Class of 2013!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
which spawns a topic for discussion: what luxuries are you lookong forward to affording as an attending?

For me? A maid and at least bi-monthly massages.

Eventually, a part-time nanny. I want to raise my kids myself but I know i'll need some trusted help for the shuffling around to dance, soccer, etc. An all-in-one maid, cook, nanny would be best.

discuss. what luxuries are you looking forward to?
a nanny, a cook & vacationing... massages would be nice too now that I think about it 😀
 
I hope everyone has a relaxing Sunday! See ya later!
 
i am stuck. i have to do work, but i just want to chill and do nothing. so i am sitting here contemplating which is more important i.e. wasting my time :laugh:
 
Good morning y'all!!!!

I hope everyone is doing well.

I'm amped...b/c I am getting ready to travel again...I'll be back in Philly tomorrow night!

Best wishes to everyone!!!! 😀
 
looks like we've got a severe case of senioritis/im in med school and no longer care-itis, blues.

I understand. And I'm thankful I went for a slow year in between graduation and med school.

who wouldve known that I'd be thankful for a big rejection last year?
 
I just love it when [insert test prep company name here] makes me defend their totally BS questions and even worse BS answers.

Seriously, do they even have people read over this crap before they make us spew it out to the masses?

How much would it REALLY cost to hire a copy editor of some kind?

GEEEEZUS. I just love looking stupid in front of a class that has just said:

"I don't think you can get that answer from anywhere in the paragraph."

/end rant.

And that's why I decided not to work as a test prep instructor!👍
 
I'll be in NYC and he will be in NJ. But considering we were 4 hours away before, we are ecstatic to be so close. We are hoping he gets accepted to a law school in NYC eventually so he can be even closer.




Idk kids are a pain in my ass haha jk. I think it's because I'm very motherly and I've been looking forward to starting a family for years BUT at the same time I love my independence and know from experience that life as you know it ends as soon as you say you are pregnant. so I'm conflicted. I think it's also my parents are pretty young (they were married at 18 and had me at 23) & my bf's parents are older so he wants to be younger parents. Sorry that's such a long convoluted answer!

aww... you guys sound wonderful.
HaHa you just missed me but we can commiserate next time we are on. Your post is exactly how I feel. I see my friends getting married or engaged (some even having kids!) but we both knew what we were getting into & this will be one of the many sacrifices of being a doctor. It would make no sense to propose, especially if you can't guarantee you will be together at school. Your gf is just probably nervous because you and she both know that med school is like a relationship food processor 😀 I know I'm terrified hehe. If you wanna get her a really nice anniversary present get her a decently priced promise ring. She'll have something shiny to show her friends & you can show her that you aren't going anywhere without actually proposing (not that you need a ring to do this obviously) -or- write her a beautiful card haha. Me and my bf did long distance and if you hang on & do whatever it takes to support each other you will make it through. If you really want to be married & be together for the rest of your life, then there is no rush to do it prematurely! I'm sure Mrs Spurs 100% understands. she sounds like a cool girl 😉


i am impressed that you could do a long distance relationship... i dont think i could do it.. :scared:
also, chad, a beautiful card AND some jewelry might do the trick.. 😉
Thanks! 😀

Ms. Chad & I are going to hang out and watch some TV this afternoon.

I was so excited to come back to our apartment today.. and i get back around 430 and its empty 🙁 apparently my bf is spending the day in a different borough with his cousins...
🙁

eh long distance relationships are not the greatest but they aren't necessarily the death wish that everyone expects... but thats only IF you have a good foundation & can communicate. Hey, distance makes the heart grow fonder right? I think of it as paying your dues hehe
 
Yes I like PR too. I basically have a slight obsession with reality tv - I love all reality tv because I think the interpersonal relationships are interesting and it's fun to judge people (that are willing to be judged). 😀


really?? cmon chad, i thought you were better than that!! 😛 But seriously, realitiy TV? 99% of those shows are garbage and completely and totally rigged/fixed.

p.s. hi everyone!!!

i am stuck. i have to do work, but i just want to chill and do nothing. so i am sitting here contemplating which is more important i.e. wasting my time :laugh:

if you are sitting there wasint time, you might as well be watching rugby!! One of my teammates tol us about this sweet website, it has hundres of clips and full length games. I'm in the middle of a new zealand/australia game myself 🙂 www.rugbyzone.com
 
I would like an extra day in my weekend. 🙁
 
Sad faces unite!
lol I'm trying to turn my frown upside down 🙂 I accidentally side swiped my brothers car in the drive way last night and he's PISSED. His car is less than a year old and I scratched it pretty good. As if that wasn't bad enough, right after my fender bender I was driving to a friends house & my phone died. i got lost and had to find a radio shack & ask for them to charge my cell so I could call for directions! It was a mess! But it is a new day 🙂
 
anyone watching the simpsons? new simpsons and american dad on tonight 🙂

Oh boo. That's no fun at all. Yeah I guess my weekend probably wasn't that bad. I shouldn't complain (I will save that for next weekend probably 😉).

You're right. It's a new evening. And I have new homework to get to! 😛

I want to look at the glossy pages of my medical school texts already...

I just finished reading about 290 pages for last week in my two classes in order to be 'caught up'. Another 290 for this week!
 
Why did I major in chem??

Physical chem is getting on my freakin nerves...crazy ass problems, long ass lab reports every week...it sucks!

roomate took it last semester. does not look like even remotely interesting or fun to learn in any way shape or form.
 
Bad week. Missed out on another round of Mayo acceptances, and a silent waitlist at WashU.

As such, I am dedicating my 1000th post to SDN Class of 2013 thread. (to be honest, I'm just sicking of deleting posts)
 
More importantly, why are you taking PChem now?
we only offer it once a year, and last spring i had a couple of otherhardcore classes. The curriculum is also designed sothat you take pchem senior year.
