Class of 2014!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
oh and if you get sick during the exam, a little old lady from the registrar escorts you to UHS where you will be sequestered "incommunicado" until you are well enough to finish the test. literally, you cannot communicate with anyone other than a doctor until your final is turned in and done with. so intense.


INCOMMUNICADO!!!!!!!!!!!!! It just wasn't a final unless some decrepit little old lady said that word. and then yelled at a boy for having a hat on. I was never ill enough to warrant a trip to uhs during finals. I had a friend have a stroke during reading period (legit, she couldn't move the left side of her body for a while). She still took the molec. bio final with me at the end of January, even though she was still staying in UHS. 😱

of course, she got a 94 on that test...I remember because I got a 49 🙄


helloooo

second look weekend was awesome!! i can definitely see myself being really happy there🙂

and i got to meet caniac too!😀

did i miss anything important here this weekend? you guys were way too chatty for me to try and catch up😛

2LW was BALLER!!! Although the thought of memorizing 11,000 anatomy terms is more than a little intimidating. Here's to hoping for on-campus housing

👍 awesome + 2 of my most favorite people

aww thanks brooky!!!!
 
Yoda - everytime I see your title it makes me think of the *N Sync song Space Cowboy.

Wi yi yi yippee ai aye yippee ai yo yippee ai aye

wi yi yi yippee ai aye yippee ai yo yippee aye yo.

Yep, just did that from memory.

the mention of NSync makes me think of their song "Digital Getdown"...mainly b/c it's just so creepy and I thought it was hilarious when No Strings Attached first dropped.

it also comes in other varities, but this one is red (the one i was eating)
 
lol @ boobquake

so who's excited for med school, guys? just around the corner...go out and buy your BRS Phys and Lippincott Biochem...
 
I kind of wish they'd titled it something like "BEHOLD: The Power of BOOBS!!" 🙂
 
yup. last real break in life?

That's what it seems like, unless I decide to take M1 summer off. At least LSU starts a lot later than I initially thought.

yeah, I hear that. too bad Case starts in July! but apparently in Block 1 you coast

Well, when in July makes a big difference. I wouldn't mind starting at the end of July, but doesn't Case start on the 10th or something?

yeah, it's like 1 week into July. but all we do for the first 4-5 weeks is get all the behavioral science, biostats, and "intro to being a doctor" stuff out of the way. we also start anatomy I believe. either way, I feel like the first block is going to drag on forever, but maybe it'll just acclimate me into the med school mindset.
 
yodes, how did you go about finding research for the summer? just curious.

I can still recite that whole song too...

I was a big ol' *N Sync-er

Look at my trade bbl.

You are trade-happy!

Ohhh man I start SO SOON AND AM FREAKING OUT!
 
Dang! And I thought July was early!

Can't hurt to knock some stuff out of the way early, though, amirite?

Tru dat.

I am really excited to start. And because of co-ops I haven't had a summer vaca in 4 years so it won't really be any big loss for me.
 
The gf finds out whether she got the Fulbright today.:xf:

I'll be so excited, but man, Singapore is about as far away from New York as you can get.
 
yodes, how did you go about finding research for the summer? just curious.

The school had a list of projects and I emailed the PIs of all the ones I thought looked cool and set up interviews. Summer research is so big now that most schools should have some sort of formal summer research program. I know some people that had a really particular interest contacted PIs outside of the list to set something up as well.

There's also some at other schools/institutions you can apply for.

cool. what are you researching?
 
I'm staying at the school. It's the most convenient thing considering my apartment and all my crap is here. I'm doing bench/translational research on community acquired MRSA.
Kid in my mom's elementary school class got MRSA and the principal told her to "keep it under wraps, we don't want a panic here." 😱 I told her that's ridiculous and she needs to tell someone. WTF.

sounds cool 👍
 
and sorry 'bout the trade bb, I'm going to see how Hanley's shaping up because I had to give away Pedroia + Pujols as part of the trade. Plus, I'm feeling pretty good about pitching right now (except for Vazquez who is pretty much just warming the bench). Any interest in Hunter for some kind of pitching or are you stacked in the OF?


EDIT: or the other trade I proposed, lol
