morning!

Good *morning*!

It's 5:08am PST and I haven't slept.

Actually, I spent from 11pm to 1am because there was a power outage here, and I had nothing to do but sleep. (My laptop batteries had run out, haha)

I left my room light *on*, and when the power came back at 1am, the light woke me up.

I've been up ever since writing this paper about renal artery aneurysms. I hope my PI is happy 🙂

whoa Shemarty you are intense

 

[Dr Lyss]

That's hilarious, they even made a book of it.

LOVE it! The site and the book are hysterical

 

[Myuu]

Good morning, everyone!

It's the last week of February. 2009 is flying by!

I knew I was forgetting something!

Well at least you're smiling about it!🙂

Morning, everyone!😀

 

[shemarty]

I actually have a really long day ahead, so I wont be smiling at 10pm tonight.

10am-12pm: one-on-one makeup session for MCAT student.
3-6pm: running training session for bio lab TAs.
6:30-8pm: princeton review mcat publicity event.
8-10pm: another one-on-one makeup session for a second MCAT student.

I just sent my PI an incomplete draft, but I'm *still* awake, and I have to "get up" in 3 hours, and then I have a 12 hour long day. Maybe I can nap between noon and 3pm.

Gah.

 

[aznb0y129]

Morning guys! I got back from my snowboarding trip late last night, so I didn't get a chance to check in. I'm a little battered and bruised today, but it was a fun trip nonetheless. I'll try and catch up on stuff that I missed 🙂

Gah.

Yeah, you should totally nap! Maybe by then you'll be tired enough to fall asleep immediately and wake up pseudo-refreshed.🙁

good morning everyone! looks im starting the new week on 5.5 hours of sleep.. it could be worse right? 3am to 830 am isnt thhattt terrible lol
my friends and i put in a joint victoriassecret order since we are going away on spring break together. the package came this weekend so after we pick it up, we're gonna have a blast trying it all on. lol

 

[aznb0y129]

haha, if only i was that cool

WHAT! i 😍dogs, how could anyone hate dogs.

Dogs >> cats, IMHO

Haha, you are in the same boat as I am. I am very slowly venturing into the world of cooking. Tentatively.

Gotta love those scrambled egg sandwiches though. So tasty.

Best. Breakfast. Ever.

Which brings up a rant: vending machines. SO expensive. Obviously vending machine folk have to make money but... and even more frustrating is that I spend so much money there personally. That I can do something about.

We got to the lodge around midnight on Friday and we were really hungry but all the restaurants were closed, so we were trying to raid the vending machines. My friend put in a dollar for a Butterfinger and it didn't get stuck, the coil didn't even SPIN 😱 Evil machines...

Do you guys have Costco where you guys live?

Yup. There's also something called BJ's Wholesale Club which is very similar.

My problem is that, once it's clean, I never spend the time to keep it clean so everything just piles up until it's overwhelmingly messy.

Ugh, first day of my new work hours (8:30 am to 4:30 pm). At least I'll get out earlier!

[funkydrmonkey]

Hello everyone.... It has stopped raining for the time being, so I need to take advantage of it and go running!

 

[olemissbabydoc]

Morning!

 

[aznb0y129]

anyone else getting a new computer for medical school? i really need a new one (the one at my apt with mr. ar is about 6 years old! eek!!)

Me too. Thinking about a Lenovo or Dell.

😉 or choose porn sites wisely 😉

FTW

I was just wondering... what else do you guys do when you are on SDN? Do you go on other websites, or do you just read the threads on SDN, or are you playing video games while on it?

Email or random web surfing.

my phone broke, i need to go buy a new one

Sorry blues 🙁

[olemissbabydoc]

I'm hoping to get in a run tonight - it depends on how late my class goes.

Work, tutoring, and class. Ugh.

 

[bluesmd]

i'm hungry but i not at home to get food and no money 🙁

I'm totally jealous of you guys being able to run during the week!

Any free lunches/social gatherings going on nearby?

 

[olemissbabydoc]

Sad.

Back at work. I think they are running the A/C. Did I mention its freezing outside.

Nope. And she's 67 already.

 

[Myuu]

I'm a lab tech working at a government basic science lab.👍

Lately, I've been trying to leave earlier though. Mostly, I think I greatly overestimate my capacity to get things done.

[aznb0y129]

I hate "hella"

Agreed, it just sounds stupid.

Your post/day must be crazy.

I thought I was fairly high with ~8.75.

Mine is like 6. I suck 🙁

NBC shows= Heroes and The Biggest Loser, The Office, 30 Rock.
ABC shows= Brothers & Sisters, Desperate Housewives, Scrubs

Then there are the hulu shows: Family Guy, South Park, How I Met your Mother, It's always sunny...and many more. I can't remember all of them. 😛

Fixed.

 

[SDN2013]

[aznb0y129]

hey everyone how's it going! oscars tonight

Yay for slumdog!

i'm hosting a gathering tonight! quiche, mini-burgers, tomato mozzerella salad, spinach and artichoke dip, hummus, pesto, pico de gallo, chips, bread

(drool)

I love funnel cakes, which I haven't had in ages, and brownies.

I make sure to get one every time I visit my buddy (he lives near Seaside Heights).

It's ok - I don't do illegal stuff either. ever. except I did get a speeding ticket once...

Never tried anything illegal either, but I got a ticket for running a red light once.

Yay, I'm all caught up now 🙂

 

[funkydrmonkey]

Wow, not exercising consistently for the past month has made me really out of shape... after two miles I had to call it quits...🙁

Oh well, that just means I have to go to the gym later tonight....

Oh and Myuu... wow, that is a crazy schedule..😱

It's a lot nicer now! I quit volunteering Saturdays two weeks ago.👍👍😀

 

[olemissbabydoc]

I get two months off. I'm looking forward to it! 🙂

 

[funkydrmonkey]

I quit volunteering when I got my first acceptance😳 which is why I have no updates to send for my update letters post waitlist, and as a result, I do not think I have a good chance of getting off the waitlists... Oh well I have an amazing acceptance, and I could not be happier😀

 

[chad5871]

VCU has a new president-elect.

Old (Eugene Trani, VCU President for 19 years):

New (Michael Rao):

I wonder if they're trying to make their "image" younger...

 

[bluesmd]

Same here. To be honest, towards the end, I wasn't really getting a hell of a lot out of it anyway, so I decided to save the 4 hours on Saturday afternoon 😛

I just ended up upping the hours for research instead...

 

[vadd0]

Today I am going to apply for graduation! Holy Moly!

 

[olemissbabydoc]

Yay, Graduation Vadd!

 

[drizzt3117]

ugh, </3 for having to spend $100 to buy textbooks 6 weeks into the semester 🙁

 

[drizzt3117]

Also, I'm always amazed by the X vs Y school threads this time of year lol I thought it was bad during my cycle but it seems significantly worse this year

 

[olemissbabydoc]

Yuck! I ordered one textbook last week, but it's not here yet. Class tonight.. fun.

Oh well, at least I wont really need it.

This amuses me as well. I feel really bad for the non-accepted yet people who are watching others get input on deciding between "Harvard and Hopkins", etc.

Yeah... well the kinda cool thing about our school is that textbooks aren't required, although they are useful, so that helps keep costs low, however, we have to get new modules every block... grr.
