DMU-OMC Class of 2005

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
WELCOME TO Page 41!!!

KidT, give me a call if you'll be in desperate help for moving in....

jsdmu left before I can get that book.... He'll be back before you know it.
 
Has anyone tried out the entire medical terminology from the DMU website?

BTW, I got my financial aid reward today!!! Yeehaw.... Now I feel better about money flowing in.... 😎
 
Congrats on the cash flow, my man. Now I know who to hit up for some ducketts.

Fast and the furious opens this Friday - can't wait to see it! I don't think I'll need any help moving into my place - all seems well (a friend is coming with me). We should hang out, though. Let me know. I think I'm going to call you tomorrow just to shoot the ****.

Peace.
 
Fast and Furious looks like a good movie.... enjoy.... 😀
 
BTW, check you email..... I just emailed you tonight regarding your questions.

Later dude,
😎
 
I met another classmate of our looking for an apartment.... seems like a cool guy too.

Anyway, I'm getting more and more excited with medical school with every person I meet that's in our class....

BudumbumP!!! 😀
 
What are you waiting for? Give him the address to this site!!!
 
I tried.... But he didn't write it down....He was probably more worried about finding a place... Anyway, I did....
 
Wow 😱 we're lagging behind on the postings.... 😱
 
Amen to that, brother. What are we going to do?
 
I'm not sure.... I think most of our classmates have some type of summer plans unlike myself, of course!!! 😀
 
Face it, Po. We're nerds. 😀

But, if we keep up the workouts that I plan - we'll be BUFF NERDS!

NERDS!NERDS!NERDS!NERDS!NERDS!NERDS!
 
Yup, you're right.... NERDS!NERDS!NERDS! 😀

You're a riot!!! 😎
 
I just hope my grades in medical school will support that 😀
 
I have a feeling that I'll be having more fun that I anticipated 😀

What's medical school without fun and game?!!!! 😀 😀 😀 😀

Let the games begin!!! ALREADY!!!! I want it to start!!! 😀 😀 😀
 
WELCOME TO PAGE 42

Slowly but surely.... 😉 🙁 😳 😀 😛 😎 🙄 😱
 
Someone's tracking my number of my daily post.... at least the average.... huh, I wonder how I'll do?

BTW, here's the scope on working in the Biomechanics and Human Performance lab.... Make an appointment with Dr. Heiderscheit and he'll help you get started.

He will be receiving a new research assistant thus opening more doors for students to work in his lab.

Did anyone finish all their physical exam and immunization yet?

I alway seem to find something else is missing in my file..... I hope this doesn't become a headache come orientation.

BTW, it haled here.... It's freakin' June and it's haling!!! 😀
 
Wow, this thread is blowin' up! 😱 😱
 
The word is "WAS" blowing up!!!

Most of the folks that keep this thread up have summer plans.... so I'm sure once school starts it'll take off!!! 😀
 
HomerJ, you should check out COMP's thread, they have more people responding there right now.... 😀
 
HomerJ,
I'm not sure whether or not you'll get this post, but go check your private message.... I responded to your question.... 😀
 
Po - I'm pretty confident that we'll be having a good time amidst the storm.

Regarding the Hail - I just bought a new car, and I'm not about getting it dented. Isn't this the second time it hailed in IA? What the F*ck? I can't have dents on my new baby, man! I'll freak out! I'll kill someone. I'll break someone's arm during OMT!!!

AFGGHURHHFFDDGGHGHGHHGHHH!!!!! 😡 😡 😡
 
Actually it has haled here aout five times now.... one time it was those that are the size of golf balls which destroyed the cars in the car dealership....
 
New car.... I'm assuming you're taking that to Des Moines.... yikes.... careful with those drivers around here 😀
 
Hey folks,
Just thought I'd drop in and make sure you're all still alive. I just finished my first summer anatomy exam so I am taking a little time off to recuperate. Unfortuantely, it is scorchingly hot outside right now.. probably up in the 90's! Maybe I will drive down the beach 🙂. Anyway, I hope your summers are going smoothly... see ya around!
 
melancholy....

Nice of you to drop in.... I've been reading your COMP thread.... I was actually the one that suggested that Sonal (sp?) post up in your thread.... She originally posted out of the thread but told her how to post in your thread.... anyway.... 😀

My parents have told me how hot it is there, but here in Des Moines, Iowa it haled a few days ago and right now it's merely a 75degree here... by tuesday there's going to be a chance of rain again....

Everyone seems to have left for summer break....

Congratulations on finishing your first exam.... was it as hard as you thought it was?

Anywho, thanks for drooping by 😎
 
Ohhh btw, we're still alive 😀
 
Bumperino!!! 🙂 😳 😀 😉 😱 🙄 😎 😛
 
Po - what's been going on? I haven't heard from you in a while. How's the wife? How's IA? How's everything????
 
Nothin' really much here dude!!!

I'm getting use to the Iowa tempermental weather.... I'm trying to finish a book so I can get started on the OPP class we have during the first week.... remember jsdmu hooked it up!!!

I'm pretty much doing a 15 jog every night to get more and more into exercising.... Then hopefully move up to 20-30 a night.... I've gotten suggestions from long distance runners in this forum.... I was thinking maybe I can do the Dam to Dam marathon next year... get OMM from DMU students after the run 🙂

Just chillin' feel like a slug, sleeping a lot, rarity (sp?) to go, want to start already.... not use to not doing anything, etc., etc.

Did you get my last email KidT?
 
oppss I forgot my traditional....

WELCOME TO Page 43!!! 😀 🙂 😳 😉 😱 🙄 😎 😛
 
BTW, I hate not doing anything.... or at least have nothing scheduled to do....

I'm sure I'm complaining now, but once med school starts I'll be complaining about doing too much and not having enough time....
 
KidT, are you moving in for good when you get here to move your stuff or are you just moving stuff and return home? Just curious.... 😎
 
Here's a question to my future classmates that frequently visit this thread, if there are any D

Why did you choose DMU over all the other osteopathic medical schools you applied to?
 
Yes, we most definately need to discuss what there is to do in Des Moines so that Popoy can get away from this damned thread and do something! just kiddin'! 🙂 If you're interested in running, there's a running club called the Capitol City Striders. I think they meet at a park in Clive on Monday nights...
 
SunnyOne.... I don't think I'm in tip top shape yet to run with others.... But thanks for the heads up on other runners in Des Moines....

How about place to see? eat? go out? etc....

Here's one: What movie theatre is a good one to go to?

I'm spoiled in California were we have stadium theatres!!!

By the way, see how bored I got.... I'm practically responding on my own thread.... 😀 😉 🙂 😛 😱 🙄 😎
 
Hmmm, let's see.....as far as food goes, the Latin King (on University east of freeway), Gino's (6th Avenue), and Noah's (Ingersoll) are all great, especially Italian food. You can get fantastic pizza at Felix and Oscar's (near Merle Hay mall). You also can't go wrong at Christopher's in Beaverdale or the Greenbriar in Johnston. If you want a good tenderloin or shake (greasy-spoon food) try George the Chili King on Hickman near Merle Hay. My personal favorite oriental food joint is Saigon Cafe on 86th street. Furthermore, there is a good stadium seat theater, I THINK it's the Wynnsong 16, which is north off 86th street in Johnston. I'll post more as I think of it, but these are some highlights.
 
HECK YA!!! Thanks for hooking it up SunnyOne!!!

Your suggestions have been dearly noted and I will try them the next time my wife and I go out!!!

Thank goodness there's a stadium theatre around here.... phewwww I thought I was going to have to settle with the old school type of theatres!!!

Keep on posting suggestions.... I have the entire summer to try them out.... 😎
 
one more before i log off...The Waterfront, in Clocktower Square off University, is the best for seafood. Later!
 
There's a Bucca Di Beppo in Iowa, I remember reading. There's one here in Detroit, and it's got a great atmosphere and lots and lots and lots of food food food.

Not bad!
 
KidT

You haven't answered my question as to whether or not you're moving permanently.... It's okay if you'd rather not share... Just wondering...

Later
 
Man, was it hot today or what!?! What's everybody up to tonight?
 
Whoop - Po, sorry! I didn't even see that question you asked! My bad!

I'm moving my stuff in, and then I'm going home for a week or two. Then I'm coming back for good. Do you have any suggestion on a cheap way to get my stuff to Iowa? How did you move your stuff?
 
SunnyOne

It was most definitely HOT!!! I repeat HOT!!! today!!!... Nothin' much planned tonight...I'm trying to finish a book about the 3rd and 4th years of an allopathic med student.... I'm getting inspired to write one of my own....

I might go out joking tonight... yes I jog around midnight.... 😀

BTW, I saw that Noah's in Ingersoll, my wife and I are planning on trying it out this week.... Thanks mucho, mucho 😎

Stay cool!!! Or at least try to.... geez it's hot!!! 😱

I used AMTRAK Express.... I was able to bring 800 lbs of stuff and paid approximately $220.... It's the cheapest you'll ever find. Trust me....

One down side was we had to pick up the stuff at Ottumwa, Iowa which is about a couple of hours southeast from here.... It was a nice adventure and we didn't mind....

But with the van rental and gas it was till two to three times cheaper than any cargo company.... The only thing you'll lose is time 😀

The rest of my stuff was stuffed in the back of my Toyota Corolla as my wife and I treck (sp?) across the country.... We looked like we had a low rider 😀
 
I'm calling you today to ask more about it. Hope I still got your number.
 
Sure thing.... 😀

There's nothing much really other than call AMTRAK Express, in the phone book and just bring in the stuff.... There's certain dimensions (3ft x 3ft) and weight per box (70lbs).... Oh yeah, no breakable materials!!!

Just call me if you need to ask more.... if you don't have my number just email me.... Later 😎
 
Racial profiling is the latest news here in Des Moines.... I'm not sure about the exact detail, but apparently police raided a local Cafe/Karaoke bar. I believe the owner's were Vietnamese and that they normally get lots of Asians.... Anyway, the police handcuffed all of the Asians there and placed them lying down on the street despite the fact most, if not all, of them were not guilty of anything. They were just there to eat and have fun.... Just thought I'd share that.... I've heard of racial tension existing here before, I wonder if it happens often... 🙁
