Anybody ever drive from St. Louis up on I-55? Boringest drive EVER. And the cops by St. Louis drive sneaky little Camaros or the like, with super frickin bright blue/red seizure lights. There were 3 within the span of a mile. Glad I wasn't one of the lucky few.

Yup, when I walk out of my house on a cold morning I just walk right back in and hide in the basement.

btw, chuck norris was walking and came upon a car accident victim who was clearly deceased. He breathed life back into her with one single breath then promptly roundhouse kicked her in the face, thus proving the old adage: the chuck giveth and the chuck taketh away.

I have taken that drive going on 6 times now and the trip through Illinois is really boring; I usually take an audiobook to pass the time. Those police also have large suburban vehicles too that hang out right in between the I-55 and I-44 switchover so be careful. Have a great holiday guys!
 
Thanks for the tip, babyruth...definitely do not need to get ticketed. Have a great Thanksgiving everybody!

Starting forensic path on Monday....soooo excited!
 
Happy Black Friday. I hope all of you out shopping get mugged! That'll teach you to wake up at 4 to shop. GO BEARS!

HEY! We are from VA - where are you rotating?
Click to expand...

I was (until just today) rotating on the pediatrics ward at NMCP. Now, alas, it is done. And who knows what my fate is? Not I....

I'm hoping for an internship here next year....

Thousandth: You bring out the gay in everyone and remember, "If you close your eyes and pretend it's a girl, that's not gay."

Sether: That isn't me. My socks are light blue and have bunnies and duckies on them.

Lucky: Anyone who drives down Ashworth at 55+mph might be due some ticketage. I'm glad you're slowing down for the Pride Integrity and Guts squad.

Cremaster: You'll cut brains if anyone will. I've met some neurosurgeons and they're ninnies just like you. You're a shoe in.

DMACC: The bears suck. Not really. You know I'm not into sports besides getting lapdances. Speaking of which, Toppers here I come. Athens, get ready to have you single moms paid!!!

Dartos: Kiss my kid for me, and tell Natalie, "Yes she can come visit for Christmas, but she has to bring you and say you're our child."

Anyone else I missed: I'm packing up and driving to Athens tomorrow. I start 2 months of FM on Prince Avenue. I'm hoping it's coolish. My last 2 months of FM made me need therapy.

a) Hello sir, how long have you had a pencil stuck in your urethra?
b) Good morning ma'am, I see you can't breathe. Can you put out the cigarette while we're talking?
c) Hello ma'am. I see you child has a sunburn so bad that he has scabs on his shoulders. Do you mind if I murder you with this bag of prunes?
d) Hello, sir. I know you think that if you come everyday that I'll forget I gave you viagra last time, but my memory is much better than the FP doc.

Actually, it's not that bad. It's just that kids make me smile, and old people make me bored.
 
"Actually, it's not that bad. It's just that kids make me smile, and old people make me bored."



You just have to think of the old demented people as big toddlers and its kinda cute---except when they try to hit you and call you a b**terd. Whatever.
 
Hey portier, i'm on my masters internship. any advice?
 
So this is my evaluation for Derm.....this is what I put under "Site's Weaknesses"

Where to start. I guess I'll start by saying I was not supposed to be with this guy, I was assigned a different doctor when I got to the hospital. *******'s office was 20 miles from where I thought I would be so the drive sucked. Now to begin....Dr. ******* is, to put it bluntly, an overbearing oaf. I'm surprised he hasn't been sued for sexual harassment or malpractice yet. He has horrible patient manners, doesn't practice any sort of sterile technique (not even handwashing....nothing), and belittles women at any chance...including his staff. As a student, you act more like his servant for a week, doing various odd jobs (including trash..I kid you not....200K education to take care of his trash...awesome), driving him around in his car, and watching him check his email and download pornographic attachments....at a hospital. BUT WAIT, there's more. Not only is he known around town as a drug rep "*****" to be blunt, but he also sells his own products and pushes them on his patients. He is a horrible practice manager, refuses to update any technology and has horrible time management skills. He made me watch slides....real slides, not a ppt... and then proceeded to either take care of his bills, call people/reps, or fall asleep during this "lectures" of his. I think the topping on all of this was his lack of manners. During meals I ended up with half the food from his plate on my clothes, he would fart in the presence of others (including patients!) and not excuse himself, and just had an overwhelming stench about him. Overall I learned much less than I wanted to on this rotation. I would strongly dissuade students from rotating at Des Peres for Dermatology unless you could guarentee not being placed with Dr. *******.

I'm probably gonna get reamed by school on this one......god I just had to do it. I need to hire a PR guy....ah well.....the price I pay for truth.
 
Was the flatulence part before or after you pulled his finger? Jk

My advice is finish your internship paper asap. I finished mine the last week...scheduled time for it in the office.

My MPH paper is taking longer, but it's inherently more philosophical, so.... It's also giving me excuse to read more articles and books. I'll likely write it ths month or next depending on how this FP rotation goes.

Blizzle.
 
Hey, can anyone tell me how the OMM dept. gives written tests? Are they very detailed or get the gist of it sort of crap. First written in a couple days. Any advice would be great. Thanks.

Bad news for you Jbone.....since there's been a change in leadership in that department there's no telling what'll happen.

I suggest bugging some 2nd years and seeing how things changed for them during the end of their 1st year.


EVERYONE: 16 days to military match results :scared: . I need a new prescription.
 
Mr T and Chuck Norris walk into a bar together. The bar subsequently explodes. That much cool cannot be handled in one building.
 
Chuck norris doesn't get frostbite, chuck norris bites frost.
 
Forensic path is so cool! I wouldn't do it for a career, but for a month, it's great. Fascinating stuff, especially when you get to go to the actual scene.
 
I've got two "official interviews" left. One in MI and one in VA. Then I'm done with the NS whorl wind tour. I'm so ready to be done and know what the hell is going on with my life. It sucks when everyone says so what are you doing and you say I don't know I'll tell you in January. The good news is I think we are at like 80 some days until graduation which is a far cry from the 1460 days that we had when we started.👍 Hope everyone had a great holiday and is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
 
Hey guys....Athens is as cool as I left it.

This Family Medicine rotation is better than the last one, too. The doctor isn't the smartest out there, but he's a hard worker and provides great customer service and educates his patients really well. He's no academic, but he's a very good clinician.

I also like the clientelle here. There's something about treating people with Georgia accents that pleases me. It's still a lot of the same stuff over and over, but it's with people who understand the importance of cornbread and sweet tea.

13 days to Navy match results.
 
What sucks is that the only time I could get a critical care rotation is the month before graduation. Oh well, at least I'll be ready for ICU call as an intern, maybe.

ANybody have any general advice about the PE (the kind that won't get you into trouble for sharing)?
 
Classic stories, for the ladies in medicine:

We're at Panera today, and this mentally challenged employee is chatting us up about how we have cool laptops, and how we're from Iowa, blah blah. She asks what we're studying, and I say, "we're both in medical school". She looks at me, and says, "oh, so you're going to be an RN". I guess I can't put this all on her because of her genetics, but this isn't the first time or the last time, I'm sure.

When we moved in to our housing for the 4 weeks we have in Kansas City, the guy living there asks what fields we're going into. I tell him radiology. He says, "I used to be a radiologist!! Then I went back to get my bachelor's". He now has some desk job somewhere.

I swear to god, I might as well start telling people I am going to be a radiology tech nurse. They might actually believe me and not make any more assumptions. 😡

😉

This is one of those times when being white and nerdy looking gets you points. The rest of the time it just gets you laughed at in the shower.
 
I also only have 6 weeks left to schedule 4 of them being ICU 🙁 wasn't what the original plan was but I feel like I should do it. Online x-mas shopping kicks ass.👍

YOU ARE A HUGE NERD....man......what's up with people voluntarily doing a month of ICU.......sadists. I'm not looking forward to my month of ICU or NICU......that will not be fun time for this guy.

I also have six weeks to schedule in order to graduate.......IF I ever get my eval from my OB/Gyn rotation from the doc.......it's now been NINE months and he has at least 7 copies of the evaluation form. I keep getting weekly emails from schooling saying "ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US!" I get it already.......sheesh......there's only so much a student can do on his own to get an eval. I'm about a month from hiring somebody to stalk him.

I always get that, so don't sweat it. The next time this is what I want to do:

Older male patient: "Uh, nurse, can you get me a urinal because I have to use the bathroom."
Me: "Sure, ma'am, I'll help you to the potty."
Older male patient: "Uh, miss, I am not a woman."
Me: "Well, good, because I am not a nurse."

Another story is that I get done telling this mutual acquaintance, (highly intelligent although striaght laced, back woods, churchy type---no, not you Portier), all about my career and how I can't wait to be done with medical school, yadayada. And he states, so what kind of a residency do nurses have to do? I sat stunned, because obviously he had not been listening or was so completely dense that medical school = nursing school, I guess. I told him, NO, I AM NOT GOING TO BE A NURSE, I AM GOING TO BE A DOCTOR, like M.D., understand? (I did not even go through all the DO v. MD thing because I think that would have overwhelmed him.
 
thanks to dartos's wife I am a proud owner of a Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, it is awesome. Dmak maybe I'll meet with you sometime in the future and we can do some Wii boxing or naked bed cuddling😍

You just are. And you like your girls that way too.

Sorry I never called you back after that round of phone tag....I'll try again tonight if we're not snuggling to keep warm 😉

If we're snuggling to keep warm, you won't need to call.👍

Anyone ever see Eddie Murphy's Delerious? You know that part where he talks about his fat aunt with a mustache that falls down the stairs during every visit?. I saw that lady today. She called Jeebus a lot while I did tilts on her. "Lord Jesus help me save me help me save me lord jesus." "Heaven help me." "Lord, Lord, Lord." And that was before I even pumped up the cuff.
 
Thousandth and I are playing Zelda right now.......Wii is effectively decreasing my study time, which was low to begin with.😍 Just over 15 weeks left of rotations😱
 
The only problem I see w/ the Wii is that I would have to imagine that you (not just you cremaster, but everyone) would look like a total douche bag playing it.

That being said...I can't wait to look like a D-bag playing Zelda when I get the chance.

COUNT ME IN!!!!!! Can I throw your WII mote and break it?! Does anybody find the use of the word wiimote instead of remote offensive to wiitarded people?
 
You took my evidence, DMAK. Although I wouldn't compare Portier to a priest. We love you anyways, big P.
 
you know what the best part of these new systems is? All the old xbox games that used to be too expensive for me are on the discount rack for $14.99, sweet. I bought 3 games at kmart last night for less than 50 bucks, each of which was fifty bucks apiece a few months ago. I'm playing darkwatch first, the storyline is that a cowboy becomes a vampire and gets elected sheriff of an old west town. Genius, pure genius.

Thousandth, you are gay. Which works out good for me, cuz if you do it with a dude. Also, if you pull a train with thousandth, cremaster, and their indian houseboy, it is also not cheating. Sweet. Cremaster, is kelly any good with a video camera?
 
Has anyone noticed that the 80gb iPods are only 300 bones?

I paid 500 bones for a 60gb a year ago.

I hate/love technology.

I'm going to give my 60 to my bro for x-mas (since he cleans aquariums and needs tunes for his work), and get an 80.

I totally bought 4 remote control helicopters for the kids at my sister's in law's this year. I'm going to break ****. It'll be like apocalypse now. I'm bringing my Die Walkurie!

I love the smell of napalm in the morning. I wrote a paper on that movie for my Film History class in Undergrad. Good stuff.
 
Everything is Wiitastic. If anyone is board you can come with me on my trip to VA December 14th. Also for anyone who cares I'm back in Des moines the 22nd through the 26th. Mostly for family stuff but I'll be in the area if anyone is around. Another day down another day closer to trying to find out where I stand on the different programs trying to rank me.
 
7.

Next Wednesdy I'll know what the Navy is going to do with me.

Anyone have some spare seroquel or geodon?

I walk into Gamestop today to try to find a Wii for my fiance's bro/sister and low and behold they had 3 ps3's. The salesman talked me out of getting one though saying that 30% of them are breaking and if you don't have an HD tv it looks worse than ps2. I thought about trying to sell it on Ebay but he told me the prices were dropping on there too and I should wait until May to get one cause they would be $50 bucks cheaper. First salesman who ever talked me out of a sale:laugh:
