I just can't seem to get in anymore. I was pressing F5 and everything! :sigh:


Mdtichen, I'll get back to ya! 🙂
 
I've grown a beard over the past six-ish weeks (after my last interview) and I love this thing... but my girlfriend hates it (she hates all kinds of facial hair). I refuse to get rid of it... there are few bonds stronger than the bond between a man and his beard.

None of them are my type, but I can appreciate that someone else might appreciate them. 😀

Does Iniesta have muscular legs? I've never really been able to get past his face. He seems like a nice person though, so that's something 👍

That's fine, if you never want her to enjoy kissing you again.

Hahah I can't stand not shaving every two days, it gets wayyyyy too itchy for me.
 
my facial hair grows slowly, I've been wanting to grow a full beard for ages, but it never grows how I want it. So I keep a chinstrap and goatee, it works fine but I want something different
 
Just started some of the required quizzes for starting classes...

Seriously, don't they know I have no medical training? Why do they tell me test results and then ask me what to do? I seriously don't know what any of those acronyms means.

Oh nice! I may have to buy all new furniture this summer before moving, since I'm letting my GF keep all of mine. I'm poor, idk what I'm gonna do!

Flea markets and asking around to see if anyone has furniture they want to give away from their house or college, etc. That's what I'm doing and it's essentially furnishing my apartment for free. But I have really generous and amazing friends, which doesn't seem to be common these days.

Good Will in a really high class area seems to also work out.

Have you tried Craigslist? I have gotten a few good/cheap things off of there.

Yes. UW has required training stuff to do before school. One of them is called "Universal Precautions Training" and has a few videos for us to watch and some stuff to read. Pretty much the entire training was about proper way to scrub in, when to wear gloves, a face mask, how to put on a gown and the correct order to put everything on in.

However, the quiz at the end isn't as straight forward...

Here's a sample question.

Which of the following patients does NOT need to be placed in airborne precautions for evaluation of tuberculosis?
A. 35-year-old software programmer with 2 month history of cough, nightsweats, and 20 lb weight loss. CXR demonstrates RUL infiltrate with cavitation.
B. 40-year-old man from Vietnam presents with 1 month history of non-productive cough, fever, and night sweats. CXR demonstrates large right pleural effusion.
C. 30-year-old woman from Mexico with h/o HIV infection and CD4 20 presents with 1 month history of fever, cough, and 10 lb weight loss. CXR demonstrates necrotic mediastinal lymphadenopathy.
D. 45-year-old homeless man presents with 4 day history of acute onset of fever, chills, and cough. CXR with RML infiltrate.

We've been together for three years... but keeping it and dealing with the repercussions might be a sacrifice I have to make.

🙂 Mr. Hubby has a beard, so I may be projecting a little. It looks fantastic, but it feels like sandpaper all over my face.

Yeah, I'm sure it doesn't feel great. But it makes me look older, which is nice when working in a hospital. I'm 25, and it probably makes me look about 30. The first time I grew one a girl bought me a drink at a bar, which was honestly the first time that's ever happened. I don't think I have it in me to part ways with this thing... haha

You can immediately r/o (rule out) A & D, as they have an infiltrate a/w (associated with) cough; they definitely need precautions. I can't discern between B & C with any certainty, and I've been in the field for years. :shrug: Wow. Did they not have you complete an online course/PowerPoint beforehand?

I'd guess C, though, since it's a mediastinal necrotic lymphadenopathy.

They gave us a online "course," but like I said it only covers how to glove, wash, when to wear eye protection, etc. Luckily you can retake the quiz as many times as you like and they give you the answers after you submit.

Then you open a new tab and you're golden.

:laugh:

Haha, yeah, and you can't shave it off just for your GF, that would give her too much hand in the relationship. 😉

Union square? I've never been but I've seen pictures 🙂 Everyone is usually fully clothed -- not that there's anything wrong with that!
