Class of 2013!!!

yeah, I think it has something to do with my running. the morning after a long run I wake up with this dull achey headache that stays all day. must be lack of oxygen or something during the run. I'm going to have to experiment with solutions (using inhaler before the run, nsaids before, etc). its not dehydration, but could be overhydration I suppose.. I drink a couple bottles of water during/after.

Its frustrating because I love running.
 
Hey LET! So where are you going for school?
 
BD - LET got this AMAZING scholarship to Vandy. Don't you jus feel lucky to know her? 😍

WOW! That is an awesome blessing!!! Thats wassup! I do feel lucky, man!
 
😳 aw thanks guys. Yeah, trust me, I'm the one who's unbelievably lucky. It's sort of surreal. On the other hand, I can focus allllll my energies now on hoping for the very best for you, BD!!!

Oh LET, your too kind! I appreciate the thoughts!
 
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... 🙂
Why the use of we? Is this about P&S? Did you make your honors designation? Have you won the lottery?

Ok now I'm just throwing stuff out there.
 
I wish I could enjoy next quarter instead of worrying about graduating with distinction. My project is not where I want it to be, and since there are no set standards, I expect too much out of it.
Then scrap it. No point working on a thesis if it doesn't fill you with joy.
 
Speaking of which, isn't it sad that it's toolish to wear scrubs to places other than anatomy lab? They're so very very comfy...and don't look as ridiculous as flannel pj's with rubber duckies on them...
Today I saw a man walking around an office building wearing scrubs that had MGH emblazoned on them in big, black letters.

I do not work at MGH.
 
I need advice from my 2013ers. I have been looking forward to my Cornell second look weekend since December (I know I'm a loser :d) ... but I'm also interested in going to Pitt's second look weekend which is THE SAME (duh duh DUUUH). very dramatic. Not sure what to do... Pay the money & check out Pitt or stay in NYC & rely on my interview impression for Pitt.
Will Pitt pay for transportation? If yes, if I had to pick, would choose Pitt. It's a given that NYC is awesome, so you should check out what it would be like to be a Pitt student.

Hahaha oh yeah the MGH scrubs are really intense, I remember them from when I did work there. I never stole a pair cause I thought the huge lettering was a little too prison-chic.

Classy of whomever was wearing them by the way...

I agree. I'd actually almost rather go to the school I'm not really planning on going to, that way you can give it a really fair shot. And who knows, maybe you'll fall for it! You have already hyped Cornell up in your head for a while, might as well look at how much you'd like another place....

great question! I have to find that out now...

Was I the only one who learned what MGH was from a medical school interviewer talking about it and comparing how it's more practical to have horses than zebras during medical school education?

Honestly, I only knew of two major hospitals as a college student: Mayo and Cleveland Clinic.

this is very true. I'm almost scared to fall in love with it because it's so far away... but options never hurt anybody! I know my family & my bf support me no matter what I choose... although I know deep down my bf is probably hoping and praying I pick NY.
 
I have invested a few months of benchtime and a few months of paper reading and planning though. I do not want all that to be in vain.
Fair enough. Very few of the science majors I knew seemed to be getting any enjoy out of doing one, which helped with my decision (even though I had already spent several months of bench time) 😀 I do what I want!

It's probably a bit regional. Although it is Man's Greatest Hospital 😀

He also happened to mention to a group that he and his wife hold 5 board certifications between them.

He really didn't seem like a bad guy, but out of context it is pretty amusing. :laugh:

Well, Pittsburgh isn't THAT far from New York City. It's a really short flight and weekend trips would be totally doable.
 
I honestly did not like it. It felt as if "Basch" was just from one thought to another during many portions of the book.

I think that is the problem I have with the book is that it feels to choppy. There is no fluidity to it. I can't get a rhythm going. I might just let it go and move on to the next book.
 
😍😍😍 My day has just gotten that much better!
SDN needs to create a blushing smilie so I can accurately respond to your adorableness 😀 😍😍😍 How was your day love?

It was really chill cuz my sometimes mean supervisor wasn't here today so I was on the computer all day on here(missing you), looking for apts in VA/MD/DC and looking at Howards website. How was your day?

TOP!!! Just wanted to put up a picture of Howard's library because I love it and it's TOP's in my book!

Well I am very glad to hear about your grandma doing better. I know that makes you feel much better. I told you, by His stripes we are healed! God is good!

Amen! Btw I loved the library at Howard. The whole campus was gorgeous. i think you and the Misses will really love DC. It is definitely different from Cali
 
Interesting...Mayo just cancelled my interview.
