So I've only got one exam left on the 17th, and then I am all done, graduated, outta here, and back to Montreal to do a PhD in Human Genetics. I made my decision of which supervisor I was going to go with, and I am stoked!

I am so lucky. Montreal is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, especially in the summer, and McGill is also one of the best universities in the world, especially in my field, or anything medically related. To have my whole tuition and stipend paid is just incredible!

Now I have been going absolutely bonkers with studying 30 lectures of pharmacology in a day and a half for the final, after having studied 17 human genetics lectures in two days right before that...that's because my Honors research and thesis writing ate up half my bloody life for the past year...so anyway, when I am going crazy and can take no more, I turn to talent shows to keep me motivated. I love intelligence and talent more than anything in this world. Seeing overly talented people inspires me. So I often watch shows like Britain's Got Talent and America's Got Talent to keep myself motivated.

Of course I love the Susan Boyles so much, those are classic success stories, but then I stumbled upon this video from America's Got Talent on the net tonight. I gotta say, what a treat after all this hard work and suffering. You've probably all seen this already. Her name is Lilia Stepanova, a gymnast and contortionist, a.k.a. Goddess and Eye Candy... I just can't get enough of the talent and grace (and yes, sexiness of course! ) I absolutely love when she contorts, at about 40 seconds into the video, and then her eyes scan the audience and she's got this playful, mischievous grin on her face, as if saying ''I know I'm amazing and you won't believe what you're about to see.''. I smile every time I see that...I think I'm in love. Anyway enough rambling. Here's the video:
