Ladies & Gentlemen now introducing ME!

Me to my ex husband (it's complicated, and we'll get into that) "I think maybe I'm going to start a blog" Him: "Are you that important that you need your own blog now?" (in a joking manner...I think).

So I'm definitely not important enough that I need a blog. But a few years ago, I had a blog mostly on fashion and it was awesome just venting anonymously but then I got too busy and gave it up. Now I'm a third year medical student, about to enter my fourth and final year (our school is a little different, so I should really say my fourth and long year). I feel myself losing the hobbies that once helped relax and define me, such as my love of fashion and reading. I need something to help keep me on it. A reason to relax so to speak. Pinterest is fun and all, but I like words too. And while all medical students are overworked and need to relax, I understand that is really not the only reason to have a blog. Oh gosh, I'm not sure the world would be ready for a takeover of blogs by medical students & residents! It's not like there are a million doctor based TV shows out there. Oh wait...

Well here are my stats:


  • Female.
  • I have a daughter. M's a four year old going on fourteen. She'll entertain you as well. I'm pretty sure she's the only reason people navigate to my facebook page. 
  • I am in medical school. No. Not boring. You thought Starbucks was the place to go when you need a little bit of comedic relief? Doctors offices are a comedians wet dream.
  • I am in medical school and I am also a single mother. Not only was I the only mother in my class  (until a month ago), I was the only single mother that I knew in all four classes. We had a another one in the class of 2011, she got married at the end and graduated. Boo! No no, just kidding. I was truly happy for her. Either way, the past three years has given me a lot of perspective on life.
  • My ex and I are well...interesting. See that alone could be worth reading this blog. I call him the Ex-ish because we have to remain besties for my daughter so in a way he can't be out of my life completely... actually we haven't talked much for two years and I am attempting to be besties..for our daughter. Interesting huh?
  • I love fashion. Really love may be an understatement. I think my heart has a special spot just for fashion. 
  • I like literature; reading novels and writing poetry.
  • I'll probably talk about my love of wine as well. I'll try to talk about it AFTER I've drank. It'll be more fun that way. 
  • My other hobbies include celeb gossip (it is a hobby!), photography and mind numbing TV shows (my brain needs many breaks) so you may have to endure some of that once in a while.
Therefore, I just want to share my thoughts. I'll dish about my navigation through medical school and the rest of my medical profession, mommyhood, my lifetime movie love life, and all the hott shoes there are in the world. I think writing this may be just what the doctor ordered. I may not have wordy  posts like this introduction because I probably will not have the time but I am hoping my short & sweet posts will entertain. On that note, grammar nazi's beware I will not spend time editing. 



If only one person reads this and enjoys it, I'll be happy. Even if that one person is just my friend LC (a grammar nazi)...because I'm sending her the link right after I publish this post. Hi LC! 


Sincerely,
Gypsy

p.s why the pseudo-name? I'll be applying to residency at the end of this year. It may be best to be a little anonymous for the time being. No worries, I'm not going to rob you. It is a nickname I've had since growing up because I'm a bit of a mutt ethnicity wise. Just think of it as my ancestors liked to procreate all around the world.
