So fragile..

Heard the shocking news of the death of a batchmate and friend this morning. Made me realize how very fragile life is! Recent events in some of my friend's lives makes me feel like we take life tooo much for granted. The very fact that we are alive today, doing everyday's tasks and being there for people and with people is such a gift. You dont realize it until you hear a shocker like this. A sudden death, just like that...
especially when you talk about that person to friends just a week or two back or even think about them.. and then a week later you hear the news that they are no more. Makes you feel so small. So tiny. So fragile...

May your soul rest in peace. Will always remember you from the 29C and 4 to school and from the temple. I don't think I've ever NOT seen you during Pradosham! May God be with your family!

4th year!

Am a wee bit thrilled as I always am during this time of the year. Its another acceptance at the American Heart Association Scientific Sessions. Happy that its the 4th year in a row. This year it will be a poster. So Orlando for the second time. Thank you God for all my mentors, past and present!
I obviously wish it were an oral, but considering I just started working on this project in April and submitted something in May and it got accepted.. I shd definitely be grateful!
