Members do not see this ad.

Just for you all, I now have an MDApps page. Feel free to stalk away 😉

He.he.he.... I stalk everyone else on MDApps anyway.

 

[n3xa]

...ah! You're on; just not in this thread!

Outreach work=volunteer work?😕

Weird I'm here tho ionno? 😕

It used to be a volunteer gig for the first year and then I started getting a small stipend. I do HIV testing and hand out free condoms at some of the MSM bars ( = men who have sex with men) in the 'burbs on Thursdays.

 

[Whatyousay]

Spam.

*commences aforementioned MDapps stalking*

Fun fact: coleontheroll (nicknaylor) is part of google autocomplete for mdapps.

 

[SteveJMarist]

Realized today that unless I get my **** together and start studying more intensely for the MCAT, I'm not going to med school. 5 weeks to make it count. Won't see me as frequently on here anymore, but I'll pop in and out. Wish me luck!

Good luck! Try and breath. Sounds like you're spiraling.

Haha yeah! Everyone should make one if they're comfortable with it, so we can better use each other as a resource before interviews and stuff

I will eventually.

yea I already noticed that. Popular guy.

 

[bookfreak89]

Btw, MDApps is the equivalence to faceook for me on SDN.
Creeping made easy, but I dislike when people provide limited info😡
am I the only one who MDApps creeps?
Feel free to discuss.
I felt odd admitting, but I think I've already mentioned that I'm an avid Facebook creeper.
Btw, speaking of Facebook, I hate spring. All the *in a relationship* *engaged* and *married* relationship statuses have been popping up like crazy! Me iz sad because all my friends have been leaving the singles club 🙁

I sometimes do this as well.

got to spend some time today talking to my kids. hilarious as always 😀

tomorrow's the school festival. every high school in japan has a 2-day school festival where each homeroom does performances, sells food, etc. it's the most fun ever! but it's gonna be pouring the whole day and most of its outside...

Ah, I have heard of these! What is your class going to do?

I ended up staying in- just watched a little NBA and crashed around 11 or 12.

Letdown. Your age is catching up with you. 😉

90% of mine have been gone from the club for a long time 🙂. If only we had more time to date outside of these apps and everything else...

For me, I have more friends in the club than out. Problem is that they are scattered all over the world so we don't get together as often. 🙁

Haha, yes, I am getting old .

Give it time: people you know, including your friends, will all start to get married or get into really serious relationships. The circle of life.

 

[bookfreak89]

No, you are not alone. I think all of the 2016ers here should make one, even if they limit the details. That way I can stalk everyone during interview season and see how it's going 👍.

I have one already. I'll link to it when I submit.

I left out an apostrophe.

Is anyone going to buy interview clothes yet? I'm going to look at suits, and am not sure if I should go boring and professional, or something that is a little more to my taste.

I am not going to buy anything until early August (there might be sales!).

I need to, but I don't want to. Where are you planning on going to buy the suit?

I'll probably go with boring and professional 😎

Destroy that test!

 

[bookfreak89]

Does anyone know the difference between a one-button and two-button jacket?😕

I'm kidding. You're probably the same age as me, and it is probably work that has turned you into a non-partying machine.

Yeah, I know it will happen eventually, but I will relish in the moment until then.

 

[n3xa]

And I've seen a ton of divorces this year as well. The circle of life that I hope to not have to deal with.

 

[nadaba]

I am not going to buy anything until early August (there might be sales!).

That's a good idea. Are August suit sales a common thing?

I'm kidding. You're probably the same age as me, and it is probably work that has turned you into a non-partying machine.

It's amazing how work does that. I never go out anymore. I come home, eat dinner, run, and watch baseball. Kind of depressing.

 

[bookfreak89]

That's a good idea. Are August suit sales a common thing?

No, but August sales are in general, so maybe it might affect suit prices. Hahaha. Besides, I'm too broke to buy anything right now.

It's amazing how work does that. I never go out anymore. I come home, eat dinner, run, and watch baseball. Kind of depressing.

That's probably why working-people enjoy going back to school.

Re bolded: I thought you were in your last year of undergrad? 😕 I guess not.

No, I've been working full-time since January. I did just graduate, though. 🙂

Ah, I see. Congrats on graduating! 😀

 

[kansaskid]

I don't either. I'm too old (and too engaged lol) for the frat party scene that most Peace Corps volunteer parties turn into

I just found out that all my transcripts have been received by AMCAS! Finally. I was waiting on the last one for like two weeks. Maybe I'll be verified sometime before next year now.

Just for you all, I now have an MDApps page. Feel free to stalk away 😉

You've just been stalked. Nice MCAT man 👍. I'm jealous. I think you'll do quite well.

I need to, but I don't want to. Where are you planning on going to buy the suit?

I'll probably go with boring and professional 😎

Umm I dunno. JCPenny, Men's Wearhouse, etc.

I don't mean to say that I'm planning on showing up in an all white suit or something, but I'd prefer to to get something a little stylish if I'm shelling out a few hundred. Anyone ever watch White Collar on USA? I want a Neil Caffrey style suit 😎.

Something about the bolded just made me lol. Anyways, I think that as long as it fits you properly and isn't an outrageous color, then you can work something stylish.

Thanks!

That dude knows how to wear em! I think the key is to buy a decent suit, then take it to your local cheap tailor and get it tailored. That's what I do, and it's really not that expensive (like 30$ at the most) so long as you get it done at a dry cleaners or little tailor shop. The department stores and suit places will charge you a FORTUNE to get them tailored there (like upwards of 100$, from what I remember).

No problem.

I know right?! If I had money I'd have a collection like his.

Yeah, that's the advice I got. I guess I'll just go to the department store and then get it tailored somewhere else. Time to find out where in the heck a tailor shop is in my city.

It was work, but I had my boring days in school as well 🙂. Not sure if we are the same age, are we?

And I've seen a ton of divorces this year as well. The circle of life that I hope to not have to deal with.

Note that n3xa is older me and has seen this cycle progress to its doom. 🙂

Back when I had to wear a suit every day for work, I would frequent K&G. One summer they had a buy one get one suit sale! It was awesome!

White suit . I want to get a beige one and wear a really bright colored shirt under the jacket- Miami vice style! Pair of shades too.

 

[TheMightySmiter]

The sheer length of this thread frightens me, but I suppose I'll let myself get sucked in anyway. I'm a postbac (class of '09) and will hopefully be graduating med school along with y'all!


I gotta buy a suit too. Girls are lucky, though, we have a lot more choice.

Yea, we are def the home of spam posters. Welcome, though.

Class of '09 undergrad and currently a postbac or class of '09 postbac? C/O '09 ugrad myself 🙂.

As for the suit: I'm happy we don't have many options. I don't really like to shop.

I'll be 22 this Dec.

Wouldn't want that to happen to me.

Nope. I am 24. I'll turn 25 a month after you turn 22. Told you I'm old. 😉

🙄 You're not old. Are you finished with work? I'm procrastinating on studying for my exams, so we can have a post-a-thon!

 

[SteveJMarist]

I work from 9-5 CST. The system is down yet again so now I'm just bored again 😎.

Can't wait to get the weekend started! I'm going out in the River North area, for those of you that are Chicagoans and know what I'm talking about. For the rest of you- it's where Northwestern med is located. 😀

I heard that's a nice area of Chicago. Are you going to visit Northwestern?

 

[SteveJMarist]

Haha- not tonight. Tonight I will be going out with friends. I live 10 min. away from the neighborhood (I live 5 or so blocks away from Wrigley field, sadly).

 

[bookfreak89]

As you should! What are you guys going to do?

(I live 5 or so blocks away from Wrigley field, sadly).

I'm assuming the Cubs play there?

Eating Chinese pepper chicken and rice. yum.

We're going to this place called "Moe's Cantina". Their River North location is their newer one which I haven't been too, so it should be interesting.

And, yes, the Cubs play at Wrigley . Chinese pepper chicken = yum.

 

[berriesandcream]

Post off again 🙁

Shakespeare, you've been stalked!

Just got back from grabbing Thai food with a friend. Had chicken spicy fried rice, sat and ate for 3 hours. I was in weekend mode (no classes on Fridays), so I went in sweats, a tshirt, hair in a bun, and glasses haha...attractive 👍

Tonight getting my study on for finals 🙁 And I'm going to a friend's grad on Sunday 🙂

Have fun tonight, Steve!

As for suits, there's not many rules, as long as it looks nice/professional. Girls definitely have more options, though.

As for the "cycle," I've noticed that all my pre-med friends are still single. But, the business and art majors are all getting engaged. Stopped by school today and a friend came up running, showed me her ring, and informed me that she just got engaged. totally stoked for her! Haven't seen much on the divorce front.....yet!


I turn 22 in october...

Thai food is sooo good. My favorite (aka the only thing I ever get) is chicken pad thai.

Tonight getting my study on for finals 🙁 And I'm going to a friend's grad on Sunday 🙂

Me too, but it is so hard to find the motivation now that the end is in sight.

Have fun tonight, Steve!

My friend got chicken pad thai! She got the lunch special, so we shared her soup 😍

Ugh, I know. I'm already getting in vacation mode. Also, there have been six "I'm done" statuses from the UC people. I'm jelly 😡 Six and still counting 🙁

Ouch 😡 Sorry, bookfreak 🙁 But you eat jalepeno at random?😕 If I remember correctly, you said you don't like spicy food right? But that sucks! I burned my hard pallet last night when drinking soup 😡😡

I know this is old, but I felt the need to look it up because I adore this commercial😍

Oh, at least the White Sox have been relevant in the last decade (plus they had MJ in their farm system for a couple of years!).

Carry on.

Yup, from their usual banter than I choose not to take part in, it seems like this is correct.

If I were to argue baseball, I would say ANGELS!!!! 😀

Speaking of the Angels, I give you all the Angels song 🙂
