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

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Thanks! I was also about to say that a friend of mine checked into "Five guys" on Facebook, which made me realize I wanted "Five guys"..but I'm a vegetarian and not eating meat right now.

Has anyone had Five Guys before? I'm excited to have one in Brooklyn, but not necessarily sure I want to pay like 10 dollars for a burger. :-/



FINGERS CROSSED! : )

Yep! They started up ~10 miles from my hometown. I don't usually eat burgers, though, so I usually go for a grilled cheese sammich with grilled onions, and of course Cajun fries.
 
Edit: Welcome to the top of the page....mauberley style.

Grrr... I want to be in your sig cougs. You are the hot fudge to my ice cream cone 😍
for you? Anything.
You're right. I haven't been keeping up on SDN. I'm assuming you spend most of your time in the lounge though...I haven't worked up the nerve to get in there.

Wait. You're a 2016er, right? I forget.



Do it. Live it.

Cougs, I'm going to attempt to stop coffee. I want to be a part of the cool kids (non-drinkers) club with you.
Wha? Since when am I cool??
I was in Coug's sig for a glorious two week period. Feels gud, man

I heart you🙂 😍

haha 👍 I don't actually have any plans for it, but I figure I should take care of certain typical bureaucratic hassles while I still have lots of free time

You can do passports by mail. Pretty painless.

So one of my friends told me about this "Lollpalooza" thing, and while I had heard of it I didn't know much about it (I'm not a hipster or concert-going type). I found out that I'll be in Chicago when it's going down. Is it worth checking out? $90/day or $215 for the weekend seems pretty steep.

Lolla isn't hipster. Pitchfork is. (Except, well, it can't be anymore, by definition.)

anyone considering getting a job while in medschool?

something like 10-15 hours/week?

Maybe. Depends on how easy or hard I find school to be.

Five Guys! omnomnomnom

I don't know that I'd rank it above INO, but it's pretty tasty.

Oh boy, at the rate of this thread we're gonna hit page 666 tomorrow, right for the rapture. We're screwed. We're gonna have the mark of the beast. Damn you fools!

If only we'd listen...

Well, it seems like quite a few people do research during med school (during the school year itself, not just summer). And I'm definitely planning on doing so right from M1! Not sure if I'd call it a "job" if we're not getting paid for it though. :laugh:

I think 10-15 hours of what you're thinking of doing is completely doable. What kind of job were you thinking of?
 
I want to try Apple Pan so so badly.

But I also never want to eat again since I've eaten so much this week.

Decisions, decisions.
 
Really? I'm not even a hamburger person and I know that Five Guys >>>>> In-N-Out 😛

I'm hedging my bets because it's been years since I've had INO and I didn't want to start a burger war with the West Coasties that I wasn't prepared to win.
 
Wha? Since when am I cool??

Since like always!

Also, the first day of quitting din't go so well. Friend had a really sexy espresso machine at her place. One thing led to another...

Same here. I've already committed to a minor job for first year and I'll see if I can add more hours onto that as I go.

I love In-N-Out. I wanna try Five Guys now!
 
yeah, I'm gonna try to pick up some per diem weekend hours at the rehab institute down the street from my school. Might as well make use of my $60,000 master of occupational therapy degree 🙄

I asked the question at all the schools I interviewed at, and everyone said it was definitely possible to hold down a few hours a week job during the 1st two years


sounds promising. I don't think I'll hold down an actual job, but hopefully I can find a small niche to make a little pocket money while I'm in school...
 
Just thought I'd leave you guys with this...

I have to say...the following is my favorite part of the song:

"I Can't Take It Take It Take No More
Never Felt Like Felt Like This Before
C’mon Get Me Get Me On The Floor"

...secret desire much? #inappropriate.
 
Its true. Also Apple Pan >>>>Father's office >>>Counter >>>Five Guys>> In-N-Out

I don't even like burgers and yet I feel compelled to defend Five Guys...wah.

Father's Office is good, though I mostly got for the beer.

Apple Pan makes a decent grilled cheese. And if you want FREE PIE (and who doesn't), go on April 11th.

Not me, I'm looking forward to quiting my job and just focusing on school. I've worked all through undergrad, so it will be a nice change.
 
Also, is there a way to track or "favorite" certain forum members?

The simplest way to do this is to only read the 2015 thread.

Otherwise I just have a mental shortlist of people whose posts I always read when I happen to see that they've posted. No way to receive notification when your "favorites" have posted though.

for you? Anything.

Good company. Like 👍

Maubs = intelligent risk aversion

Five Guys is good in light of the fact that it's not that expensive. $10 will get you two burgers and an MI; if it only got you one it would be far from worth it.


Where the heck is Pons?

Right? Me too. I've been working through all my pre-reqs and almost all of undergrad.

Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer is now on Netflix streaming. My kid is just like :wow:.

I think having some side cash might be nice; but it depends on how much change we're talking. (I wonder if I could stay on the payroll as a consultant at my office. *laugh*) I'm definitely looking forward to being able to focus on school, though. Working and taking post-bacc classes wasn't exactly fun.

Haunting remix I heard on Sirius XMU:

Today was disappointingly uneventful. Was it too much to ask for one person to do something entertaining to the rest of us out of embarrassment?

Although, I'm sure there are tons of people out there thinking "It's not midnight yet! There's still time for the first earthquake/volcano/whatever!"

Next week's south park is gonna be about the rapture. I predicted it first. Let's hope I'm better at this prediction thing than Mr. Camping.




Oh, and I received this week's issue of a weekly news magazine a few days ago, and I just read it today. One of the blurbs: "It was a good week for the human race, after the world did not end on May 21, as Christian radio broadcaster Harold Camping had predicted. [Editor's note: We filed this item several days early, but will print a correction if it's wrong.]"

I've thought about it, but a bunch of people have told me no way Jose. So I think I won't worry about it right away, but if I find that I have enough time midway through the year I might look into lifeguarding or teaching private swim lessons somewhere. Pretty painless, easy money. But we'll see.

I *may* have just gotten some big news... but unfortunately the school in question's admissions office closed about 5 minutes before I checked my online status. Stay tuned until Monday when it's official. Just my luck 😳

Oooh ooh I hope it's great news! :luck:

I've never had Five Guys before. As a native Californian my heart belongs to In-N-Out... although I consider myself an equal-opportunity hamburger lover, so I'd be open to other options 🙂

Actually, just yesterday my mom and I were chatting and she said something about a new hamburger place that's possibly coming to my hometown: "They say it's like In-N-Out. I think it's called Seven Brothers or something like that..."

So we're about 5 minutes in and I don't feel any different... 🙄

Ohhhh, it's 6pm Eastern. Crap! 🙁

How do you find out if your name was already called or whatever...or do you get a courtesy call/knock?

LOVE YOUR MOM!! 🙂 I will probably miss In N Out too...since I grew up with it. Oddly enough, there's a 5 Guys opening up next to an In N Out near my current house. *sigh* Off to NYC I go in about a month, at which point my entire diet will change lol.
 
Good news came early in the snail mail- Top choice school + 5k scholarship! 😱😀
 
Me too. Gonna start my run at 5:30ish. Don't wanna be indoors when it happens. Maybe I'll see ya up there? 😎

word on the street tells me I'm going downwards, not up. But hopefully we'll cross paths on the way!

you were raptured up.


btw this concept of the rapture, is, i'm certain, completely and exclusively american.
 
I'm soooooo amped... looking forward to probably having the lowest MCAT score in my entire incoming class :laugh:
 
Didn't see one dino. So much for Raptor's Day... 🙁

I wonder if they're this photogenic?

Nice, Maubs.

Also, bad grades at top school thread made me call out some kid. I hope saying someone prestige hoochies it up (not using that word) isn't too bad for SDN...

I'm pretty sure that SDN has made it so that I want to punch anyone who uses the word "prestige."

I was just annoyed that he/she put down EpicBearDude's comments because he's going to Pitt and it's not a top 10 school (it's 14) so how could he possibly know if top 10 schools paid attention to undergrad prestige. Seriously. I rarely lay the SDN smackdown, but I couldn't resist in this case. And I was mostly nice about it and didn't even mock the poster for being just an HSDN member commenting on medical school admissions.

"No disrespect how you doin'."
 
I want to know why it is that class threads (as in C/O 2014 etc.) aren't moved out of the pre-allo forum and into the medstudent forum after matriculation.


But really just bump and +pad+
