Lovely getting sick around finals 👍

So we had this extremely homo meeting at work today. Part of it was spent telling us, that to get ahead in the company we needed to "go above and beyond our normal job duties." 🙄 Because, of course, how can they expect to give us more responsibilities if we can't handle what we already have to do 🙄 Then the QA manager came and gave us a lecture about how meticulous we had to be, all the while asking the most ******ed questions "does every one know what the FDA stands for?" for example. Some genius then interrupts the meeting for some odd reason to know why a sample being tested was ordered to be kept at minus 40 C. Because according to him, everything below 0 freezes 🙄 By the end of the meeting I was just openly rolling my eyes at everyone every few minutes :laugh:

At least he specified -40 C, as opposed to -40 F. Oh, but wait, those are the same!!🙄

Darn right you are. I haven't even mentioned flag football Tuesdays yet 😀

So anyone else notice all the texas threads popping up lately? Of course we all know which is the best one 😀

They'll die off rather quickly. Accept no substitutions. If they were smart, even heads of state would come here to consult us.

Truth be told, I'm just glad I'm not reapplying this year!! I honestly don't know what I would have done if I didn't get accepted this year, and I feel bad for all those who are stuck reapplying (again!).

I hear ya cpa, if I had to do all of this a third year, I can't even imagine how discouraged I would be!
 
Hello fellow out of staters for Texas! I grew up in Texas until my parents moved us away (blah) So I have a 3.14 undergrad GPA and a 38R Mcat... I am starting the Georgetown SMP program this Fall, but am trying desperately to get back to the state of Texas!

So in all of your experiences with applying and what not, do I stand a chance at any of the Texas Medical Schools? Which ones would you recommend? Any advice or encouragement would be great! THANKS!!!

Welcome!! Well you're a little different haha. How's your sci gpa? Is there an upward trend? What else can you tell us about what's going to be on your app? You should definitely apply to all TMDSAS schools. Tell us more....I don't remember the finer legal points on residency, and that's the biggie.

Then again, you did leave tx and now you've come crawling back? You no el accepto.😛

The GPA is going to hurt you - no getting around that, and you probably are no longer a Texas resident. dd can attest to that one! Stand a chance? sure. Which do I recommend? All of them. Any other advice? Ignore zulu-slayer, and come find your roots!! Make sure you show some ties to Texas in your PS, and be able to demonstrate said same in your activities, interests, etc.

Go Spurs Go!! (that's the encouragement part!!) Good luck!

Awesome mcat by the way 👍 But yeah emphasize the texas ties in your app. It's tough going oos, I think I'm a fluke 😛 I've heard anecdotally gpa is highly emphasized in some of the schools, though I don't know for sure. Your best shot is definitely rocking out the smp, and maybe sending in updates after your first semester if you've been given interviews and not been accepted. Good luck!
 
Thanks for all the great advice everyone! So, I am definitely out of state now as my parents moved us away right before I started high school... My wife and I want to live move back to Texas and live there permanently, so going to a Texas school would be great because then i would get to know all of my future Colleagues!

I am going to be applying here soon, and hopefully the SMP and my MCAT score/ ties to Texas will be enough to get me in the door. My Aunt and Uncle and cousins still live there. In fact my cousin is currently attending UT Houston Medical school! Anyway, thanks for all of the input, good to know if I even have a chance. Thanks!!

I guess you're either dd or kudu. Great to meet you. Here, have one of my finest Cubans. Oh yeah, btw, you've got our #1 spot."

Hey:luck:. If you need anything, let us know. All of us somehow managed to get in somewhere, hopefully we can keep that streak alive.
 
Alright, so has anyone heard from their FA office yet? UTMB still hasn't given ours out.

Orbit, any news on the roach list? Gettin' close to that time.

Nope, I've heard June for A&M.

At least I found out this morning what I get to spend my economic stimulus check on...a new washing machine!!!🙄

Like I didn't have anything else to spend it on!

No news... sent another update letter though. I'm reaaaaaally trying not to get my hopes too high especially since someone in the Rochester thread said the dean said their class is holding quite well.

Got my FA today from Mizzou... loan, loan, and, wait for it.... loan. Its like 43,000 bucks worth of them. I plan on paying for at least 2 years of tuition out of pocket (that'll run me a cool 50 thousand) and doing loans for the rest.

I got an email just now that was titled something like "Mizzou Scholarship Recipient" and I was like yes!!! But I got excited too quickly...

"Dear lacrosse,

We show you as being the recipient of an endowment provided by an alumni member for the 2007-2008 year... please take the time to fill out this end-of-year profile sheet to inform the alumni of your plans for next year."

I feel like writing back, Dear Sir, would you like to donate again?

Supposedly Houston should be sending out something next week. I'm realllllllllly pulling for the $1,000 scholarship loophole, but don't want to get my hopes up.

You, my friend, must have some deep pockets 😉

haha or your friend just made some smart decisions a few years back. I've never spent a paycheck ever since I started working, so I've got myself a nice little bank account that will pay my living expenses, and going to Mizzou for undergrad allowed me to save my entire college fund from my parents... 2 years tuition stocked away!

Hmmm...I thought Mizzou would be cheaper than that. Last year my package was ~34k, and ~23k in loans.

Haha...that email makes it sound like those charities where you donate and get letters and photos from the people you're supporting.

Don't they give that to all of you guys...I mean there's so few oos it'd be a slap in the face if you didn't haha.

Yeah... and we just had a campus-wide tuition increase of about 4.1%... which brings M1 tuition to about 24,000 👎

"For only 78 cents a day you can support your very own struggling medical student so they don't have to sleep in the library and steal food from the patients in the hospital..."

Honestly, I have no idea. I hope they give us all scholarships. I mean there are probably like a dozen oos last year at houston, so yeah would be sort of a slap in the face, but I'd get over it. What's an extra ten grand a year right 🙁

"For only 78 cents a day you can support your very own struggling medical student so they don't have to sleep in the library and steal food from the patients in the hospital..."

I've got a starbucks addiction, that's going to cost a lot more than 78 cents a day 😛
 
How has everyone's weekend been?

pretty busy. worked in the yard yesterday - it was gorgeous. Tomorrow is my son's birthday, so we've been trying to get stuff together for that. No party, just stuff. Also, my brother and his family are coming into town on Tuesday, so I need to have my house clean by then. (I need to, but I won't 😉)

At least my washing machine healed itself, so I've been able to do laundry.🙄
 
Happy Cinco de Mayo and Happy Birthday to cpa's son! :hardy::hardy::hardy:

Nothing like celebrating the winning of a battle that has absolutely nothing to do with our country by drinking lots of beer 😀

So on a med school related note...I was taking a look at my SAR (really the first time I've ever done this), do we want a high EFC or a low one? I've yet to get a finaid pacakge from houston, so I'm trying to predict what I'll be getting.

the lower the better. the EFC is estimated financial contribution aka "what you can pay out of pocket now towards med school."
 
Happy Cinco de Mayo and Happy Birthday to cpa's son! :hardy::hardy::hardy:

Thanks! He had a good day, and I looked like the amazing great mom that I am.🙄 A book he has been looking forward to is being released tomorrow, and I preordered it on Amazon on Friday, and it arrived today.😀 I was able to give it to him right when he got home from school, and he spent the rest of the day reading it. He finished it just in time to take a shower and go to bed!! Now the husband is reading it.🙄
 
Today I went to my last undergraduate class ever!

1 paper to turn in, 1 final to take next Tuesday... I can't believe it's almost over 🙁

I'm sure they'd let you stay a few more years if you really want to 😛
 
Yeah... maybe 4 to be exact 🙄

Pfffft....like you'd mind being a Tigress for a few more years. With as much purple drapery as they wrap you in, I'd have a hard time leaving ever. Oh yeah, don't forget your sceptre on your way off campus.👍

Ok, listen to me. You've got to do this. You have to blow the final. Just don't even show. You can live with a 3.9999999 for goodness sakes. Then tell me what it was like 'cause I never had the courage to do it....I'm living vicariously through you on this one. Make me proud.

Oh I wouldn't mind at all. Would very much like to get to be a yellowjacket for 4 years though 😀

P.S. I had my Sports Medicine banquet on Sunday and they gave the 3 graduating seniors these really nice watches w/ a little tiger head on the face of the watch. I also got this award for "Excellence in Scholastic Achievement and Athletic Training Ability"... they gave me 200 bucks! Sweet.

Kudu, I... can't... do it. I only need a 65% to get an A... and I'd get a C if I didn't take it 😱 I skipped 3 classes this semester (first classes I've ever skipped)... isn't that enough??? :laugh:

Actually, you can go back and do some post-bacc stuff. It's not too bad once you've been out of school for a while!!

Congrats on the additional awards - you will obviously be missed by your friends and departments, provided they actually let you leave!!

So last week I decided to be nice and help them out at work for a few days. I told them I could work three days last week, part of yesterday, and part of today, but not again until next week. Last week was fine, yesterday I had a migraine so I didn't work (or do anything!), and today reminded me why I HATE what I've done for a living forever. 😡 I was chasing numbers that don't exist for an entity that doesn't pay taxes or even pay our bill (ok, so it's a charity...one whose basic name you would recognize). I spent all afternoon trying to get it done, only to give up at 5, since I wasn't going to figure it out, and my family was over at my parents' house, since my Ohio relatives all came in today. My husband is so sweet...I was complaining about my day and his response..."QUIT!!":laugh: I seriously don't know which day was worse - yesterday's migraine or today's work nastiness.

At least I will not ever have another day just like today - I will never chase down numbers like that again. 🙂 I may, however, have another migraine. 🙁

Jeez Louise...do you attend a college or a game show? I think you've collected more in prizes and parting gifts than you paid in tuition haha.

I just can't seem to reach her. She's too far gone...🙁 If you can't at least not get an A on the final, its over...you just don't love me any more. You think I'm fat, don't you?

Sigh, there's a thread in allo about highlighting "systems". I actually clicked on it and was halfway down the page before my lame alert went off. And Iwasn't even reading it to point and laugh at my screen. That's sad. I got through undergrad with cheap one sub notebooks from walmart and whatever clicky pens I found on the campus grounds (the Prozac pen was the best!!). I mean, I'm not too cool for school, but dang kudu, try to conjur up a little dignity.

You went back? Ugh. I think you may have found the source of your migraines. Hmmm....why do you guys do their stuff if they don't pay you? Sorry about the headaches, I used to get really bad sinus ones as a kid...I don't miss having an old wooden ship groaning inside my head.

We get plenty of money from other parts of the entity - just none specifically for this.😉 They sent the manager a travel bag yesterday...

I may not go back. Sent a message to the manager, and she said she'd get someone else to finish it up. 🙄 I think I's about done!!

Oh, Lacrosse, I meant to tell you...I don't mind if you take your final, and even do your "best" on it, but DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, SPEND MORE THAN 4 MINUTES STUDYING FOR IT!!!!
 
I You think I'm fat, don't you?

I've been having headaches too, but I've been trying to lay off the caffeine a bit. I looked at myself in the starbucks mirror the other day and realized a terrible truth....I'm an addict 😛

Whatever, at this point I'd have to see a non-A to believe it. I'm not sure why we've been wishing you luck on these things. Seems more appropriate to administer last rites to the poor tests. I wonder if your profs take it personally haha.

And I'm with Kelso, I love clicky tops.

Well, it was sweet of you, but if I were you, I'd be outta there faster than a leopard at a salad bar. How long did you work for this company? I hope they did something really nice for you.

haha I never understood why girls ask that question to guys... it's a doubled edged sword. If they say no, they are probably lying, if they say yes, you hate them for their brutal honesty.

If ya gotta ask, you probably do... and if you don't, then someone needs a self-esteem boost 🙄

I've actually been there 11 years. I got a really nice Seiko watch at 10 years. I'm just hoping they'll fire me still so I can get some severance!🙄 Actually, I kind of need to stick around long enough to finish my continuing education for this year, and hopefully get them to pay for my license for next year. For the forseeable future, at least, I'm going to keep up my license.

Is it odd that I never had one?
It's in the mail! It's taking up closet space, and you need it more than we do!!

Slightly, but not really...you were a late bloomer. Besides, weren't they recalled or something haha? Speaking of ovens, has your's slowed down lately? We haven't been teased with any tales of tasty treats in a while.

haha I never understood why girls ask that question to guys... it's a doubled edged sword. If they say no, they are probably lying, if they say yes, you hate them for their brutal honesty.

If ya gotta ask, you probably do... and if you don't, then someone needs a self-esteem boost 🙄

:bow:

Its a test they know we'll fail, giving the more pasive aggressive types a segway into bludgeoning their guy about whatever's really bothering them and/or let off steam. My guess. I wonder if the ladies ask each other this while out shopping....

Psych residency together? 👍👍

My friends never really ask "do I look fat in this" if we go shopping... it's more of telling me "ugh, I look so fat in this".
