Exact same here. I've been seriously slacking at work for the last month or so (I'm not hourly and don't have to clock in), and now it will feel very anticlimactic leaving lol.
lol I’m also not hourly.
My final day of work was last Friday as well! I went straight from working to moving to the opposite coast...by car....we're finally going to be arriving tomorrow. x___x
I also just noticed it's been 5 years since I've joined SDN. It's unbelievable that I will be starting med school in a month while 5 years ago I wasn't even sure what the MCAT was (searched MCAT and SDN ended up in the results somewhere).
That's quite the drive! 0.0 I didn't even consider applying to the opposite coast at all. I hope you enjoyed part of your road trip at least!
Thank you-- it's been beautiful! I was born/raised in the Northeast and have hermited here for my adult life thus far, so it's been really cool to see so much of the US over the last week 🙂 Such an adventure!
lol 5 years ago, I was working in a lab during the summer before my junior year....and got all of my wisdom teeth taken out under local...much happier now hahaI also just noticed it's been 5 years since I've joined SDN. It's unbelievable that I will be starting med school in a month while 5 years ago I wasn't even sure what the MCAT was (searched MCAT and SDN ended up in the results somewhere).
I wonder what everyone else was doing 5 years ago. Looking forward to where I'll stand after another 5 years.
Is there booze?
Lol would be a nice recipe for drunk posting
I fail to see the problem.
Is your family moving with you? I'm also going across the country.
My family helped me move across but we'll be on opposite coasts soon :c It's gonna be so weird!
The first few seasons are good . The later seasons are attrocious.
Priced to sell on Craigslist (and your apartment elevator if you have one) works wonders. I didn't make much money but got rid of a couch, 8 year old heavy TV, boxspring/frame, etc in less than 5 days. I'd have paid to get rid of it, honesty.
Try the American Kidney Fund for furniture donation. They're pretty quick about pick ups.
So ... shelled out $3k for a Macbook ........... Don't know if I'm excited or sad about my purchase .... lol
Would somebody convince me differently to return and buy something else?
These are the hard requirements for laptops at my school. And only if it meets requirements will the price be added onto the COA and allowed for finaid. Anything else (like tablets, etc) isn't allowed.....
- Intel Core i5, i7, or higher family of processors OR AMD A-Series, Athlon 5000, or Athlon X4 series processors
- 2.4 GHz (CPU); speed (Intel Core Duo)
- 14” or higher display running 1366 X 768 resolution or higher
- 500 GB hard drive
- 8 GB RAM
My original plan was to just get a Surface Pro, but that's out of the picture now. Unless ... do I just get a burner laptop and get a tablet? Since I won't be able to get extra finaid for it, it'll eat into my COA.
Or do I just say eff it and think "What's $3k in the aspect of $250k of debt...??"

Yup ... think I might just eff it and keep the Mcabook ... lolol
There were surface pro 4 s going for 850 with the I-5 256 configs yesterday.
Not really interested in a tablet though. I'm more of a laptop person
I'm flying out across the country the day before class starts. I think I'm on the same crazy boat as you...
A titer is just a test to see if you are immune. If you have dates showing when you got the shots than you don't need the titer. If for some reason you don't trust your parents and think they forged your immunization record than you can get a titer just in case.
Sadly, my school required the vaccine series PLUS a quantitative titer. Annoying since I lost my insurance coverage when I graduated in May and tried to foresee these kinds of things (but didn't expect this). Luckily I called the school and since I'll be on their plan in August and can get it done then, they were okay with it. But in my experience, proof of the vaccine series wasn't enough. 🙁
Ya that can definitely vary by school. Mine just required the dates. Which is what I was assuming the other poster was referring to. I didn't have insurance either, this whole move is costing a fortune.
