cold static x




I have written a poem since my freshman year of college. I would usually write to get my feelings out of my head and onto something else. Lines will come to me while I am walking around the city or just hanging out in my lab. I am going to start writing again. I have been coming up with some great lines and it is about time I started jotting them down.

School is great I switched labs and I am so glad I did. The lab I am currently in uses flies as their research animal. It is a really small lab. There is the PI, a post-doc, A tech and me It is a really young lab and they have so much stuff going on. My 1st lab rotation wasnapos;t for me and I needed to change it fast. Luckily, the lab still had an open slot. It really was a blessing.

I really miss everyone back home. I expected that, but I am dealing with it much better now. I also want to say that everyone needs to be careful. After living in the Bronx,I now alot about the demographics. Out of all of the 5 boroughs, the Bronx has the highest rate of HIV infection. The borough president and the hospitals in the area are really trying to address the issue. I am finding it hare to fathom the size of the matter. The Bronx has over 1.4 million people and they are trying to inform everyone about the spread of the virus through the various communities. I will admit it, I am worried. Will anything they do work? Will it all end of being wasted man hours? I hope not. This epidemic is spreading in our own civilized nation that has the means to stop it. How did it get this bad? I did my service learning at the HIV prevention center and I saw them do more testing and food baskets than actual "prevention" The time of handing out condom packets is nearing itsapos; end. There needs to be something more drastic. I donapos;t know what it is, but until then Iapos;m gonna try and do my part. I am looking into some potential volunteer opportunities and will wait to see if any of them pan out.

Protect yourselves and each other. Be safe and make wise decisions
