Work continues to eat away at me as we gather more data and the prospect of a paper looms on the horizon. Even as we’re approaching the holidays, the atmosphere at lab has gotten more tense as our boss enters his hyper-abusive “You can’t get this experiment to work in TWO days?!?!?” mode. A friend actually called me last Friday night because he was surprised that I would actually miss out on free pool at the recent HST TGIF. Fortunately, Melody’s been taking good care of me with lots of tasty recipes. I also got a good laugh when I received a copy of my new book from Kaplan. This book project was essentially an all-in-one STEP I study guide designed to compete head-on with the popular First Aid series. I spent some time over the summer writing several chapters for them, and among the list of contributing authors, I was listed as “Glenn Yiu, MD”. Hehehe – and to think that I’m working my butt off to get a PhD when I can already be a doctor! =D
