First

To my fellow SDNers...

As we approach the all-time reply record for the School Specific forum (currently held by the now-closed Univ. of Arizona thread at 2994) AND The 3000th Post, I thought I would should lay down some ground rules:

I don't care about the 3000th post. I want the 10,000th post. 😎

Second

I am looking for interesting things to do in Cleveland the weekend of the 8th. If anybody knows of interesting things going on, please let me know! Also, does anyone have the scoop on good museums to hit up while in town?

Thanks!

Well, the most famous one is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. MOCA (the art museum) is also a good choice. The Botanical Gardens is nice, though not so much this time of year. But if you want a funky museum that's of interest to premeds and won't be on the typical Cleveland museum junket, try Dittrick Medical History museum, which is in the Allen library on the Case campus. If they're still running the contraception exhibit, it's a little scary and pretty cool at the same time. Plus, it's free.

I'm getting there at 1 Sunday and really want to see the town and hear more about the school. What do you guys recommend I do that afternoon - on my own if I can't find someone to take me under their feathery wing?

See above. Except for the Rock and Roll Hall, they're all on or near the Case campus.

On a completely different subject, I got an email asking for votes to help the Case emergency department win research money from a video competition, so I figured I'd post the link here too in case some of you have time and want to help Case win. They're in fourth place right now out of 12 finalists. If you want to help, go to this site and vote for Case. You can vote more than once, and you can vote every day until the competition ends on January 22.

I saw no accusations there...shall we take this as an admission of guilt?

...and to answer your question LTTP back on page 50...yes! Yes, I did see that.

Yup, pretty sure you can say that most cities aren't Detroit.👍

 

[Myuu]

Also, did you find a student host?

 

[Auriga]

No! I'm desperately going through the lists and making sure I emailed them all right now >_< and calling hotels but $$$ wow

🙁 Ok...now that I'm on my way out of Detroit...I'm getting sentimental...boxing up stuff today in fact....

On the other hand....
It's the only reason people knew I was dead serious when I said I'd move to Cleveland in a heartbeat for med school...

Don't worry, you'll get over it. I'll warn you though that you better keep your mouth shut when people make anti-blue jokes. Never forget that you are greatly outnumbered by fans of THE Ohio State U.

Ha, wow! Cleveland actually looks pretty good during the summer. It's our sunless winters that people rather dislike.

This made me smile.

Happy New Year's Day everyone!! It's 2010 that is. This is the year of the tiger (zodiac) they say. Let everybody's lives filled with courage and confidence, and we all soon will be in med school somewhere living our dreams!!! 😉

 

[Auriga]

Yes, happy new year!!!

I got a fortune cookie the other day that said "All the hard work you have done will soon pay off" may that be true for us all!

The Chinese character on mine said "Doctor" 😀

 

[brooklynblunder]

I got one that said, "you look pretty".

 

[Myuu]

I got one that said, "you look pretty".

I got one while I was still a CpE major saying "your future is not what it appears to be."

 

[CCLCMer]

I got one that said, "You like Chinese food." Like, wow. How did they know so much about me?

 

[Myuu]

They've been watching you for a long time now, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.😏

I got this strange one recently...can somebody help me figure out what it means? 😕

 

[Myuu]

Probably has something to do with the coffee being terrible in Detroit.

 

[CCLCMer]

Good thing you got into med school in the Cleve.

So wait....you love Chinese food too? They know way too much about us all. 😱

I can't believe that the high tomorrow is 17 degrees. That's just ridiculous. I hope the roads are clear at least.

 

[vc7777]

It will be 10 tonight in Detroit I think...

 

[Myuu]

I'll leave a parasol out for you down here.

[vc7777]

Argh! Have to put kiddies to bed now! What timing! You guys pay off my children?


Hahah...CCLCMer yours said you LIKE chinese food... whereas I LOVE chinese food....

 

[CCLCMer]

That's why I'm so svelte.

 

[Latetotheparty]

That's why I'm so svelte.

Svelte is one of my favorite words.

 

[CCLCMer]

Svelte is one of my favorite words.

How awesome would it be to have a fortune cookie that says, "Latetotheparty, you are so svelte."

 

[CCLCMer]

 

[CCLCMer]

3000!

 

[Latetotheparty]

How awesome would it be to have a fortune cookie that says, "Latetotheparty, you are so svelte."

I would stop eating fortune cookies in order for that to be the last fortune I ever received.

Ah, but I never agreed to be bound by his commandments. 😀

Edit: He IS going to make a fuss about it though, isn't he?

 

[Myuu]

Do I need to start deleting people's posts for them?

Hey now, I cheated my way into the 3000th post fair and square. 😡

Nice! 👍

hahaha...isn't is a beautiful thing? too much chatter on the thread to find anything useful?


I think some people have successfully called the UP office and requested an earlier interview schedule to allow them to get to the airport on time. But I think you should be good

you should be fine. but remember, the admissions office is totally nice and easy to talk to if you have a burning question such as this! I'd suggest calling them anyway and seeing when your day will end just to make sure.
