nope, its actually the most common from what i remember. you, Q, and I are all commoners! :laugh:

And my blood just had to go and be different. :laugh: Okay, not that different - I just looked it up and A+ is only slightly less common than O+.

I wonder what my babies are - either A or O for sure (since their dad is O+). We've never had a reason to test them.

heh... i never knew my blood type until i donated blood in high school. i'm glad my dad got me on that habit. i love those cute donor pin in the shape of a blood drop!

as for the grilled cheese story, it's kinda corny, but my desire to become a doctor really solidified this one time i was in a hospital cafeteria eating a really amazing grilled cheese sandwhich. You can be like, whatever. Grilled cheese is grilled cheese. But let me tell you, I don't know what the grill cook did, but that sandwhich made my day.
 
it could b ecause he used gouda and tomato 😍

i love grilled tomatoes. i would have it every morning if i was so willing

ok, so there you go. you have the beginning of your amcas personal statement. 😀
 
what to open up with? my stomach or my hansel and gretel spin- lost in the woods, bread crumbs, witch wanting to turn me into stew. that would be pretty funny actually.

now i thought of using that as my opening. but doesn't it sound TOO cheesy?

mwahahahaha.

Yeah, she told me about it and tried to get me to join, but I avoid going to the Lounge if possible.

Lil, that was a classic setup. Good work. 👍

Just checking in you guys...thankfully, not very many pages to catch up on. I feeling really lousy, but at least the boxes are in the house so I can feel awful AT HOME. There isn't any room to walk (not that I feel much like walking though)...hope y'all are all doing well. Hopefully, our internet will be up and running soon. Somehow, we are getting a weak signal from a nearby house. 😀

Hi PW! Moving is so hard. Just yesterday I started to feel "at home" in my house and I had several days without internet as well.

I hope you feel better! Are you sore from your accident, or moving, or sick?

I will be thinking about you.
 
i don't know what my blood type is!!! i've never been admitted to the hospital, and the first time i had blood drawn for testing was about 6 months ago. how do i find out?
 
ah... summer... means two things

1. frizzy hair 🙁
2. sebaceous glands go into overdrive 🙁 I HATE SHINE!!! *finds a powder puff*

the jersey shore is officially open though 😀

Donate blood or get pregnant - they test you for *everything* early on in a pregnancy.

I've known I was A+ from when I was a kid, though. I asked my parents and they told me. I don't know when they found out. I'd never been seriously sick or anything.

My husband knows from donating blood.

I remember getting so burnt out.

What are you doing when it's over?
3rd year. seriously, i start my peds rotation just a couple days after step 1.

i dont have anything special planned yet for right after the exam. i'll probably pass out and go into a coma until rotations. yes, that sounds good. :laugh:

Ok, I wrote up the summary to this week's article in our journal club thread. Megboo, you need to post your article's link, and the rest of you who are participating better get down there and start discussing. 😛

I started discussing. 😛 I don't know if I really had anything very enlightening to say, though.

i scrapped most of todays studying. i dont think its a good sign when your brain starts throbbing. :laugh:

i still have 2 and a half weeks so whatever... better than going insane.

Yes! Glad to hear you are taking a bit of time off!

I saw somewhere (maybe it was a post from you) that Qbank was down for a while and everybody was flipping out. I would have too when I was studying for boards. :laugh:
