It's not relevant to a school you're considering...and I think you would have seen it for yourself if you'd visited. The city/school are an acquired taste...even most of the people that live there don't like it.

I'm definitely not making fun of anyone's religion and my feelings about Islam have NOTHING to do with any political convictions. Believe you me, there's no fun involved when you read the kind of notes this person posts -- incredibly, incredibly disturbing, IMO. Also, I'm also not saying the Christianity (for example) is a superior religion -- I'm sure there are parts of the Bible that could be interpreted in a way that would also make most people's hair stand on end.

But the point is, I'm not a big fan of the whole insult to the freedoms women have in Western cultures. No, I never said the US was the best place on the planet. But to actually portray the people in the US as EVIL? To diminish the importance of the freedoms I have in the US -- to pursue a career, to get a safe abortion, to have my religious beliefs respected, whatever? Very uncool.

For the first point... gotcha😉

For the second points... I agree... it is completely wrong to portray and stereotype people...and to mark people as evil is wrong... and 2/3 freedoms are actually allowed... which is why I said that it is stupid people's interpretation that makes specific portions of religion seem wrong...

aww.. thanks. but my reason is different.. columbia used to me top choice and I love EVERYTHING about that school except location. I need to get out of uptown manhattan.. 4 years is enough, but damn i love columbia's new curriculum...

yeah and CSPS (or whatever the acronym is) is even further uptown than the undergrad campus, right? By like 50 streets?

how did that happen? i think that's a story worth sharing with the class of 2013ers.. 😉

I was just talking with pianola about this on fb (I added you btw)

I did my postbac at Scripps College which is one of the Claremont Colleges, and happens to be an all girls school. The class is 15 people and has variable amounts of men/women, sometimes it's heavily male, mine happened to be very much not so, haha
 
I've returned from church and am settled in my favorite Victoria's Secret sweats on the couch for the remainder of the afternoon.

Must...read...for...class...tomorrow... 😴
 
I added peanut butter to my sapghetti and chicken breast with marinara sauce, and it tasted amazing.
 
Hey I am filling out fafsa and was wondering anyone included application payments somewhere within it.

No I did not... but if it applies to you, why not? But I know nothing about money and taxes, so my advice is probably not the most trustworthy...
 
I didn't either. I'm deathly afraid of making mistakes when it comes to taxes, so I had the accountant do my taxes and then transferred the info directly off my returns.
 
what's up guys!!!

So my mp3 player just stopped working (Sansa 4GB). Do you guys have any suggestions as to what kind of mp3 player I should get next? Keep in mind it needs to be small enoungh so I can wear it around my arm while working out...and I can't stand cumbersome objects hanging from me...especially while I am working out (unless I need to for a particular workout...like weighted pullups...but that is different).

Any suggestions? Thanks guys!!!

Is this in all of Richmond?

Oh and 75 degree weather for us here on the other side of the country.
Click to expand...

I'll probably be on the higher end of that estimate since I live in Ashland (~15 miles north of Richmond) and Richmond will be on the lower end of the estimate.

I hope the doctor is open tomorrow - I really need to be able to make it to my appointment. If they're not open I'll probably just have to go to the ER. 🙁

Oh and riceman, get an iPod Nano!

Hehe, I passed by Ashland when we were going on I-95 N to DC😀

And that really bites about being sick... are you okay? Will you still be able to make it to your Nicaragua Mission Trip?
 
Okay, study break is over... paper time again...

iPod nano or shuffle... I have the old school 8g black ipod nano and love it. It's great with the elastic band that goes around your bicep. It's on my fb profile pic if you can see that.

My brother is watching Star Wars Episode III... great, my productivity level has just gone down...
 
then it looks like I am gradually converting to an apple freak...So after looking at the specs I am going to purchase an ipod nano...then this summer I am going to purchase an iphone so that I will have time to get used to it and all of its applications before school starts in the fall

I guess by the end of summer I might purchase a thinkpad....😱😱😱
 
Here are some paintings that I have found depicting medical students

I'll be okay. It's not getting better, but it's not getting worse... I don't want to say exactly what symptoms I'm having (so that people aren't tempted to give medical advice! :nono:) but it's something that definitely needs to get checked out. I may or may not be able to make it on my mission trip, which really sucks. We'll see what the doctor says tomorrow.

In other news, FAFSA and NeedAccess are done!

I thought the 7 line went right to AECOM (Pelham Park Bay or whatever)?

7 line runs from Flushing to Times Square. You're thinking of the 5 train.

Lentils with garlic and onions, fish and rice... healthy and delicious! A few years ago I would have thrown a tantrum if this were for dinner, but now I love it! It is odd how tastes change... I used to also hate bell peppers and onions, but now I cannot get enough... I still cannot get over my disliking of eggplants... although now it is tolerable though...

Agreed on both counts.

Good morning everyone!!

I just wanted to let you all know that I am going to be posting a little less than usual the next couple days. I'm so close to 5,000 and I want my 5,000th post to be about my news from Columbia! :xf: :luck:

EDIT: WOO HOO! Over the TOP!

you're right... my NYC subway topography is all off right now 🙁
 
Hey drizz are there opportunities to do away rotations in Australia/New Zealand? It is not looking like I will get there this summer...so I was wondering if there are opps to get there while in med school.

Thanks
