Hey! I'm surprised there isn't a group chat yet .
No, is there a Facebook group?
Yea me too lol
Yeah, you should've gotten an email about it.
I think there will be less of us then there would be at a SHPEP site. I also wonder how roommates will be chosen. Where are you from and what college year are you?
That's true, and I'm from Illinois but I recently moved to northern Virginia! I'm also a rising Junior. What about you ?
Oh , I haven't received an email yet
If you look up Duke SBSI it should pop up!
I'm a rising junior as well! Do you know anyone else who is doing the program? I'm also really excited that we're gonna live in Keohane, I hear its a really great facility!
wait i just realized it was put as a "secret" group so you may not be able to find it!
Yes! Two other rising juniors from the same university as me
I just looked through my email and I found it lol
oh great! so you're in the group now?
Yes !
thats awesome! have you ever been to duke? I havent and wonder what the area around Duke is like/ what we can do on the weekends!
dope!!! Hopefully more people will find their way into the group lol
Nope I haven't , I'm just counting down the days at this point . And since it's a college down im pretty sure there will be a lot to do. I kinda want to go to a music festival!
To be honest I'm not really sure.
Im not sure eitheir, but because it is Duke I am leaning towards yes?
i am 100 PERCENT counting down the days!! I really love water/amusement parks so I am definitely down for that! Do you know anyone who did SMDEP at duke?
I actually know quite a few. They all said it was a rewarding experience, so I am definitely looking forward to it.
I also heard it was SO rigorous,which makes me nervous!
Oh yea I've heard that too! I heard their days start at 8 am Monday through Friday. :/ But I'm ready for it, well at least I hope so lol.
I hope they liked it though?
yea me too
Do you think it will be exactly like the SMDEP program?
yeah very true! i just saw a sample week schedule and....woah. lol
I saw one too! it was crazy
hopefully we'll have a little free time during the weekday lol
Yea true , I really want to see how things go lol
same! what are you most excited for?
I'm really looking forward to being mentored by those who are already in the field!
Same! Im also excited to meet people with similar interests and i think the clinical experiences will be phenomenal!
Me too! I have to start packing asap lol, and what do you mean, what link?
when we got our arrival information under the email section it said this:
Oh! Yea I didn't receive either
okay! i just wanted to make sure i wasn't missing something/announcements on the site. 3 more days! I wonder what our schedule for this weekend will be like.
Same ! The excitement is killing me.
Me too!!!!! How are you getting to Duke on Saturday?
I'm traveling through on an airplane , what about you ?
Same! What time are you getting in? Also its really cool that you know other people going into the program!
I should land around 2, what about you ? Yea it's awesome they are great people, Im very thankful for having the ability to experience this program with them. I'm also really excited to make new connections too!
I land a little before 1:00, and i'm excited to make connections as well! I feel like what we do once we get to the airport aren't really explicit instructions yet.
