Class of 2013!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
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

Umm... maybe, I think every school is different when it comes to away rotations. I know that someone from my program did an away rotation at Cambridge, so I'm sure you COULD do it in Australia/NZ if you got in touch with the departments and set it up. The thing is that those aren't exactly your usual global health destinations, but certainly I'm sure you could do it if you wanted to.
 
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.
+1. I have the video nano (8g no color screen) that I put around my bicep using a band.

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.
Me too. I just did not know if that could have been an itemized deduction
 
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!

you're right... my NYC subway topography is all off right now 🙁

+1



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



:laugh:



Agreed on both counts.



Good luck Chad! Awesome TOP btw, a whole movie about arm-wrestling :laugh:



iPod Nano FTW!
👍

BTW, why is the female reproductive system so complicated...
 
what is everybody cooking/eating for dinner?

I'm getting ready to bake chicken, a whole yam, and steam some veggies

my mom gave me this awesome I idea to make a good wine reduction sauce for the chicken:

1. sear the chicken in a pan with a small amt of olive oil just to brown it (don't)
2. add shallots and garlic...but do not burn them
3. take the chicken out when it is 1/4 - 1/3 cooked...place in baking ware (glass ware) and bake at 350 degrees
4. add 1.75 cups of white whine/chardonnay...this will get all the tasty bits stuck to the pan...set to simmer
5. to the simmering liquid add 3/4 cup of water and some chicken bouillon (this will help thicken the sauce and add a little more flavor)
6. strain the shallots and garlic out of the sauce and add to the bake ware with the chicken
7. cook chicken until tender

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so awesome!!!!!!

Fish curry with kichri ( a combination of lentils and rice).... basically what I ate yesterday except cooked in the exact opposite style...

that sounds good. what kind of curry?...yellow, red, green.
What kind of fish? I am trying to incorporate more fish into my diet but most fish is still too fishy for me...i.e. salmon, chilean sea bass, etc...

how do you make that dish?
 
I think my mom is making tilapia! Sometimes having your parents living in the same city is a good thing 😀

My version of chicken teriyaki

Yeah, I mean clearly it explains a lot... but 100 slides just about hormones? FML
Sorry. I've just had a lot to deal with because of mrs. face, so I couldn't help myself.
Anyway, good luck with that, it sounds like this block is a whopper

I dunno... it involves onions, garlic, paprika, oil, fish, tamarind, bay leaves, a lot of spices and something else.... my mom cooks for me, so I have no idea😳
I finally started studying. Pianola...are you getting any work done?
Hey berk!
Awww that's so nice of them! As long as your parents aren't too close, it's nice.
Why, I like coming home on the weekends...
yeah 🙂 I study at home sometimes, it's a nice quiet, relaxing place to study!
I usually can not get too much studying done at home

Ms. face or Mrs. face?

Heh. I had to eat dinner just now, Berken...

Yeah, yeah, I'm getting on it.

I'm about halfway through with the material.

But it's the epi class, remember?

Bulletin: "the Baseline level is the "amount usually present in the community. The 'expected level.'"

Never would have guessed THAT now would you?

It's not too bad... just this particular topic is complicated and I want to make sure I have it nailed. Definitely easier than last block!

yumm that sounds like it is tasty.
You'd think I would get it right once in a while.
 
A lot of people on SDN seem really touchy today on various threads (not this one)

Good luck on your epi test!
 
Because females are complicated and make no sense in general. It just seems fitting that their reproductive system follows suit.
I decided not to be so blunt, but in retrospect that was a bad idea.
 
Complicated like a Leonardo Da Vinci painting. 😉
 
Hmm, I think I have maybe a 1% understanding of it now, 99% to go!
 
i am not feeling well 🙁 i have been headachey and naseous all week long. and taking naps and i never take naps unless i'm sick. i just want to be better so that i can work out and have fun!

I vote medicinal marijuana, lol


No, I hope you feel better.
 
Leave the bluntness up to me, haha.

Just try not to get banned 😀

They're running an SNL special on NBC, the Best of Will Ferrell. They just showed the Celebrity Jeopardy sketch with Sean Connery, Sharon Osbourne, and Bill Cosby.
