Class of 2013!!!

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

I am feeling much better. I had an acute case of colitis and a low grade infection in the colon. Also I got a new digital camera (MSRP $350 Canon Digital Elph for $110 at Circuit City blowout sale).

Bad news:

I didn't have a Hepatitis A vaccine for my trip to Nicaragua (which they didn't tell me I needed until now, even though it takes 2-4 weeks to become effective once injected 😡)- which means I'm going to have to be REALLY careful down there so I don't contract it. 🙁
Be careful down there.

I'm honestly more of a liquor person myself. Margaritas are my personal favorite, probably cuz they make the best here in Texas 🙂 Plus, they usually make them in a way that they don't look girly, which definitely helps 😛
light beers<dark beer<jack/johnny coke=gin & tonic=tequila. I'm sure it does help, though it would be funny having a JD in the class of 2013...appletinis:laugh:
 
I think I'm more of a RBV person when I go out, but I enjoy a lot of different types of drinks. I like margaritas too, there are a few good places for them here.

It kind of alternates between ridiculous drought and torrential downpours; we've been mired in a drought for the last year and a half or so, but these usually somehow tend to get broken by several weeks-months where it'll rain 2-3 times/week. So it just depends on the year. We do usually get some pretty good thunderstorms in the spring, though.
 
hmm my day -s tarting from noon:

pointe
euro history
cosmology
gym
lunch/dinner
chill! lol
 
wow i did write 2002th didnt i? how about i fix that lol
 
Going for a run, take a nap at some point, go to my night class. That's about it, I'm going to have a lazy day (again).

Gotta love those chillaxin days before med school 🙂
 
How about I ran EIGHT (8) miles tonight guys?!

WOW. ME?! No way.... (but way...)

Awesome! I'm still working on getting to two.

Nope... no background, not even the shape of the freaking blot... Yes it does suck...

Not even marker(s)?

No, my PI said it did not matter... I guess it did... plus I was kind of lazy and did not want to make the standard curve for the bradford... Yup I wasted two days because I was too lazy to do something that would take only one hour...

Is BCA a no-go?

Thanks guys

And no need to be jealous of lil old me. I have no idea why I have been so lucky this year but I'm not complaining! This definitely throws a wrench in my relatively straight forward plans for next year!

I hope your grandma does better.🙁

Congrats on your curability and your new toy! Good luck not catching HepA!👍

Gym
Lunch
Run Gel
Mole Bio Lecture
Transfer Gel
Mole Bio Seminar
Finish Gel/Clean up

I'll be running aorund all day. I hate this semester 🙁
 
*sigh* Time for class. I'm probably going to skip my second class today to study for a test I have later in the day that I didn't study nearly enough for last night...
 
oh, and I have to treat/harvest/protein assay the next set of experiments too.
 
WHEW! I finally got a chance to sit down after running between two patients on two DIFFERENT studies this morning.

What's going on?
 
oo i think ill go to the gym today after cosmology.. apparently the strider burns soo many calories! lol
also, i am sitting on some really good news but im trying to hold it in until we get the official, official word... 🙂
 
Good morning everybody. How goes it?

You have a cosmology class?? I'm jealous!:laugh:

Well then, unofficial congrats to you.:laugh:
 
Good morning everybody. How goes it?

Good morning! I'm pretty good today with an afternoon schedule of paperwork, gels, and three hours of photography goodness this evening. It is currently 29F, with a high of 36F.:laugh: (Note: this is alarmingly cold for the DC area in February--it was a whole 7F overnight!!)

How are you doing?🙂

Ooh yeah be careful about HepA. I'm sure the doctor told you it's a foodborne illness...🙁

I had a dream that Columbia sent me a letter that went something like this:

Dear pianola,

We really think that you'd make an excellent physician, a really good one. That's why we want you to start looking into UVA and UCSD -- if either of these schools accept you, you should go. They are excellent schools and we know you'd be happy there.

What we're actually trying to tell you is that you're not admitted to our class. We're sure you're going to be a great physician but you should really look at some other good schools for your training.

Columbia

(yeah I didn't apply to either UVA or UCSD)
 
Good morning everyone!!!! What happened last night? Was SDN down?

Today's agenda:

1. work..woooooo hooo!!!!...if only I could win the lotto 😀
2. gym - heavy low rep high set and crazy cardio...most likely treadmill or eliptical trainer
3. Medical spanish quiz...ohhhhhhhhhhhhh yeah....I have not studied for it yet but I am not worried since the grammar is ALL review and the vocab is easy
4. Scholarship applications
5. TOP CHEF REUNION!!!!! That's right y'all!!!!

CHAD: Se habla espanol (sin ampersand)? Be careful in Nicaragua...Never had Hep A before, but isn't it easy to catch? Or is that B?

EDIT: I'm all TOPPED OUT for the time being. Is that bad? Someone delete a post so I don't have to assume the TOP DAWG ROLE....I mean I already know in my heart I am THE TOP DAWG...😎😉😉😛😛😉....but this TOP DAWG is tired of topping right now!

Yep... I'm probably going to resort to eating pre-packaged food and bottled water. Fortunately there's a big supermarket between the airport and the town we're going to - I'll just have to buy a bunch of stuff there.

Also about that dream - that's so weird! I've been fortunate enough to be sleeping very well and not having any (positive or negative) dreams about Columbia. I think that in a way it was good for me to get so sick this past week because it's kept me distracted from the waiting!

How are you doing?🙂

Everytime you talk about DC, I get excited. Although coming from California, I dont know how excited I am about 20 degree weather! Haha! I am good though. Still laying in bed. Dont have to be to work until 1045am.

That sounds like it should go in the "Write your own rejection letter" thread 😛

I applied to both and neither accepted me🙁 Stupid waitlists... that is why Texas is better😛

Ouch that sucks. Well, just try to wash your hands obsessively, and you will be fine since HepA is oral fecal route of transmission... And on second thought, maybe you should boil the bottled water and then drink it, just to be on the safe side.
 
Oh yeah, and running 1/2 a mile back from the gym in the cold rain is not fun🙁

Oh well, time to dredge the rain again... I need to get to research...
