Class of 2013!!!

I lived on the Caribbean Island of St. Lucia for 16 months... it is a lot of fun😀

One of the (awesome) guys at work is from there! So laid back!👍

Yep. I traveled all around northern and western India (most recently in 2007), and I found this to be the case everywhere I went. And cheap - 8 tablets of cipro for something like the equivalent of less than $1.

Hang on to that if you ever come down with shigella.:laugh:


...I hate that😡. Korean != Chinese, Mr. Not-funny-quick-make-a-they-all-eat-puppies-joke-now-cause-I'm-a-racist-undergraduate-jerk.👎

:boom:

Some people. Geez.🙁

hungry, blues?

If she wasn't hungry, I am now.:laugh:


Morning!
 
I would worry about counterfeit meds though 🙁


Nah, it's the real thing (as many a cleared up GI infection can attest to!). From what I was told, the World Health Organization distributes antibiotics and other medications to third world countries for free or cheaply. The prices are so cheap because most Indians cannot even remotely afford U.S. prices (and for many, medications are a luxury). As for children selling them, let's just say that safety regulations (in all spheres) in India are somewhat laxer than in the U.S. 😎

Hang on to that if you ever come down with shigella.:laugh:

I sure did! No one at customs was concerned about medications I brought back. Funny story... last fall, I had pneumonia, but it had gone misdiagnosed at my walk-in clinic. I suspected that it was pneumonia, though, so I tried one of the cipro to see if it helped (cipro alleviates the infection temporarily)... and when it did, went back and got the right antibiotic. 😉
 
aww, I hope you get better soon. I don't know what your diagnosis is, but I'll tell you anything is better than mono. After I came down with the symptoms I pretty much slept 15hrs a day for close to 2 months and could not work out. At the time I only had time to eat, go to class, and sleep. 🙁

Can I have some? I usually get the munchies after having a drinking.

Looks like someone had a good time last night :laugh:


Yeah, that's pretty f-ed up. If they were going to be insulting, at least make it funny.

Morning peeps! TGIF!
 
It sure doesn't feel like Friday, it feels like Saturday 🙂

Ugh, curse you young'uns and your senior year of undergrad (shakes fist)

8 hours til the weekend for me! Going to see the late night screening of Watchmen tonight 😀

8 hours for me too, but I don't get any Watchmen.:cry:

Didn't you post in that Watchmen thread that started a few days back? I figured you would be there tonight (or last night, lol) for sure.
 
Morning, everyone!

I'm home "sick" still... My shoulder and neck are still hurting. It's worst in the morning. 🙁 So I'm sitting on phone books to keep my arm at a more comfortable angle.

I can also only sleep in one position, which means in the morning, one side of my face is puffy and swollen. I find this pathetically amusing. :laugh:

Did everyone have a good night?

There's no one around to go with me. :cry: And I don't think it's mom's kind of movie.:laugh:

Good morning! Also, stop hurting yourself/getting sick!
 
Awesome. Now all you have to do is spend six hours in a car to join me. YOU WOULD DO THAT FOR ME RIGHT?!:meanie:

Waitaminute... why am I going down there? I thought you were coming up here! Naturally... 😉

Actually my friend is coming up from DC tomorrow... you could catch a ride with him...

Oh! I just realized this is one of the friends I *gave* the Watchmen to! Maybe we'll go see it together! Sorry, Myuu-chan... m_ _m
Unless you *do* come up 😀
 
Good morning everybody. I will be in the pool today for 8 hrs and the tough part is that I have a patient every hr so I won't be able to get out until I'm done for the day. Oh well. Hope everybody has a blessed and prosperous day today. Hope everybody who is waiting gets some great news today! God bless!
 
I just finished watching Million Dollar Baby. I can't believe how depressing that movie is.

Yeah that's a horribly depressing movie.

Oh in other horrible racial news, I just found out that the KKK organize in a little town about 45 minutes outside of where I live :scared::scared:. Some of the dietetics students in my graduate program were saying that they saw them marching in some of the rural areas where they were doing parts of their internship. :scared::scared::scared: OK, that's actually terrifying.

In other news, today is another day, and another chance for me, anotherface, druzie, and chad to all get acceptances to Columbia :xf::xf:. Let the woman dream, ok? Thanks.
 
Yeah, it's a lonely experience 🙁.

I've never done it for that reason. I feel like if I'm going to actually spend money on a movie (rather than watching it on DVD or Netflix or something), then it should be less about the movie and more about going to see it with friends, family, girlfriend, etc.

:luck::luck::luck::xf::xf::xf::luck::luck::luck: to you guys for Columbia decisions!
 
what up class!!! Good luck to everyone still waiting to hear back...I know the Columbia people are on pins and needles right now.

:luck::xf::luck::xf::luck::xf::luck::xf:
 
This is the type of trance I'm into, though the music you posted isn't half bad.

I don't have exams till the end of the month, we only have them every 4-6 weeks, which has its upsides and downsides. My favorite trance artists/producers are Above & Beyond, The Thrillseekers, Orikdea, Oceanlab, Ronski Speed, Armin van Buuren, etc.
 
There's no one around to go with me. :cry: And I don't think it's mom's kind of movie.:laugh:

hehe I would go with you too Myuu... I haven't gone to a movie since last year! I used to always go to them back in CA but ppl here are busy and prefer doing other things when they have free time! 🙁
 
Yeah, it's a lonely experience 🙁.

It depends, I don't mind going to movies or out to eat at nice dinners by myself sometimes, it can be liberating if you don't do it too often. I think I do the latter much more than the former, because good meals can be expensive especially if you have to pay for two 😀

Hahah, I don't think I'm up for a road trip for a while.:laugh: Have fun! I totally forgive you!:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Has anyone here ever gone to a movie theater by themselves?

What? Such a thing is possible?😕

Yeah that's a horribly depressing movie.

Head a little west from here and they're crawling in the hills and suburbs. 👎thumbdown

Aw, thanks!
 
hmmm, my breakfast/lunch today is entirely liquid...

Mine is entirely frozen.

The antibodies are (hopefully) binding to yesterday's bunch. I'll find out in a couple of hours. Yesterday's antibodies were a new batch I just made, so hopefully they don't suck...:laugh::laugh:

The saved cost won't outweigh the loneliness I feel being alone at those places 🙁:cry:...

Armin van Buuren is my favorite producer by far. I like the themes in Imagine; the classical/trance songs are something. I used to like above and beyond and oceanlab, but my play list consists mostly of AVB, Mark Schulz, Arnej, and Orjan Nilsen.

In the -80? 😱

What animal were they from? 😀

hehe, it's definitely more lonely being at a movie theater alone, at least IMO. I always thought it was kinda cool to eat at nice restaurants by myself, partially because I did it a lot as a consultant and could expense it 😀

good stuff, I need to listen to more AVB. My favorite tracks are always female vocal trance, though! I think Sirens of the Sea is my favorite musical track of all time.

🙁🙁🙁, I cannot do that. Just thinking about that makes me feel 🙁, even though I'm not usually like that.

Agreed. It wasn't the least bit funny/clever.



Here's my contribution of the morning! I'm loving this song *and* video. (Aussie band The Presets)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNgOuXepPsA
Its not quite my style, though it reminds me of Depeche Mode, which I used to like.

Oh, no. My lunch is (hopefully) at 4, but it was previously in the freezer at home.:laugh:

Yesterday's were mouse anti-shigella sonnei LPS.👍 Today I probe with goat anti-mouse IgG.👍👍

I love it 👍
 
Guys I have a question: Ok I'll shoot!...😀

I am still waiting to hear back from my dream schools (should hear within the next 1 to 3 weeks...:xf::xf::xf::xf::xf::luck:), but I am also on waitlists at a few schools that I would also love to attend. A couple of these schools have explicitly stated they DO NOT want any other supporting documents sent (including LOI's); however, I have heard that in the past people have personally called and made contact with the dean/asst dean of admissions.

If I were interested is pursuing this route how would I initiate communication with the dean without being so forward about my status?

Thanks guys...I'm really trying hard not to think about all of this...but it is hard not to get overwhelmed by it. Best of luck to all of you guys as well!!!!

Maybe two a days in the gym will help!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Yes most of his vocal trance/progressive songs with female vocalists are great songs.

Later
 
Myuu they are showing Dr. Horrible on the View hahahaha! Nathan Fillion is visiting.

My fav track on imagine was in and out of love, which was good, but Sharon adel is no loona 🙂 I saw the thrillseekers and above and beyond at ministry of sound last summer in London
 
A good 5.15 mile run, finished off with a warm shower and a breakfast of cheerios and milk... Everything was perfect except the milk was lukewarm because my roommate left it out😡

Actually, this one is some proprietary thing we got from... somewhere. It's monoclonal. We actually have monoclonal cultures as well, but they were made back in "the day." Haven't had to purify one of those in a while, though.👍
