Welcome to Styloid Process where medicine, fashion, and the metamorphosis within collide. Borne out of a keen desire to expand my self-expression while in my second year of medical school, I’ve decided to make internet footprints and share with you my thoughts. Mostly, because I feel slightly hampered by med school and the fact that sometimes you just have to memorize things and think less. The irony, of course, is that when I’m actually a doctor I’ll be doing A LOT of thinking! In the meantime, I’ve decided to write Styloid Process to prove to myself that I’m not a boring drone—that I have passions, talents, and interests.
The blog will be a montage of my random thoughts, musings on medical school and medicine, and there will be some fashion features—namely eco-designers that I am passionate about, or outfits I’ve thrown together through careful or impulsive construction. Through this project I hope to progress through my metamorphosis as blunted medical student to inspired doctor. While it’s easy to remember why I wanted to go into medicine sometimes it’s hard to remember why I’m still in medical school! But, I think having passions outside of school will keep me grounded and focused. And maybe I’ll start to remember why a Yale-educated anthropology major and poet-photographer decided to come to medical school. Let the journey begin!
