Invite from an Oocyte

An R&B ballad exploring three mechanisms in the female reproductive tract that assist in sperm capacitation and increase the likelihood of the completed maturation of the secondary oocyte (through fertilization) – release of follicular fluid, a temperature gradient between structures, and the secretion of chemo-attractants.

Lyrics:

This has been years in the making, baby

At least for me

We know its never a guarantee

But tonight its just you and me

If we got together

What could we be?

Well come over to my place and

Lets see

Okay so you came

All this way

Wouldn’t be a shame

If we didn’t meet up

Didn’t link up

Baby keep up

Can you find me?

This is your invite

Courtesy of an oocyte

This is your invite

Courtesy of an oocyte

We gotta make sure you’re ready

Hold steady

Gotta get capacitated

Before anything else can be initiated

Don’t worry

Imma send you some follicular fluid

Help you to facilitate

Get your head on straight

Open ion gates

Meanwhile you gotta find me

Gotta long way to go

Past the cervix to the uterus

But I ain’t there, no

I’m in the ampulla

Didn’t mean to fool ya

It’s just your luck

We’re gonna meet in the oviduct

This is your invite

Courtesy of an oocyte

This is your invite

Courtesy of an oocyte

Feel the heat, feel the heat

Let your flagella beat, beat

I put up the thermostat

Hopin’ you can follow that

So you don’t have to double tap

I’ve been releasing some progesterone

Wanna set the tone

Let you know you’re not alone

Hope you can smell it bae

Hope you can find your way

You’re getting closer

Wanna close the deal today

This is your invite

Courtesy of an oocyte

This is your invite

Courtesy of an oocyte

It’s nice to see ya

Glad you made it here

So I won’t have to disappear

I could shed a tear

Wanted to see you boo

Hope you can break through

My corona radiata, so that we can fuse

This has been years in the making, baby

At least for me

Know its never a guarantee

But tonight you found me

Tonight you found me.

The Anatomy and Physiology of the Female Reproductive System

Using air dry clay and acrylic paint I created a physical model of the female reproductive system as my project. I wanted to build a visual aid that could not only help me, but everyone else, better understand how the structure of the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and uterus directly relate …

A Quick Video About Lactose Intolerance

https://studio.youtube.com/video/MfbcUr05bbE/ This is the link to my STEAM Project video, really briefly explaining the effects of lactose intolerance! (My essay is much more detailed on why these side effects actually happen, etc.) It’s so amazing to me how our bodies are made to heal themselves, even though diseases do come. …

Total Proctocolectomy with Permanent Ileostomy

I focused on the digestive system, specifically what a digestive system looks like and how it functions after a total proctocolectomy with a permanent ileostomy. A total proctocolectomy involves removing the large intestine, colon, and rectum. An ileostomy is when the terminal ileum is brought through an incision in the …
