Some thoughts, mainly random rantings. I was 23 when I started this blog, and as time goes on some thoughts will remain the same, some views may change when I am no longer the observer but actually the performer, in this play that is life. These thoughts simply reflect a bit of the chaos that plays through my mind every day as I take a moment to observe the little details that I encounter along my path.

Just babbling...Waiting for immunology class

starbucks has started serving its Christmas blend ( aromatic and delicious with a hint of cinnamon and other Christmas spices;) ) yummy, a must have for coffee drinkers.
also why not ask for a shot of malt in your coffee the next time you seem to waltz into starbucks. Not only does it add an extra coziness to the taste but it also gives you a packing load of B vitamins.
Finally there is need for a light sweater in Florida.
Today is a beautiful day, its calm, I feel like a solitary figure looking at the world.
why is this thing seeming like a journal entry and not a blog?
well so far the morning is fresh and I haven't observed much to think on or write on.
I met vishal this morning, he compared me to a macaroni ( in that another girl seemed like a spaghetti ...Interesting although according to vami I'm more like a ziti .
FAU houses some weird students.
This kid has peeked into my cubicle about ten times so far? note to all you guys, if you must check out a girl don't make it too obvious... A smile and slight stare will suffice, you don't have to keep on leaning back in your chair peeking, I guess that I must seem like an amusing specimen or maybe someone that he knows. Ah the ever popular icebreaker...Do you have the time? Sure let me check my phone...Ah can I have your number? NOT smooth! Ha hah...
okay kid is probably wondering why is this girl staring at me...She must be a weirdo (KID HOW TRUE)...Now onto breaking the mood with a growling stomach that scares the life outta kid so he gets back to his studying:D he heh

1. Interesting factoid: Sabin polio vaccine: grown in monkey kidney cells , therefore it is attenuated to grow only in those conditions, it needs factors from monkey's kidney's cells to survive, so if I inject you with this virus, your antibodies will recognise the epitopes of the virus and memory cells will multiply but you will not be infected unless you happen to have monkey kidney cells;)

2. Tb vaccine must be given a booster every 10 years...now why do HMO's refuse to pay for this?

Upon entering immunology class I learn 2 things:
1. Hartman experienced diarrhea last night that shifted his immune system to the TH 2 subset because of bacterial infection from his dinner.
2. A flu shot will fix his immune system back to the TH1 subset
