• Education: The Musical

  Okay so you guys are in for a special treat tonite! Especially Kelly
  and Kim, who I know appreciate my bouts into med school dorkiness. SO i
  have mentioned a few times before on this interweb thing that I am a
  t.a. and reviewer for Physiology, and also that each week for review,
  Ryan and I usually do a little educational skit. Well although most of
  them require filming and live action for this week i just did a song
  parody like back in the day (remember, Apryl? good old finals week
  stress??)

  So here it is posted for you guys…let me know what you think. Sing along, you might just learn something

  Digestion
  To the tune of Mrs Robinson

  chew chew chew chew chew chew chew chew chew chew chew chew

  Well what goes on during digestion?
  eat the food but after that who knows?
  oh oh oh
  Well then lets learn about digestion
  how the gut takes nutrients away
  hey hey hey-hey hey

  Lets start with the cephalic phase when you see food you like
  saliva contains alpha amylase
  in the stomach HCL and gastrin from vagi
  help the stomach get set up for eating that pie

  the next step in our digestion
  esophagus moves the food below
  oh oh oh
  the l-e-s lets the food go by
  if it dont thats a-chalasi-a
  hey hey hey-hey hey hey

  In duodenum the chyme becomes isotonic
  from pancreatic secretions now
  but in the jejunums where most absorption takes place
  ileum just secretes bicarb, K, and waste

  a reflex in our digestion
  food in stomach makes ileum go
  colon ho!
  now we’re in the large intestine
  use the valsalva, its bombs away
  hey hey hey-hey hey hey

  sitting in the east pod for a tuesday night review
  learning how the food moves down your gut
  B-E-R it, M-M-C it, how do you know which?
  studying for digestion’s a bitch

  BER comes after a meal
  moving through the gut what you just chewed
  ooh ooh ooh
  MMC when stomach’s empty
  every 90 minutes lest you ate
  hey hey hey-hey hey hey

  AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. Because I am sure you have all missed them, here are some more ADVENTURES IN AIM

  Y2KenH: if they talk more than they walk, i’m not watching it
  Y2KenH: it becomes like dragon ball z
  coffeeweasel: oh you mean in terms of action sequences?
  Y2KenH: next episode: main character moves a foot

  Y2KenH: that clown in the van idea is a double edged sword

  coffeeweasel:At the gym…sweating like r kelly at the kids choice awards…
  RitikaUCI: you are the gross

  Alright, so yes, i know i am consistently promising you these diwali
  pics and then not delivering them so you all think i am a ridiculous
  hateful person, or at the very least a tease. My little xanga here is a
  bit like sex in that regard. getting some only makes both you and me
  want more.

  It is not precisely like sex, however, because
  A) you most likely do not weep with gratitude after viewing my pic
  posts and/or reading entries because you have never been satisfied like
  that before AND
  B) I do not perform my spastic touchdown dance after each entry, the way i do on those few occasions i now get laid

  But I digress the point was, i have a truckload of work i am having to
  be doing, and i am really really far behind in it, and there are many
  many pics to post, and frankly i am as tired as the last remaining
  prostitute in mexico city, although sadly, not as wealthy and long
  story short if i do not see comments, i get less inclined to post.

  This is in no way a snotty why aren’t you people commenting thing. I am
  simply just more motivated to keep writing when i know people are
  reading, and lately i have apparently not written anything worth
  commenting about…my bad. But to those of you who did comment, thanks!
  gold star and 2 points for you!…first one to hit 26 points, gets a
  xmas present sent to them from me!

  Y2KenH is still in the lead, but anyone can play…comment for more ways to earn points

  So yes, basically this whole post was an excuse to say no Diwali pics
  til later this week now. But here is a teaser pic of me with the guys
  from the Bhangra dance
  
  That’s right…Josh is number one Punjabi! Balle Balle. Also seen,
  harmandeep, neeraj, and sanjam, who is a real sardar and tied all our
  turbans. There dont say i never gave you anything
