Class of 2017!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
just a heads up to anyone considering St. Louis for med school...

the weather makes NO SENSE. ever. It could be 70 one day and then have random winter storm/blizzard conditions two days later (that happened last week)

Also, don't believe that "most dangerous city in America" bs. StL is a city. don't be stupid and you'll be fine.

From the Lou, and I'm proud (regardless of where I end up next year)

Hahahaha, Guero have you been stalking my cat?

Attached is a pic of her. I did not know how to link it, sorry.
Bahahaha!!! I love the outfit! What are the chances!? That's so unca(tt)nny! My ex is a kitty freak and shows me all these awesome kitty vids and sites. That was from Colonel Meow. You should look him up. They post some hilarious pics of him.
 
Hey look, it's Doctor Strange! :d Untitled.jpg
 
Is anyone else going to be directly affected(furloughed) if this whole sequestration deal is not solved? I so wish that we got to pick the days we'd be off 😛

Thankfully I am employed by the state and not the federal government. I won't be furloughed.

Missing all the fun! Then again, state employees have not been doing too well either. I think that we've lost ~55,000 public healh local & state staff in the last 3-4 years.
 
My childhood dog died last night. I just got the call. Apparently she was walking beside the road and someone was distracted and drove on the shoulder for a moment. They hit her and my parent's bushes. She died right there.

Definitely not the call I wanted to have first thing in the morning.

Really tragic 🙁 my condolences and I hope you and your family recover from this tragedy.
 
Too funny! What about his guy: http://www.quickmeme.com/Grumpy-Cat/ ?
Bahahaha! Yeah, I've seen a few of those, but not all. Those were awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Thankfully, even though I'm working at the VA, I'm essentially "on loan" by the nearby academic medical center. Even at that, we're working under a grant. So we won't be affected. But I feel for those that will. Furloughs blow, man. 🙁

Moral of the story. Always wear a winter jacket in the winter

I am glad the VA won't be touched. Yeah, I feel bad for those with families to support :/
 
Off to work soon. Only 5 more months of this crap.

Do you ever worry that you are going to be called the SDN guy by your future fellow students?

+1 Thank. Goodness!

Well, unfortunately, the VA will most likely feel it a bit among the non-essential departments. My crew and I are just outside that realm due to the nature of how were set up.

Nope. I'm never announcing where I'm matriculating and I'm making a new account when I start school. I've actually already got an account made so it won't be new in July.

Wow. Then why post so much? I figured you had some kind of internal reinforcement factor from seeing your post count exponentionally rise over the past few months...

<-----FAIL

So where you said on your mdapps that you made it correct again, that is not true?

So no Wake Forest University?

I was gonna work through the summer, but planned a 2-month long backpacking trip through Europe with the SO instead 😀. It'll be awesome, though I'll be waving goodbye to all my savings that I didn't already spend on the application process...

What? I though services for veterans were going to go untouched 😡

I could use this to describe a lot of cities. Most of them just happen to be in the Midwest....

Keeping my SDN identity. I don't mind if people end up calling me Doctor Strange in real life.


So... what you are trying to tell us is people already call you Doctor Strange irl... 😉

I post out of boredom

You know that and I know that, but the irrational fear of St. Louis on SDN is real.

I don't understand why this is necessary. What are you protecting against?

I'm quite different irl than I am on SDN. So not only am I protecting myself against a cat in the hat type situation, but I'm also protecting myself from classmates thinking the MedPR persona is reality and/or thinking I'm bipolar.
