I'm a geek. This is a tumblr blog for all my mini-web-ish stuff. When I don't have time to actually blog-blog, I drops random thoughts into this pot and see what bubbles up.

I work at Sony Pictures Interactive.

My views, obessions, etc. are all my own.

More info and longer bloggings are on my webpage - hanabatake. I'm trying to get healthy! I'm keeping track at Ardith Healthy Do

ninjafojinja: The first woman ever admitted to Harvard Med School. Truly inspiring. A Filipina woman named Fe del Mundo received an offer from the president of the Philippines for a full scholarship to attend any medical in the United States after graduating as valedictorian from the University of the Philippines in 1933. She decided to attend Harvard Medical School in 1936, even though HMS wasn’t admitting women at the time. Harvard only started officially accepting women to the medical school in 1945. Harvard was surprised to find that they admitted a woman to their all-male institution but they kept her because of her strong credentials. She even had to stay in a men’s dorm! Fe del Mundo would later go on to found the Fe del Mundo Medical Center, the first children’s hospital in the Philippines. She passed away 2 weeks ago at the age of 99. Wow, she sounds amazing. More info on Wikipedia
