Just wondering what everyone does in their life aside from bhangra (like your 2nd, 3rd, 4th priorities after bhangra, lol). Curious as to who is a student, who has graduated, what you're studying, etc. We can already tell a few med students from the comments on lactic acid and whatnot, lol. There might be another topic on this already, but if you want to then post your

- Major/Minor
- Year
- Job
- Career/What you wanna be in life!
- Hobbies or anything else you do, if you do anything besides nacchhh!

It's always cool to network and learn more about the peeps on here...

Major - Biology
Minors - Chemistry, Psychology, Business
Year - 4th! SENIOR WOOHOO!

Job - I work on campus as a Peer Mentor, and I work at Guess at Galleria Mall (which is useless cause once again I am the only floridian here).
Career - Hoping to start medical school next year (if interviews go well).

Hobbies - Everything has been put on hold for medical school apps, kinnell since youre the only other pre-med to post so far, they suck! lol. But usually i'm a big fan of art. Graphic design, drawing, painting (cause of ALL the DIFFERENT colors and textures... ;) ) ummm. Big fan of hip hop music though bhangra music and mixing has definitely bumped any other music out. Play alot of basketball and lift weights like a mad man (if i was too lazy for medicine I'd be a trainer. though i eat food like its crack and love junk food). Oh yea so food is another hobby. I love it. and I'm also a big hookah fan! I have 2! i think thats all...

ESPN sounds like a lot of fun

I'm a tax accountant, and for all you guys taking accounting classes- the work is much less boring and more fun than the classes are

I use to work for Eclinical Works, which is a EMR (Electronic Medical Records) company. Software in Medicine is a promising line, but its a rough change for doctors. My mom is a cardiologist who uses Epic, another EMR company, and she says all of her doctors with herself included hate it because it takes time to input the data.

What you seem to want to do seems more like hardware (for breast cancer detection) or are you doing software that searches pre-existing scans? Regardless, Nav, very cool profession choice!
