Well, except for the fact that I was sick the entire week - I literally got sick the night before our flight and started feeling way better the day we left - it was awesome. I loaded up on DayQuil/NyQuil and tried to be a trooper with the girl and my parents. Fortunately the casino gods rewarded me for my illness... I won about $900 over the course of the week at craps.

And the liver results are in: after telling the doc of my sickness over the week, he thinks it's mono or CMV. I'm going back in tomorrow to get a battery of blood tests, but he didn't seem too concerned once I told him I was sick. My AST/ALT levels were 400+ (normally no more than 60), and my bilirubin was 3.8 (normally no more than 2). 😱

Yikes, hope you're well!

Haha, sorry about the lip. In that case, I started my EM rotation a year ago... I was there for a gnarly case of parotitis (my cheek was swollen to the size of a tennis ball) the docs learned I was applying to medical school, so they printed out a bunch of pages for me to read up about my condition.

Edit: In an hour I'm going to have a 60 minute massage... fo free! (Minus tip.) My grandpa won a massage gift certificate at some raffle and didn't want it, so for whatever reason he gave it to me. I'm stoked.

Edit #2: Top!

So jealous of your massage! I would so get one, but I am afraid the noises I'd make during the massage would lead to a shutdown of the facility, because people would think more than a massage is going on back there...

Not so jealous of your parotitis, although I don't know if there is even anything that can really be done other than "waiting it out"?

How does an eyebrow hair get to 2 inches without you noticing!!?
Click to expand...

I would have to be some sort of savant to have noticed it any earlier! It escaped my notice by being woven in with all my normal eyebrow hairs since time immemorial (seriously, this thing had clearly been growing for a very long time) until I rubbed my forehead and dislodged it. Then I was like 😱





It's June. Ah, I remember being totally panicked about every little thing on every primary and secondary application...I think this is a good time to take a break from SDN until about...oh, say, October 15...

I try to ignore most threads that aren't either ours, or related to my school! If I'm in a good mood, I'll help out someone...lol.

I submitted my application yesterday and it still hasn't been verified yet. Should I be worried?

I made a typo--wrote a word in its plural form when it should have grammatically been singular. Will AdComs void my application for that?
 
hi! i'm back! i just got into my top choice med school off the waitlist so i'm still all 😍 and :hardy: and :soexcited:

seriously though, what an absolutely incredible feeling
 
:laugh: awesome, Sun! Everyone needs to spice up their av's IMO.
 
Ugh, today is going to be long. I woke up at 2:30am for a 3am disney store release. They sold out of 1k units less than 5 minutes. I got my order in, and then disney started canceling all the orders because they messed up with something somewhere. So...it seems I woke up early and couldn't go back to sleep for no reason. I wanted to clean my classroom today, but I might end up sleeping on a lab table.

😍 😍 😍 So happy for you, Jersey!

I'm in a bad mood. My workplace has precious few mother-to-be parking spaces that are right near the back entrance to the hospital. There was one available when I was swiping my ID to get into the lot. Some dillhole clearly no longer of child-bearing age snaked it right in front of me. I had half a mind to park my car right behind her and pick a fight when she got out. I'm now parked at the ass-end of the parking lot. 😡

I think you should have listened to that half of your mind. And sold tickets. I'd pay to watch. :laugh:

Ahhhhh it feels good to be back... the sight of Sun's new avatar makes me feel right at home 😀

Going to get my shots for school this afternoon! I don't think I've ever been excited to be poked before...

EDIT: I just bookmarked rogueunicorn's epic thread that just got closed... lots of reading material in my future 😀

I think if people just posted their thread links and moved on it would've lasted much longer 🙁.

On a related note, that was my first time reading an Etzio thread (someone linked it) . How did I miss that?!

🙂 I stared at this for a while.


Why does this thread keep dropping to a 3 start rating? Is it the decrease in activity or are people actually voting for low # stars?

Enjoy the weekend 2015 😍

I'm sorry. I hate when people park in assigned parking spots that aren't assigned to them. Like at my work there's always a good 2 or 3 cars parked in handicap spots without handicap placards, while I see old frail ladies that can hardly stand (not sure how they drive) or my buddy in a wheelchair having to park far away. People these days... harumph.

I got my titer results back for MMR, Hep B and Varicella that I had to have done for school.

Dude... I think my immune system pwns based on the threshold for immunity and my own results.

Jelly. I had to send my form in w/o the titers, because my crappy insurance wouldn't pay for them and it was gonna be way expensive. So I just have to wait until August. Lamesauce.
 
Very lame!

You know what else is lame? That we're STILL waiting for our God damn financial aide packages.

Ever seen youparklikeanassh*le.com? I've been debating printing one out for the douche all day long.

Also, my mother-in-law, who has a handicapped tag thanks to a bad back from a car accident years ago and needs a cane or rollator to get around, just started parking behind people that did that. Haha.

I just googled that. Whenever you're posting I need to keep a separate tab open for looking up your pop culture references. 🙂

As a parking perfectionist, I am intimately familiar with that site. 😉

It usually is, don't worry!
 
Fun fact: I can now see Geekling move from the outside. Nothing too impressive yet, just bumps almost like if you tightened a muscle.

there's a lot for them to be jelly of. i bet some of those bums still have MCATs to take. not to mention secondaries to ponder, interviews to sweat through, and the time between interview and decision. poor bastards.

Go to security... "would the old dillhole, with license plate # 12345, please call ext [security]. Your lack of functional eggs has been reported. Thank you"

I find myself less excited as the number of paychecks remaining continues to dwindle. *sigh*
 
My new coworker's husband is an anesthesiology resident who loves to watch Archer. And this whole thread likes it, pretty much. I think that awesome and/or medical people just like that show and there is no further theorizing needed.

My mom's staying with me this month and makes watching that show so awkward... 🙁
 
Just graduated today! 🙂 YAY!! I'm pretty happy with my photos from today! Sad that I didn't get to see a handful of my friends after the ceremony, but oh well! lol

Your insurance won't pay for titers--that's so strange! Labs/Xrays are usually covered at 100% if you've got a PPO, and there's no real reason not to cover them... 🙁 Hopefully your school will approve! 🙂

That sounds horrifying to me! Could never watch a show like that with my mom. I remember taking her to see Avatar when it came out and I was even uncomfortable with that Navi-style lovescene that took place :lame:.
