 
14. How much do coke dealers earn on average?
 
12. How come fish, whales, seals, etc don't freeze in Arctic waters? I am serious, why?
 
13. How can we go to mars and find out what goes down there, but can't seem to find a jumbo jet lost in our own atmosphere? #fail
 
14. Apparently NYC pre-1990's was quite sketchy & pretty poor...where did all the homeless people go?

RUTGERS baby!!!!

It's been a crazy four years, but today marks the official end of my undergraduate career. How can I sum my time at Rutgers in a blog post? Totally impossible. But I can say this... there is not a thing I would change. I have quite literally grown up with Rutgers. The things I have learned, the people I have met, the mistakes i have made, and my achievements all shape the woman I am today. I remember my first day at Rutgers... the nervousness, the excitement, and mostly the happiness. Funny thing is I graduate with those same feelings. I am nervous and excited for this new stage of my life, but I am also thrilled. I can not even begin to explain how I felt today. I came home and waiting for me was my first medical school book that arrived in the mail. I was considering going out tonight, but instead I began looking through the book. My dreams are becoming a reality. My future feels bright, optimistic, and rewarding! I am flying high, and the sky is the limit! But before I embark on...

Direction

The roads of our lives come with no maps. No signs to tell us when to yield, when to stop, or when to go. Streets, alleys, and highways are forged as we drive along. There are crossroads, and choices to be made. There are u-turns, and detours. Sometimes we take the expressway, and other times the local. Sometimes its sunny, and sometimes it rains. But we keep driving. We keep driving. We drive and we drive, until one day our engine dies. Where did the road lead us? What was our destination? What was our purpose? 21 years. 21 years i have spent on these planet. What have i done? What have I achieved. Why am i here? I am driving, but it is foggy outside. I am trying to defrost, but my efforts are fruitless. Everything you do, everyone you love... what does it matter? Who will remember, and moreover who will care? Most of us drive along paved roads, there are few that create the beaten path. No ones journey is alike, after all we are all unique. But aren't most of our destinations the...

The "Illegal"

Recently, Vishnu and I watched "Illegal", a 2019 drama film directed by Danish Renzu. This powerful movie tells the story of a young man who comes to the US on a student visa to pursue his dream of becoming a film director. However, his journey is far from easy and the story sheds light on the many struggles he encounters along the way. As I watched the film, I was overwhelmed by a sense of melancholy and gratitude.  The melancholy came mostly from my thoughts of my parents, aunts and uncles, in-laws, and other cherished people in my life who had faced similar challenges when they arrived in the United States nearly three decades ago. Although they seldom discuss their experiences, I know that life was incredibly difficult for them back then. Many of my loved ones worked arduous jobs, sometimes multiple jobs simultaneously, just to ensure that there was food on the table. They took on this demanding work despite holding college or graduate-level degrees in India. In their pur...
