Edale

This a belated post, but on Oct. 20th, the Hillwalking Club (American trans. hiking) hosted a trip to Edale in the Peak District.

Cheers!























It's subtle, but please try to appreciate the horizontal nature of the wind

WGW: Feb. 5th, 2020

Every week I send out an update to the medical school, which gets send out as part of WGW (What's Good Wednesday), an email where the associate deans of students compiles the professional and academic accomplishments and life events of the student body in an effort to help keep us connected even though we are spread out across lecture halls, campuses, and hospitals across the state. Usually populated by sporadic submissions of significance, after talking with friends before I left, I decided to twist the format to suit my needs to stay connected to my class.

Birds of the National Archives

I spent three days in early November pouring over the archives of the Ministry of Health for my first essay, which was about the failed attempt by the NHS to standardize medical records in 1965. The  National Archives has a pond out front and every morning I enjoyed being greeted by the diverse fowl outside. Hope you do too! Heron (?) Mid-downpour Swans on the move. A million times less graceful out of the water than in it.

WGW: November 20th, 2019

Every week I send out an update to the medical school, which gets send out as part of WGW (What's Good Wednesday), an email where the associate deans of students compiles the professional and academic accomplishments and life events of the student body in an effort to help keep us connected even though we are spread out across lecture halls, campuses, and hospitals across the state.

After the fifth week of consistent submission, my update was given it's own special place and title: Kassel's Corner.  Salutations from across the pond! Kassel Galaty (Med20 wannabe) stubbornly remains in England. Crunch-time is approaching as her first essay is due next Monday (send eloquent, concise, and historically illuminating vibes her way) so this is mostly what she has been doing: She has so many b...
