I discovered Mélanie Laurent in the awesome Inglourious Bastards (muse see movie). Being the Francophile that I am I immediately developed a girly crush
. She has the quintessential French style of chicness that looks so easy and non-fussy. Everything she wears seem effortless. She is also not afraid to make daring fashion statements. Gotta love her !Here are some of her chic everyday ensambles:

Fed Up
Jul. 20th, 2009 | 10:00 pm
music: Gazette - DIM
Anyhow. I just took a shower, and had another epiphany. Basically, I'm pretty much fed up with the whole Med School thing. I've just stressed my brains out studying for the MCAT (I actually had headaches from thinking so much!). Now after taking the MCAT I am stressing about completing the primary applications. There are more applications to go after that. Plus interviews.
I have decided to wait two years instead of one to apply for medical school. The advantages are numerous:
1) I had promised my current boss that I would commit to working for two years for her. Taking a two-year break from med school would honor my promise and save me from having to be a lying horrible person.
2) My new boss would be able to write me a nice recommendation.
3) I might even get my name on a scientific journal publication.
4) I would have time to volunteer at hospitals.
5) I would actually be able to take a breath, relax, enjoy life and my new hard earned money!!
If I were to apply to medical school now I would enjoy none of those advantages. In fact, I would have tons of negative stuff to deal with:
1) My relationship with my boss would be shattered - her wrath is something to be contended with.
2) I would have to deal with my guilty conscience
3) I will have no volunteering experience what so ever, which would look very bad on my application.
4) I would have to stress myself out with filling out lengthy applications and attending interviews if I get any.
One extra year is not so much in the long scheme of things right? I always rush myself too much. You can tell by the way I walk
lol. I need to learn to let myself breathe, though it might feel too good to be true...Link | Leave a comment {8} | Add to Memories | Tell a Friend
Fruits of my accidental shopping spree
Jun. 26th, 2009 | 09:58 pm
Not my fault at all!
But I love what I got nonetheless: a convertable leather purse/clutch (yes to add to my purse collection), and some killer heeled ankle boots. Both are pretty out of my closet's repertoire in terms of style, so I do not feel too too guilty... I guess( pics under the cut )

The White Mary: Book Review and Reflections on Life
Jun. 19th, 2009 | 11:48 am
The White Mary is the explorer/journalist Kira Salak's first work of fiction. However, the novel has almost an autographical feel, with beautiful detailed accounts of the atmosphere and experiences. The protagonist Marika, whom the indigenous people call "White Mary", is like a version of Kira herself.
BOOK SYNOPSIS
Marika Vecera, an accomplished war reporter, has dedicated her life to helping the world's oppressed and forgotten. When not on one of her dangerous assignments, she lives in Boston, exploring a new relationship with Seb, a psychologist who offers her glimpses of a better world.
Returning from a harrowing assignment in the Congo where she was kidnapped by rebel soldiers, Marika learns that a man she has always admired from afar, Pulitzer-winning war correspondent Robert Lewis, has committed suicide. Stunned, she abandons her magazine work to write Lewis's biography, settling down with Seb as their intimacy grows. But when Marika finds a curious letter from a missionary claiming to have seen Lewis in the remote jungle of Papua New Guinea, she has to wonder, What if Lewis isn't dead?
Marika soon leaves Seb to embark on her ultimate journey in one of the world's most exotic and unknown lands. Through her eyes we experience the harsh realities of jungle travel, embrace the mythology of native tribes, and receive the special wisdom of Tobo, a witch doctor and sage, as we follow her extraordinary quest to learn the truth about Lewis--and about herself, along the way.
To me, Salak represents a new kind of female hero. Like her character Marika, Salak herself has traveled into the world's most remote and dangerous places, including war-torn Congo and the interior of Papua New Guinea, and narrowly escaped death. She has been chased or captured multiple times by rebel soldiers in the various places. Two of her non fiction novels talk about these adventures:
THE CRUELEST JOURNEY: SIX HUNDRED MILES TO TIMBUKTU 
This book accounts her journey as the first person in the world to kayak alone 600 miles on the Niger River of Mali to Timbuktu, retracing the fatal journey of the great Scottish explorer Mungo Park.

5 reasons why I love Paris
Jun. 13th, 2009 | 12:23 am
- you can eat all the good food you want and still lose weight
- you can bring wine anywhere, i.e. out to picnic by the banks of the Seine (they even have a special pouch to carry wine in their bookpacks!)
- the wine is so cheap (and good). 99 cent champaigns anyone?
- you get to dress up everyday in fashionable clothing
- great city for walking
P.S. this is totally irrelevant, but I just noticed I got a dimple and a half. How do you "grow" a dimple when you are 22?
