A little reward

I just took my first exam of my medical school career and felt like rewarding myself. I can't really go internet shopping for a reasonable price since I'm not in the states, but here are few things I've been desiring for a while.

I wear these at the moment, Sheldrake by Oliver Peoples.
They're a bit bulky, so I was thinking perhaps the Shurons below would be more comfortable. I contacted them and since they don't have a great distribution network, I'll have to order several at a time to find the right fit. It seems like a hassle but these are looking quite delectable.

 
Style isn't the first thing on my mind here, especially with all the information they throw at us on a daily basis, but it makes me feel a bit of home. I'm desiring quite a bit more but it'll have to wait. Anatomy lab at 7:45 AM!

Inertia

I've been planning on how I should start this new blog, as you can see for the past year or so. I didn't want it to be a private pissing ground but more for idiosyncratic humor and the occasional ruminations. It will be random, but hopefully casually enjoyable. Here are a few questions and answers about me:

Who am I?
I'm a 29 year old first year med student.

Why am I writing here?
Since I am just in my first term of my first year of med school, my motive behind the blog is to keep me sane and to celebrate the amazing in the everyday.

Where am I?
At the moment I'm in a Caribbean medical school, on the beautiful island of Grenada.
