strongbad email was THE BEST!! I was obsessed with that website too! 😍

It's been a weird day. Got promoted at work, did well on my first genetics test, and got my first rejection (BU). So many emotions hahaha
 
where do you work? sorry if you've already shared that. good job though! you didnt want to live in boston anyway, too cold.

Sorry to hear Ducky about BU, but congrats on the rest.

Seems like everyone on SDN is sharing the same fate there... I haven't submitted yet for them (waiting on my committee packet getting uploaded on AMCAS)

retail. I'm going to be a keyholder. Came totally out of the blue. Not a big deal but means a raise which is nice.

ohhhhh i was wondering about the BMS.. HMS has pretty much no essays though, unless you want HST.

getting rejected from BU is kind of like a necessary hazing ritual anyway

I have to write the essay...and I am severely struggling with it. If anyone has any Harvard inside info and wants to help me, PM me. It is stressing me out🙁

Yay on genetics and work!!!

Boooo on BU. But honestly, had I known how many apps they get I don't think I would have applied there. They have to cut 5,000 people right out of the gate. Also, did you notice that the BU thread each year is the first one to get a bit snarky?🙂
 
so i'm considering adding vermont. i love vermont, but so does everyone else. i feel like vermont is me personified in a medical school.
 
dang cougs you're also going HST? you really are applying to everywhere i am :laugh:

No, not HST; you have to write an essay if you are not applying straight out of undergrad.

"If you have already graduated, briefly (4000 characters max) summarize your activities since graduation"


That doesn't seem brief🙁
 
I have no research. sux. 👎
 
so a high school senior asked me for advice the other day and after speaking with her i recognized i am so that old person.

i was like 'those parties totally aren't worth not getting in hst' and 'besides, people talk a lot and they'll say things like "he was just drunk and you were just easy" and that's never nice.'

i could hear her eyes rolling. i was so that old person lecturing.

yea i have that one as well. i'm not sweating the characters on any of my essays, it's a limit, not a floor. just say what you were up to.

trade you gpa for research


my mommy also packed me jello for desert if you've got a good trade for that
+1. i'll throw in a pack of gum too.

Yeah, I am trying to decide if it is a straight "Factually list what you were doing" essay, or a "explain why you're not using your grad degree" essay.

obnoxious character limits. I've been thinking about starting the OHSU essays but 4,000 is so overwhelming. And the first question is so broad.

Part of me feels like I should apply to more schools, but I feel like that's the BU rejection talking. If it's hazing though then now I'm officially IN the process, which is exciting!

Unrelated: I do not enjoy learning chromosome behavior. Not at all. I don't care that wheat is a hexaploid.

I'm feeling the same way. I was complete 4 days after you at BU so I know it is coming.
I think it is the BU thing talking....I think you're going to get into OSHU🙂
 
whatever gum is the worst trade EVER




we never traded food at school. i didn't understand the concept. why would i trade when i could just take?

My parents wouldn't buy me Fruit By The Foot or Oreos or chips (I was SO deprived) so I would trade for those. Kids always wanted my homemade cookies, and I wanted the processed high fructose corn syrup-filled crap. Gushers were the ultimate.

right there with you. you know how i'm really whole-foodsy? well...when my family discovered whole foods existed and i walked in for the first time, i seriously had one thought: "there are other families like mine that exist and only let their kids eat all natural health food! i'm not alone!!!"

I. love. Gushers. The watermelon ones are soo freakin good!

I always loved Fruit Roll-ups too. Especially those ones that would leave blue and green "tattoos" on your tongue, haha.
 
would it perchance be about how your life got flipped, and subsequently turned upside down?
 
Ok, so I was at Disneyland, and I was in the parking lot waiting for the shuttle. It was in the middle of the day on a weekday, and no one else was there except for me and like 6 employees. So this one guy employee starts walking away and says to the other employees "I'll send it to you later".

Well, me, being the shy creature I am, said "Uh...what about me? I want it too."

And he, being another shy creature, says "You DO want it"

Me: I do? What is it?
Him: You have to see this...it is a picture of these two kids who came to the park earlier. They have Mickey Mouse and Goofy shaved into their heads"


So, he shows me the pic, and I'm of course totally impressed, and I'm like, I need that. Then I realized I left my phone in my car, so he waits for me to go back and get it. Then he texts it to me, which was awesome. So we text back and forth a couple of times joking about him stalking me and me crank calling him. And he says he will send me anything else cool he sees at the park.

This was like a month and a half ago.

Well, I hear nothing from him, until today. He randomly texts me. Asks what I am doing on Saturday. So I say "Nothing during the day, but at night I am going to see a friend's band play, why?" And he texts back "Oh, nothing, I just wanted to go to Disneyland". So I say that I can go during the day.

Still waiting for a response.

Is this weird?🙂
 
thats cool...






















just give us your number and his so when you go missing we can help locate you.

haha interesting. it seems like you go to disneyland a lot.
 
make sure you leave something you've touched (for the fingerprints) and a recent picture of yourself (for the milk cartons) before you go visit him.
 
::sigh::
Interesting Story=fail.

Should I instead talk about running into the creepy chiropractor at my dance class today?
