YAYYYY GOOOO DENTAL SCHOOL. I can't wait to get owned. 😍
I'm totally excited 😀 but I just gotta finish writing my stupid thesis and defend it before end of April and I'll be super happy!

I am super excited and scared sh*tless at the same time 🙄. The day I got my acceptance to my first choice school (which was the 29th) I couldn't sleep and haven't slept much since.
we were chosen by the committees for a reason, i'm sure everyone will do just fine!!
Pre-school? Aren't you a little too old for that?
dear lord me too! darn thesis!
I second that!!! Plus it will be nice to move out of my parents house, after 6 months I am ready to live on my own again! Although I can kiss free meals and no rent good bye.
I feel kind of better knowing that other people are getting owned by their thesis too. I just want to finish the darn thing. It feels like a ton of bricks on my shoulders, even though it's a topic that I'm really interested in. But, I am very very excited about dental school!!!! I can't wait! 😀
I totally hate my thesis, its so hard to write when your results sort of work but not really. I just wish it was clear cut as to it either worked completely or was a complete failure. Then it would be easy

The thing is with my thesis is that I have no excuse about results not working out the way they should because I am doing a type of quasi meta-analysis where I am compiling the results of hundreds (possibly thousands by the time I get done) of research studies into one ginormous paper. The good thing about that is that I can work on it pretty much whenever and all the information is out there, I just have to find it. The bad thing is that I have to read hundreds and hundreds of papers. I feel sometimes that for every 10 papers I read, I can only use one of them. It's really grueling and time consuming, but I think it will benefit me in the future, especially since I will be going to a PBL dental school. Ok enough venting...😀
Hehe, it's things like this that made me take a year off before applying.
Heh, at least you're not doing methods development like me. Its a lot of banging my head against a wall for the past 3 years.....
Which school are you going to rollypolly?
How many hours a week are you really expected to spend towards Dental School?
Some people have told me more like 80, that true?

anyone else is dorky enough to be excited about studying head and neck anatomy on one's own in the summer? 😀
Wow now that is taking things to the extreme, but actually very smart if you plan on being the top ten percent of your graduating class.
Every night.
haha..don't bang your head against the wall too hard, you're going to need that for dental school. I'm headed for Harvard. Good luck with your thesis!
Laundry, I am definitely dorky enough to be studying up on head and neck anatomy in my free time this summer. I don't have enough money to travel or do anything cool, so I might as well. 😀
Heck yeah baby!!! I graduated in the fall and that's all I'm doing right now. I bought a sweet clinical anatomy flashcard set at the BYU bookstore and have been studying that like mad. It's got a sweet section on both head and neck anatomy plus head neural connections section as well. I figure I have enough time between now and when school starts to get most of that baby memorized.
