Class of 2015!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I woke up early this morning to do a favor for my gf (I know, I know, aww right? haha). So on my way home I decided to stop and get breakfast at this new place I saw open called the "Corner Cafe." It had a bunch of people outside so I figured it would be good, but I didn't notice they were all vietnamese until I was walking in.

So I get inside, hearing a little laughter as I procede. I look at the menu and EVERYTHING is in Vietnamese :laugh:. I'm sure most people would have just walked out, but I figure I'll give it a try. I saw the guy behind the counter was making iced coffee, so I ordered one too.

It turns out that iced Vietnamese coffee is delicious and ridiculously strong! I consume massive amounts of caffeine in the form of rockstars daily, and even I think this stuff is liquid crack.

I think I may have found my new coffee stop in the morning. I better learn some Vietnamese though 😀


LOVE it! Anything with sweetened condensed milk is delightful 🙂

As for Starburst, I love the red ones. Cherry is always my favorite kind of fruit candy. The tropical ones are good though definitely.

sorry about the rejection, baller. schools update on weekends?
 
Has anyone had one of these?

they sell those at the pool in my neighborhood so I had them every summer. sooo good. 👍 oh when life was as simple as deciding when to go to the pool and what flavor to order
 
When I was a kid, the lady at the store used to let us make our own. We would mix all the flavors and fill the cup halfway with syrup. I can't even explain the taste. Now I stick to watermelon. So amazing on a really hot day.

It's the ultimate energy drink. We didn't have Rockstar and Redbull. We had to improvise.

It is a cloudless day in CT. I'm goin' outside!

Edit: my wife is making me help clean the house.

As payback....I'm growing a moustache.
 
wow you guys did some work over the last 36 hours to push this thread count up, i'll catch up later. so excited i dont have to drink for a while and im interviewing in 4 days 👍
 
sorry balls, rejection is poopy. i will beat them up for you.

but uh my candy tastes are awesome. sour patch kids ftw

that sentence sounds like i taste like candy hmmm
 
Care to share what you had? Maybe it will motivate me to make my own breakfast right now. :laugh:

Note: Sorry bigballer, it's the school's loss. 👎
I crushed garlic and sauteed it in a little bit of olive oil. Then I added fresh spinach and cooked it. Then I mixed in two eggs. In another pan I took a whole wheat tortilla and a piece of cheese and melted the cheese on the tortilla. Then I put the spinach and egg on it, and chopped up tomato and jalapenos and put that on top.


It was so freaking good. It needed more jalapenos though.

I hate you...that sounds so freaking delicious! Le sigh.

Aww, I had a good weekend...Saturday: I had a party with my family in SD...spent the whole day there! I was able to visit my bff who is starting tomorrow at UCSD SOM...so that was great..getting to see his apartment and stuff. Today..was reallly lame though, since I've done nothing but bum around all day *le sigh*.

Now it's everyone else's turn to share how their weekend was!
 
I generally can't stand more than 90% of television, yet I'm compelled to watch the Emmys. It's bizarre.

That is quite strange, considering the possiblity you may not know many of the shows that are receiving awards. I watched it for a bit and I didn't know many..although The Good Wife and 24 came up..which was awesome! and then there was the eye-candy aspect of it lol....although even then it only maintained my interest for about 20 minutes total.
 
True. I feel like I need to check out Mad Men or Breaking Bad now. I also know I'm missing out on a lot because I don't get HBO.
 
Is anyone around? I'm in a crappy mood and want to whine, or at least get distracted by partaking in the usual repartee that goes on here.
 
Thanks Cougs and Cliff! Yeah I'm just bummed. This process is kind of hard on the ol' self-esteem at times, and I have pretty thick skin when it comes to rejection. I'm already panicking and thinking of how to improve my application for next cycle... getting a little ahead of myself here, I know.
 
On top of getting hit with a big R, I had a pretty lame weekend. Didn't go out, my bf fell asleep at 11 on Saturday while I was wide awake at his place til 4 am, bored out of my mind, watched a movie I've already seen, and ate so-so food. (I know the last complaint is the one you guys will find most important/devastating haha)

Daisy, you should have totally come down and visited me. Do you like roller coasters? Want to go to Six Flags?🙂

and yes.....the most disturbing part is the food😉

The rejections sting every freaking time. I am so sorry it was one of your tops🙁 Can I go kick them in the nuts for you?

As far as the panicking goes...you know I am anti-panicking until at least 10/15 BUT.....sometimes getting involved in a new activity can recharge you and make you feel more in control and prepared. I think you are going to be fine this app season, but I also think that to stay sane during it, if you are someone who likes to prepare for every possibility, taking some action may actually make you feel better.


You can come down here and do a ride-along with me!! I think I am going to do the fire department first. Mmmm....firemen😉
 
you should've woken him up in a "special" way.

If you mean what I think, that doesn't work anymore after dating for longer than 3 years. He'd just bury himself in pillows in order to continue sleeping undisturbed.

I think I should have found a Smirnoff Ice and wedged it in his hand so he would wake up iced.

it depends on how much he wanted to sleep. after 3 years though, it probably is a 50/50 shot.

haha waking up iced would've been hilarious.
 
definitely laughed out loud at points when i read the last 150 posts to catch up.. ive gone out 8 straight nights and there is no end in sight, my roommates all have wall street offers and this is getting a little ridiculous. i think this thread has stayed my drunk texting a little which is a plus.
sorry to hear about the rejection baller and keep your head up daisy
 
Soooo how is everyone else doing?

Sorry to hear about your R this weekend. I also got one too..le sigh. Just be confident, hold your chin up, and chug on forward through the next few months with interviews and hopefully acceptances! 😀 It'll happen! 🙂

I know how you feel with the blows to one's esteem...I too have given some thoughts to "what can I do better next cycle?"...but hey, hopefully we won't need it!!

Anyhoo, my night is going awesome (not really)..I just got a message from my ex....no bueno...never bueno.

Message from your ex? Sounds like someone's in need of a little physical therapy, IF YOURE PICKIN UP WHAT IM PUTTIN DOWN



But no, please don't do that. I don't even know why I made this post. It's quite late.

hahaha...I figured as much. I was told not to even respond lol....as much as i wanted to. Le sigh. 😕
 
Wow, looks like we are back to the night posters vs. the day posters... and the day posters are losing.
 
Dear bleargh,


You were right.

You are always right.

You are my ambassador of Kwan.


Also, I will no point out that about a month ago, you told me to shadow a DO so that I could get a DO letter and apply to DO schools too. Because to do so would imply that you are not always right.


Thanks. Sorta.

Cougs
 
I just got an interview invite!!

They only do interviews T/Th though! I have lab that day, and that lab class took me 2 years to get into and it is the ONLY class I need to graduate. They are super strict at my school about missing lab.

Yay! congrats! 👍 ..... oooo bummer! Hope you can figure something out. I hate labs that don't let you make them up or let you miss one. 🙁

Woohoo!! Congrats!!!


I will happily take your place in lab🙂
 
Congratulations on the invite Rhino! You can probably get it excused since it's for a freaking medical school interview...they're more lenient for that I think.
