And I get my first paycheck from Target next week -- so that should be a very good day. 😍
 
I got a 97 on my microbiology test! Highest grade in the class! yeaaaaa! :clap: Okay, now for the practical.... 🙁
 
My husband just got a 5% raise. It's his first raise in 5 years!

Thank goodness my dog and my roommate's dog are great at wearing each other out. 😉
 
I have a rave...

I have a really great o-chem instructor. He gives extra credit, and is very willing to help with anything we don't understand. After hearing so many horror stories about o, I'm happy to be having a good experience (so far, anyway).

Phil... congrats on your first son!

I remember in college, whenever my O-Chem professor made a mistake when writing on the chalk board, he'd hit his head against the board to tell us that O-Chem is suppose to hurt!!! Once, in a one hour lecture, he banged his head against the board 3 times and said he was getting dizzy! :laugh: I still remember chalk dust flying all around his head!

Enjoy!

(try saying it...it kind of grows on you!)

My rave: in about 49 hours from now, I will certainly NOT be studying for the PCAT!

thats funny.

Om, my rave is that my O-Chem professor/advisor is getting me out of this BORING, MIND numbing work study assignment and taking me into the chemistry department. And he said that he doesn't really expect me to work as many hours as I do now! Wo00t happiness.
 
I GOT A 96 ON MY SECOND SEMESTER PHYSICS EXAM.
YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


sorry, i might have gotten a little too excited
 
Reviving an old thread...

How about that UNC interview rocked out loud!! 👍
 
I picked up my paycheck to find out that I got a raise for no apparent reason!

It's not a very big raise, but it's a raise all the same. 😀

One of the joys of living in a super-competitive market! ...all the chains have to keep one-upping eachother to hold onto their 'talent'.

...now if only WAG and the rest would figure out that maybe better working conditions is a better RPh retention tool than an extra couple grand here and there.

Funny you should mention that. I helped snag a pharmacist from Walgreens a couple of weeks ago. Something about having well-trained technicians there to help the pharmacy run smoothly...
 
Just got back my results from my last O-chem Exam ......100% 😍

Now, I have the final tomorrow :scared:

You go girl! 👍

Maybe if you totaled up the scores of all of my O-Chem exams, I would have had a 100... 😛
 
Got an A in O Chem I! Hopefully that will perk up my app a bit.

Passing along good vibes to Smilescali for her final... 🙂
 
Thanks guys! The final is weighted 25% of the grade. I have an A going into the final, but I still have to do well to keep it!

That is awesome starsweet! An A in Organic chemistry is something to be proud of! It has been a challenging class! I have an awesome professor though! 🙂
 
I also got an A in Organic Chemistry! 🙂 🙂 🙂 I am glad it is over! Well, until next semester!
 
Uhh i hope i do good on my exams.. which i probably wont = (

Oh and I done ABSOLUTLY NOTHING today.. It was a fantastic feeling!

Awesome!!! Aren't you glad it's over (for now)?!

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

Thanks! Yes, I am elated that I don't have to think about Organic Chemistry for a month or so! :laugh:
 
I got an A- in cell biology (thought it would be a B) and I passed physics!! 😀
 
I got a B in statistic 🙁 rrrrrrrrrrr.

That class should have been easy, but I don't know why they make it so hard at my university.
 
my last final this term in human nutrition (on trace minerals) is in three hours...

I just need to get 5 problems out of 40 right to lock up an A... 😀
 
With one exam still left to complete in a 2-credit class (rescheduled for the first week of next semester due to the weather), I have a 3.8 GPA for my first semester in pharmacy school. All this from someone who had under a 3.0 cumulative at matriculation. 😀
 
My boyfriend bought me a plane ticket to come up to VA and see him for MLK weekend... 11 days still my flight (which is on Friday the 13th...)

You are right, the link doesn't work. Oh well just Google "Jib Jab" I guess.
 
Pulled off a 4.0 last quarter, so I'm stoked. 🙂 Was taking biochem, o. chem, physics and animal biology.

My O-Chem II prof was awesome, but he was older and from Poland, so sometimes it was tough to understand him. His solution to this was to wear a wireless mic so that our entire class (not too large - only about 60 of us) could hear him. He would generally show up right before class, get mic'ed up, then start the lecture.

One day he showed up early to class and hooked his mic up as normal. A student had a question for him and he went out into the hallway to answer it (still mic'ed up). Those of us already in class got to hear the question/answer session (which was actually informative). Afterwards, he must have run into some of the other faculty members because he stayed in the hallway shooting the $h!t for a bit. We got to hear this conversation as well.

Finally he realized that class was supposed to start and he ran back in. He reached down to the podium to hook up his mic but then he noticed that he was already hooked up. He looked up at the class and said "You're lucky that class was about to start - I was on my way to the bathroom!" :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
 
I just got an awesome interview suit for a GREAT DEAL! I saw a rack at Robinsons-May that said "Suits $99.99". These suits were excellent in quality and I wondered why they were so inexpensive (it also came with a silk scarf). I tried it on and it fit perfectly! Too good to be true right? Yep! When it rang up it was $300 🙁 . I showed the sales lady where I found it and she said "Oops I forgot to change the sign today, these suits are brand new and just were put out on the floor today!" I guess she could see the disapointment in me and replied..."I will honor the displayed sign price though." Yippie! I couldn't believe it. On top of that she gave me an additional 10% off! 🙂 🙂

I am set now for my interview suit and just need a new purse, as my big black suitcase I tote around will just not do :laugh: ..... any suggestions?

Congrats on the great buy! When I've needed a purse or another accessory that I don't plan on using a lot, I go to Ross or TJ Maxx - they usually have good prices and a big selection (on purses at least).

On another note, you're going to rock this interview 🙂
