for the longest time, i've been wanted to update my blog. yet, so many excuses for delaying and forgetting it.

new year, new resolutions! very typical of me, wanted to improve this, improve that. among all of those "goals", updating my xanga may make it to my top 10 list of things to do in 2009. by far, the most important one will be job hunting!

so yes, for those of you who don't know: after graduating from dental school, i've moved from boston to philadelphia to begin my residency program. little by little, i've gotten somewhat used to philly. prior to my relocation, the very little i know about philly is from tom hanks' movie <philadelphia> and also, philly's cheesesteak. after six months, i've finally "settle in" and have found that it's really not as bad as i thought. philly has a nice location----only two hours away from my

city, nyc, and it's close to many many many good shopping outlets!

and it's home to some very good eatery places!
my residency ends in mid 2009, but i probably will stay in philly for the rest of 2009. no matter where you are, hope you are enjoying your life and happy 2009!
