| A student I have always been, and I might forever be one. Currently in college studying biochemistry, I find myself concentrating proteins more often than writing on paper (unless I'm doing some quick calculations). But that does not mean I am stuck in science. Writing has--and always will be--a mode of escape for me, a way to forget about the ups and downs of reality and create a new one. I am pursuing an MD-PhD degree following my graduation, but for now, I'll just write a little. . . . |
| I am a writer that trumps word choice over plot. Maybe it's because I'm synaesthesic. All it takes is one beautiful sentence. |
| Again. Words. While it must be awful for someone else to read, I cannot find greater joy than being lost in a good sentence. |
| I have 4 loves: Science, the intricate craftings of the living world that baffles even the most learned scholar. Music, a dimension of the air that steals your heart in its tension. Creation, the majesty of a creative God. And words. Beautiful words. |
