I play guitar...now more than ever. My best friend back home in the Dom. Rep. plays guitar in a band...I sang for them in a few shows, then I got kicked out of the band

yeah singing, i can do. i love singing bhajans. i'm some sort of bhajan freak. anyway, i can't tell med schools that.. they won't understand. haha.. the sitar! wow.. that's awesome! you're my hero. haha

Yeah, I only play serious stuff. None of that happy stuff.

I play classical piano. Want to learn some jazz but haven't really had time. I played Moog in a rock band. I also do 3D animation and other kinds of graphic art. Did some film festivals and stuff. I really like to act too.

I also consider myself a gamer and an MTG Wizard.

I do have my own site from scratch, menstruosity.com, where I host my paintings and drawings, some poetry too. I also write my own comics, though I never published them online.

yo​

Yes!! (waves wildly)

Artist, writer (amateur; sf and fantasy). Professionally, I was a graphic production artist before going back to school.
I have a DeviantArt account (which probably will come down soon, though) at chaosphaere.deviantart.com ; I'm presently preparing some of my art to get displayed at the next s/f convention art show.

I play a little music, not very seriously, but I write songs. I'm self-taught on the piano.

I'm a recovering fantasy gamer [Don't do it much anymore; just don't have the time]

In the noncreative front, have also always been into Eastern philosophy, science fiction and world music.

This is great to see that we're a diverse group of people!! Before coming onto Studentdoctors.net - I thought all premeds, med students and doctors just stood around playing golf.

Creative indeed!

Drawing - graphite, charcoal, & (chalk) pastel
Writing – poetry & short stories
Music – vocal, (marching) bass drum, & trombone; have also flirted with: bagpipe, trumpet, & french horn
Painting – watercolor

I am also fond of other (non-traditional) creative outlets like sewing, embroidery, baking, and graphic design (via Photoshop). I would like to pick up scrimshaw or another sort of carving (particularly in bone or wood) in the future, when I find the time to learn those techniques... like I'll ever find that!

I play guitar for Jem, www.jem-music.net, we tour all over the world right now. I've applied and gotten to med school at Northwestern and USC so far. I really want to be a doctor too, can't decide what to do, freaking out kind of, my friends say both choices are great, but doesn't make the decision any easier.

 

[Medikit]

I used to sing and play the violin but it's hard to go to school, stay in shape, and still find the time for music. I guess this means it's just not important enough to me at this time in my life. I still like to write crappy things in my notebook. I call it my crappy notebook.

 

[LadyJubilee8_18]

I also like to paint alot acrylic and oils. Sometimes I do charcoal or water colors. One thing that made me crazy about the MCAT is that I had to neglect my art so that I could study enough. I painted the day I got pack. Art keeps me sain.

 

[Amorphisgirl]

My update:
I have one month until I go on an exchange to Japan. I am:

-taking a knitting class.
-dropping in on a ceramics studio.
-learning how to build indoor water-garden fountains.
(I'm probably also working).

Won't someone please choose me for research, already?!

i can make jelly
try to play fiddle

just packed up my studio yesterday and put it in storage... kinda sad.

 

[mustangsally65]

wow, sitars, Moogs, harmoniums, all sorts of instruments. I've always wanted to learn the sitar, but never taken the plunge.

I play guitar, harmonica, a little piano, and write songs and poetry. I was in a band in high school, and still have my Rickenbacker 325jl short scale guitar.

We should all form bands in med school. I really miss playing music with other people.

I was also an English/Writing major.

 

[wanderso]

I'm probably a bit older than most of you, I'm 28, but I am working on my masters degree in music which I may or may not finish. Anyhow, I have performed professionaly across the U.S. and in Europe as an operatic/oratorio tenor and I am also a jazz/classical percussionist.

 

[Loco Loki]

I'd like to imagine that I'm a great writer. However, my imagination just doesn't cut it. In any case, I'm just here to say that..

I HATE ALL OF THOSE WHO CAN DRAW!!! Gar, I lack all skills in this department, no matter how hard I try. My jealousy of those who can translate their thoughts to art on paper in a way that does not cause them incredible embarrassment knows no bounds. Curse you left hand, CURRRRSSEEEE YOUUUUUU!!!

Don't hate; Appreciate!

OMG! Me too? Finally? All of my friends are in bands. I want to play! I also like to talk about music. I know lots of obscure bands, mc's, you don't (or maybe you do?). PM if you want to jam (especially if you are a guy ....who plays.... guitar or drums (um just kidding)
