Edale

This a belated post, but on Oct. 20th, the Hillwalking Club (American trans. hiking) hosted a trip to Edale in the Peak District. We walked through sheep fields up to the top of a moor, bush-whacked through heather and bracken, and watched as the weather turned from blue skies to horizontal wind and drizzle. It was wonderful!

Cheers!























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

Anglesey Abbey

Last Sunday was BEAUTIFUL. It was fall on steroids. It demanded to be basked in the sun and appreciated out of doors. So I biked to Anglesey Abbey with one of my friends from my program. The ride was about half an hour and it took us along the River Cam, through fields, over bridges, and along country lanes through towns called Fen Ditton and Stow cum Quy.

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. 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. 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...
