“The Roman genius, and perhaps the Roman flaw, was an obsession with order. One sees it in their architecture, their literature, their laws — this fierce denial of darkness, unreason, and chaos...” — Tartt, The Secret History

01.01.2021 | 2020 has been difficult, for sure. I worked as an Operating Room nurse for a few months before med school started. it was full of personal wins, but also loses. I got accepted in my dream hospital right after passing the board exam, worked my dream job, accepted in med school, but I’ve also lost patients more than I can count, heard cries over unimaginable hospital bills, and encountered grief and challenges more than I was prepared for because of the government’s incompetence.

so I tried my best to sort out my life— scrub in surgeries while going to med school interviews, advance study for the incoming sem, stick to my routine and schedule, et al, to feel in control of the things that are in my hands. Perhaps I’m no different than the Romans— in my fierce determination to deny darkness, unreason, and chaos. to provide some sort of structure in the midst of uncertainty.

2020 has been difficult, for sure. but 2021 will—should be different. 2021 will be prosperous, full of hope, and better things. there may be loses too, but I’m rooting for more good things than the bad.

you did good this 2020, and you will do better in 2021. we all will. happy new year, everyone. :-)

zoomester studyblr challenge. 

4: For my researching fellows, what are you researching on? If you’re not currently researching, what is the topic within your field that you’re most passionate about?

While I’m not actively researching this, I am passionate about Afrofuturism, more specifically black science fiction, and how it can be used to understand our past and reimagine a future for the black diaspora. Black women and black enby writers have always been so ahead of the game when it comes to this. 

Also, I’m really into music of the black diaspora. Its forms, its histories, the dances created from it and vice versa, the music that has been birthed from movements.
