Tesla plz. And hopefully they drive themselves by then

 

[Pablo94]

Sounds like everyone is going to Europe. I'm using my vacation to spend a few weeks in my country in South America and a few weeks in my SO's home country in Central America.

If I start school in June we have to go in April. Otherwise June if I choose somewhere else.

Ugh a car that starts every time I turn the key lol. It's always a guessing game at this point.

 

[Kgizzle]

I just realized that neuroticism rhymes with eroticism...Anyways I hope y'all keep me entertained while I am at work.... Can't wait for school to start

Try out all the amazing different foods that Peru has, their gastronomy is insane. If you like seafood try ceviche (has to be a good restaurant lol) Or also check out machu pichu , its beautiful and its one of the new 7 wonders of the world. If you like snowboarding, you could try sand boarding which is preety cool. There's ton of stuff to do there !

Pro tip: Best ceviche is always from the street vendors.

Are you by yourself? While in only barely familiar with those two countries, I always caution foreigners who are by themselves not to try the gun-hi approach of doing the non-touristy stuff. In all seriousness, it poses a new level of danger that you really can't foresee.

Always wanted an R8.

But I think I'll be married and have kids by the time I finish residency so might be smarter to invest in a family car. Maybe during my midlife crisis ... lol

I know it isn't really necessary to have big $$ to buy one, but I am definitely getting a mini cooper. I've always wanted one and I've been told multiple times how well it fits my personality (although I'm not sure how one's personality can fit a car, I guess feel that 'fit')

For some reason I imagined you in an operating room, typing away while they performed surgery. But outpatient and consults makes way more sense haha! My bad 😀

What is everyone planning on wearing for white coat? Suit and tie? Business casual? Interview uniform?

haha getting an early start huh? I'm thinking business casual. No point in wearing a suit I suppose haha

 

[Fancy_Feast]

Ditching the suit for a nice dress for sure

 

[3member]

Drink the water.

Haha any ideas for safe* non-touristy stuff to do

seriously tho, be careful to always order hot drinks when you go out to cafes. was mindful to not drink the water in nepal, but ordered a special mocha frapp (topped with a nice waffle wafer!!) with a couple of my friends... and exhaustion a couple hours after..

 

[Doggeronie]

What is everyone planning on wearing for white coat? Suit and tie? Business casual? Interview uniform?

Interview outfit without the suit jacket, since the white coat is a jacket basically

 

[WhittyPsyche]

Im going with a WASPY look. Pastels and what not.

I seriously don't own any business casual. Not even sure what to buy.

 

[redsox93]

Pretty much just what you wore on interviews but without a suit. Buy a bunch of dress shirts and ties. Men's Wearhouse is a good place to start. You'll probably need a decent amount of business casual for any clinical stuff you'll have to do, especially for rotations 3rd year.

 

[laurenlee3]

I seriously don't own any business casual. Not even sure what to buy.

Just go to H&M and buy khakis or some other non-jean pants, a button-down, and a tie.

 

[Allergic to Toradol]

If you wore a suit at your interviews, you own business casual. It's as simple as wearing everything you would for business professional just without the suit jacket.

 

[libertyyne]

I thought business casual was polo shirts with khakis . If it is just suit pants with a collar shirt and tie, I guess I have plenty of those.

More like khakis with non-white button ups. But polos are too casual.

[Nietzsche's Barber]

Thought I could help the guys out since I am just a few months removed from my ceremony.

Bottoms: chinos, khakis, or suit pants. For the love of all that is holy...make sure they fit. No blown out asses, scrunching (on the ankle), or wide legs. At my ceremony, only a handful of guys wore actual suit pants. Fit of pant > type of pant.
-colors: navy, khaki, black, gray/charcoal

Tops: dress shirt (w/tie)
-shirt colors: light blue, gray, and white are most prevalent

Shoes: anything leather. I saw chukkas, chelsea boots, desert boots, wingtips, etc. Just make sure it looks good. Your shoes must match your belt (a hard concept for some).

 

[libertyyne]

Wear what the Dean wore last year if you're really trying to impress.

Would I impress if I wore what crieghton Jesus wore in your profile pic?

 

[Nietzsche's Barber]

Ive probably worn desert boots every single day for the last couple years. Don't really see them as being a good choice for an event as important as a WC ceremony

Important?🙄

Once you throw on the coat that probably costs $25 but feels like $5...your tune will change.

I get it...it is a symbol of the profession and of your hard work. But once you go through it you will see it for what it is.

And my desert boots cost over $150. They look great with everything. You will have classmates wearing payless and target.
