The One Liner Diary

2010-05-10T00:28:00.004-05:00

Do you believe in destiny?

2009-07-29T09:08:00.001-05:00

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

2009-07-23T22:11:00.001-05:00

Do I drive you as crazy as you to me? This is all a bad idea, but I'm willing to take it if you are.

2009-06-28T02:25:00.002-05:00

Sometimes you just realize down the line that you were lucky that it never lasted.

2009-06-18T01:59:00.002-05:00

After almost a year of thinking that I just needed to keep my close friends and to find new ones, I am humbled to realize that my other friends are super spectacular just the way they are. Thank you for loving me despite my identity crisis.

2009-06-12T18:51:00.001-05:00

I am on vacation. Stop CALLING me!!

"I risk your incomprehension when I speak to you of matters of my heart. Whenever you respond to me with disinterest or incomprehension, or respond with a socially acceptable triviality, or change the subject quickly...I know at some level that you choose not to know me, and I die a little." - Anonymous

2009-05-22T18:39:00.001-05:00

I thought you were amazing...but I guess I was so, so, so wrong.

2009-05-16T00:34:00.001-05:00

I am such a forgiving soul. You better be worth it.

2009-05-06T20:42:00.001-05:00

Too little too late. Better luck next time.

2009-05-05T00:56:00.001-05:00

Yep. The other shoe has dropped, and I'm an idiot for not noticing.

2009-04-19T19:48:00.002-05:00

Waiting for the other shoe to drop.

2009-02-19T23:11:00.003-06:00

Wow. So this is what it feels like to be finally, finally over you.

2008-08-11T01:38:00.000-05:00

Jason Lezak, you're simply amazing.

2008-07-28T22:54:00.000-05:00

I survived my first day!

2008-07-27T15:03:00.000-05:00

I have Internet!

2008-06-17T22:24:00.002-05:00

I think it's funny that the Chicago Tribune reported the pending appointment of the next UIC chancellor before UIC students received any notice by massmail.

2008-06-04T02:33:00.003-05:00

Still homeless.

2008-05-03T22:42:00.001-05:00

Yep. Done!

2008-04-25T21:45:00.000-05:00

8 days and counting...and getting totally freaked out yet again.

2008-03-21T14:01:00.000-05:00

Getting over it.

2008-03-16T17:39:00.002-05:00

Who am I kidding? I'm still crazy, head over heels, for you. But you still suck.

2008-03-11T17:38:00.001-05:00

Scared...beyond words.

2008-02-01T20:10:00.001-06:00

You're not a pre-med anymore; grow up and start sharing info. Don't act all insulted because I know about the consult before you even write out the orders. It's called being on top of things.

2008-01-31T14:35:00.003-06:00

It freaking boggles my mind when the clinical pharmacist's pager rings; it's this loud annoying BRRRING! that only belongs on toys. Histrionic, I say. Why don't you put your pager on vibrate like the rest of us?

2008-01-20T21:24:00.000-06:00

I lost my blue hat!

2008-01-16T22:02:00.000-06:00

Finally, finally starting to believe.

2008-01-03T20:26:00.000-06:00

Aw, geez. I might have to exercise my voting rights for the first time ever. We'll have to look into absentee balloting.

2008-01-02T14:13:00.000-06:00

How come whenever the East Coast gets snow, it makes CNN headlines? Hello! The Midwest gets snow too!! A lot of it!

2007-12-30T21:07:00.001-06:00

Mhmmmm...no clue whatsoever where to be for this next interview. And it's my home interview too! Oh dear.

2007-12-24T15:36:00.000-06:00

Sinusitis seems to like me. A lot.

2007-11-05T17:54:00.001-06:00

That BS that you placed behind your name stands for BULLSHIT. Calling you out. Right. Now.

2007-11-02T20:24:00.000-05:00

Walk it out. Talk it out. Reminds me of Walkabout Talkabout.

2007-10-31T15:10:00.000-05:00

Been there, done that, not going back.

Happy Birthday, Allison!

2007-10-28T19:41:00.000-05:00

Has society become so dumb that an 18 yo virgin is the scourge of America??

2007-10-15T16:41:00.001-05:00

Seriously had a heart attack five minutes ago. But apparently I had some foresight last week to save my own ass.

2007-10-06T15:40:00.000-05:00

Of course you would veto it...you want to spend that $35 billion on saving your precious oil. Meanwhile, these kids aren't getting the healthcare they need!!

2007-09-30T20:17:00.000-05:00

I am just paralyzed with this ERAS thing.

2007-08-08T16:54:00.001-05:00

They're calling me the On-Call Floor Intern C, Yellow Team. Somehow I don't think I'm ready for that quite yet.

2007-07-30T19:56:00.000-05:00

I hate you. You suck.

2007-07-15T19:09:00.001-05:00

The best thing in the world: Seeing an old friend whom you haven't seen in YEARS. And the more you catch up on, the more it just seems like yesterday.

2007-07-12T11:06:00.000-05:00

I hate people who set up their home offices in the public library, conducting business like it's your own boardroom. Like I really care about your Costa Rican holdings, the moldy tile in your bathroom, and the expense account that some gofer overdrew yesterday.

2007-06-25T13:57:00.001-05:00

I feel like everyone is pulling me into all these directions...none of which are ones I want to go.

2007-05-28T14:33:00.000-05:00

Thank you for all that you do...it's a dangerous job. You have to really believe.

2007-05-23T21:37:00.000-05:00

Have you ever been in a crowded room filled with so many people and have yet felt so incredibly alone?

2007-05-16T22:03:00.000-05:00

June 25th. D-Day. Time to see what I'm really made of.

2007-04-27T12:19:00.000-05:00

Somewhere along the way, they turn selfishness into arrogance. What have I gotten myself into?

2007-04-26T23:31:00.000-05:00

What you say and what you do are two very different things. Sometimes I don't think I know you.

2007-04-02T23:00:00.000-05:00

Fabulous. It's pouring with thunder as a side show; I'm on call with my umbrella in my car...and I just ran into all my attendings.

2007-03-31T00:57:00.001-05:00

Why the hell am I still in the hospital on call??

2007-03-20T16:15:00.000-05:00

For three days, my laptop was silent. But thanks to Steve, Kevin, and Victor...I'm getting it back!!

2007-03-06T00:01:00.000-06:00

What if the shit you were telling me, I already knew? Why do you act like you're best friends with my friends?

2007-03-04T20:19:00.000-06:00

Under those fake hair extensions and color, that ugly pretentious tan, that big fat ass, and that nauseating brown-nosing smile is a personality as fake as the face you belabor over each day.

2007-02-10T15:22:00.001-06:00

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn't supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it's harder every time. You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You'll fight with your best friend. You'll blame a new love for things an old one did. You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back. Don't be afraid that your life will end; be afraid that it will never begin. ~anonymous~

2007-02-01T22:34:00.001-06:00

I've learned that I just need to slam it back. Cuz I mean business. Niceties be damned.

2007-01-16T23:26:00.000-06:00

Today I got to use a power saw to amputate a leg in surgery. Yeah, surgery is not for me.

2006-12-29T22:02:00.001-06:00

You lost that chance. We're done.

In 24 hours, there will be freedom. Sometimes I really hate this.

2006-09-19T02:50:00.000-05:00

"For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something. You want it to be with someone you can't get out of your head. So that when your lips finally touch, you feel it everywhere. A kiss so hot and so deep, you never want to come up for air. You can't cheat your first kiss. Trust me, you don't want to. 'Cause when you find that right person, the first kiss...it's everything."
-Alex Karev, Grey's Anatomy

"They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them. "

2006-09-03T01:34:00.000-05:00

Sometimes you make me sad, but I don't know if you really mean to.

2006-08-12T02:32:00.000-05:00

Maybe, just maybe...I have to grab on, hold on, and never let go.

2006-08-07T01:12:00.000-05:00

Yeah, we definitely have one messed-up relationship.

2006-07-29T18:38:00.000-05:00

I hate hot summer days because I feel like sitting outside and tanning, but then it's just way too hot to do that. I cannot wait for Indian summer to begin because that means fall is right around the corner...my favorite season!

2006-07-13T00:56:00.000-05:00

I just jumped off the cliff. I really hope you're there otherwise this could be an embarrassment of momentous proportions.

2006-07-09T12:56:00.000-05:00

You have the power to break my heart.

2006-06-28T22:28:00.000-05:00

Ooooh, I got VOX!!

2006-06-20T01:26:00.000-05:00

Sometimes stepping away only makes the homecoming a lot more sweeter.

2006-05-31T19:42:00.000-05:00

The stars are perfectly aligned.

Oh, and I met Vaughniston at the Chicago Break Up Premiere a couple days ago. Totally fun!

2006-05-28T18:31:00.000-05:00

Today...little Nathan G is 3 days old. A belated welcome to the world...in all the excitement I think I should mark this momentous occasion.

2006-05-27T21:44:00.000-05:00

If you have some time, go and make a visit to the traveling Vietnam War wall tribute, sponsored by the American Veterans Traveling Tribute. It is a smaller replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in DC. It'll be in my hometown at the Village Green over Memorial Day weekend.

2006-05-26T14:48:00.001-05:00

Ohhhhhh...so mad. Some jerk(s) stole my front left hubcap from my car yesterday between the hours of 9:15 pm and 1 am...in front of my house!! F*cking A!

2006-05-24T20:02:00.000-05:00

My sister graduated!!!

And what is up with all the comment spam?! Stop!

Watch it...that one's a vicious snake.

2006-04-29T01:09:00.000-05:00

I'm feeling a bit sad right now. I'm feeling that certain people have sold out in order to be friends with other people. With people that are unkind and not worth it in the first place, but hold all kinds of popularity power. I hope I'm never like that.

2006-04-23T22:42:00.000-05:00

Gripe: Going to a second-rate restaurant where the service is poor and the food is poorer. Then ordering a $8 sandwich while one of the members in your party orders an appetizer, an alcoholic drink, poorly-done steak, and dessert. THEN after we're all done, she just splits the bill into 5 equal shares. F*cking a! She's not even a friend!

2006-04-01T00:44:00.000-06:00

Breathe. And add a healthy dose of patience.

2006-03-26T19:14:00.000-06:00

Sometimes I wish you didn't know so much about me...because your silence is more telling than your support.

2006-03-18T16:58:00.000-06:00

I hate inefficient people. Then again, inefficient people probably hate me.

2006-03-17T22:46:00.000-06:00

Kansas, you're killing me!! I gave you guys this one chance, and I had you going far. Never again. Never trust a Jayhawk.

Is it ethical for an AMA-MSS (medical student section) chapter to run a NCAA bracket pool as part of a fundraiser? I don't think so.

Finished reading It's Called a Breakup Because It's Broken. It's actually a pretty good book...I wasn't too impressed with his first book, but I think on this book, he has it right on the money.

2006-03-04T20:33:00.000-06:00

What kind of Indian mother would let her teenage daughter out in public wearing a shirt that says "got cum"???

2006-02-21T22:38:00.000-06:00

"Michelle Kwan withdrew too early. She should have stayed and done her long program one jump at a time. She might have won a gold medal, although it would have taken her two hours to complete her free skate." -Jim Caple from ESPN.com

2006-02-12T15:31:00.000-06:00

Today Michelle Kwan withdrew from the Olympics, and I started crying because it is so sad. The fun has gone out of the Olympics.

2006-02-08T22:24:00.000-06:00

Giving a girl roses and chocolates on Valentine's Day is the most unoriginal idea I have ever heard of so don't be offended if I seem less than enthused.

Also, I hate it when a guy bitches about spending money on his girlfriend. I want to know why you even bother having one then.

2006-02-04T18:14:00.000-06:00

There's a new car study that states that "the new car smell" is pretty toxic. Hm. That would probably explain a lot about me.

On the flip side, if they come out with a study about "that new book smell"...I'll be pretty sunk.

2006-02-01T20:33:00.000-06:00

Damn, my arms are so chunky! I need to start working on them!

2006-01-28T00:14:00.000-06:00

I cried today when I heard that Michelle Kwan is going to Turin. Go Michelle!

2006-01-27T22:49:00.000-06:00

When I'm stressed, it's interesting to see what I run straight towards.

2006-01-24T21:30:00.000-06:00

Nothing matches up to a friendship where you can talk to a friend for a mere 30 minutes, cover everything from phones to boys to Hollywood to shadiness on Friendster...and walk away feeling lighter than you have been feeling the entire day. It's an adrenaline rush...and the true meaning of friendship.

2006-01-11T19:21:00.000-06:00

I watched Bride and Prejudice last night. It was pretty good, but I thought Bend it Like Beckham was actually better. Of course, my all-time favorite is still Monsoon Wedding.

2006-01-10T14:25:00.000-06:00

I watched Wimbledon last night. Kirsten Dunst appeared washed out, and her hair looked greasy. It was an ok story, I guess. I liked the ball boy the best; he was a cute kid. Oh. And some of the stuff that Paul Bettany said was priceless. I like the British.
