I'm still oscillating between applying this summer and next, as I have some tentative gap year plans and know it is frowned upon to defer. However, I might be a 2014-er, in which case, hello, maybe?

:welcome:

yeah, and most other things he says 😛

is anyone else bummed by the hot weather? we got no spring in NYC! it went from winter to hot in about a week. also i just hate summer in general so once i start sweating i get 😡

What's Spring? I've never had such a season in my life.

This is me barfing on Myuu.

:barf::lame:

You missed.
 
ksmi, Spring does exist in Louisiana, it just lasts for about 2 days. On the good side though, the weather was just right for my herpetology class field trip this weekend - we caught 28 species of reptiles and amphibians! woot.
 
Aren't those swamp critters poisoness
venomous, yes.
But a very large part of the class is identifying species, so we can tell them apart from the regular ones - caught some cottonmouths (crazy, one just swam right next to me while I was in a creek) and copperheads actually. It's a great class.

I find it hilarious that everyone is all complainy about the weather being hot wherever they may be. You all have no idea.

See... this is why people think Louisianans are a bunch of crazy rednecks running around in swamps. :laugh: You should have caught a nutria.
 
It doesn't work without the audio. Also, if you had to pick one you should have picked "goatboy". That was probably the best skit on the album.
You had better NOT mention that again.


And his songs were good stuff too.

Wait, I'm confused... Are you trying to imply that you guys aren't? :meanie:
 
im in super shopping mode right now

would you think a short sleeved jacket would be too informal for the interview?
i keep seeing some really cute pant suits but with short sleeves
 
post pics of you modeling them and we'll judge.
 
haha
ye right
maybe i shud just post the pics from the store websites 😛
 
aww you break my heart divy-poo.

I think I'm about to spend close to $500 on a brand new suit. Can't wait to see myself in it.

youre supposed to be dressed in formal attire, to me at least what you are describing doesnt sound like it. I know its harder for women then men to find something to wear as all we have to do is go buy a decent black suit and tie and we are set. But you dont wanna roll in there like you just woke up and came from class or something😉. I agree with the modeling idea from lukkie😛

Also blue..since we are both in the same area basically (i think) where are you getting your suit...im seriously so fail I have no idea where to buy one or anything lol. My friend was saying there was some place called like 2 day suits or something that has good deals but they are only open 2 days a week? I dont know...I just dont wanna blow a ton of money on a suit that I will wear to interviews then basically trash...

Agreed! I would not wear short sleeves. However, you don't have to wear a black suit. Gray and the like are okay!

Yeah, man. I'm so not looking forward to suit shopping again... I'm going to see if I can use one of my old ones. I'll bounce the idea off of some lady friends.
 
Id say thats more buisness casual then anything formal....i wouldnt advise something like that. Then again I didnt even know black suits werent buisness attire until yoda just pointed it out..lol

You can wear them, that's what tons of people do wear. I was just saying it's a pretty new thing.
 
I wore a charcoal suit😉.

Black suits are not a requirement, and in fact until fairly recently were frowned upon for buisness attire.


Yeah, I agree. I have a dark navy blue one and a dark chocolate brown. No black...

Does that mean im canadian 🙁🙁🙁

Nah, I use either at random.👍:laugh:

What's wrong with Canadians?!

I agree. You can definitely wear them. I don't think it's new per se, but black suits really put a lot of emphasis on the tie. So you need to have something bold enough to make you stand out, but not outlandish enough to make you look like a clown. 😉
 
Mine's charcoal gray. What I like about it is that the pants are really narrow at the ankles. It makes me look taller.
Also got brand new shoes, with two inch insoles. Probably gonna change into something more comfy during tours.
 
It's fun as long as you're not wearing heels and freaking out about the incredibly inane thing you just said to your interviewer.👍

Icing on the top!

OMG that looks yummy

Nice.👍 My suit is also charcoal, but I've noticed a lot more color/pattern variation in female interviewees than male.

What do you think about all-black suit, with black ties and everything? I was thinking about that but my mom vehemently said no.

Are you interviewing at the morgue?:meanie:

The medical establishment tends to lean toward the more conservative side of fashion. You don't want to stand out for something the adcom will perceive as a negative.👍
