Happy New Year everybody! Time is passing fast huh? I was just getting used to writing 1999... Well, wherever you are, I hope you're celebrating safely! Have a great New Year's eve! Tell me how the countdown goes... cuz I'm going to sleep soon... Yes, I'm lame... and tired. Too much shopping and walking with Linn and Margaret today. And nothing to show for it. That Woodfield mall is just way too big.

My blog page is 6 days old, yet it feels like a lifetime... My baby is growing up!

I just discovered a restaurant gift certificate that expires today. I've been holding on to this thing for over a year and a half. Now I gotta go use it, otherwise it's $25 down the drain. I hate when this happens... Okie dokie, I'm off to spend!

It's a quarter to 2 am, and I'm still up... Yikes. I'm getting hooked to www.isketch.net - it's like playing pictionary online with people around the world. I'm getting killed. By 3rd graders probably.

Jenny Yoo's bday dinner tonight! She's definitely one of the nicest medical students I know. I think I better go shop for a gift... I hate shopping for gifts. I never know what to get. Sigh.

Very cool. The Asian American film maker who directed Shopping For Fangs (another great movie!) is being showcased at Sundance for his new film Better Luck Tomorrow.

Yeah! I'm done for the day! Just finished my orthopaedics rotation. Bones and fractures and other interesting stuff. So now that I'm free for the day, I get to hang out with Margaret later! Welcome to Chicago friend!

Amazing how the hours pass when I'm editing webpages and links... I must be anal or something. I gotta go study or do something productive...

In a couple of days, my new permanent webpage address will be: www.hochie.net
Bookmark it! And in the coming months my email will be transitioned to: hochie@hochie.net

So, of course, the day after my blog page is created, the entire blogger site is temporarily shut down because of some hacker messing with the system... Well, I am back. Maybe I'll actually keep on posting here...

Margaret is in town. Yeah! Where are you? Gimme a ring already girl!
