3rd time is a charm! 🙂 Welcome to the best thread on SDN: The Random Non-MCAT thread--PART 3!

This is a place to chill and talk about anything besides the MCAT. 😎

my user title used to say "Defying Gravity" in honor of the musical Wicked and what I'm trying to do as a non-trad.

then I changed to the penguins. and to see that penguin get blooped into the water over and over under the words "defying gravity", well that seemed a bit much. 😀

since we're talking food....

I went to Red Lobster for lunch with a friend today. Cheddar Bay Biscuits..........mmmmmmmmmmmmmm 😍 😳

We were so stuffed. The waitress says "do you want more biscuits?" YES, PLEASE. Every last one of them got tossed in our to-go boxes. 😀

Did you tell her "bitch, please!" when she asked? :laugh:

I have that recipe if you want it!

I haven't been online at all for many reasons today!!!!!

First I don't have a computer so I was restricted to library hours and they closed at 5pm. I'm currently posting from a place that we have in Tampa which is similar to Kinko's but 24/7 service.

Then other then that I was at a health fair with the Reach Out and Read program putting up a booth to give a way children's books to kids and help promote early literacy. The program is sponsored by USF pediatrics.

Then I was tired so i took a nap and by the time I woke up the library was closed so Instead I finished some Verbal passages I was doing from part of an EK 101 test and then did another Verbal test in full, which I'm glad to say I got a 9 on.

I probably wouldve had a 10 or 11 on the other test in full conditions and not made some dumb mistakes by second guessing myself on some questions.

But other then that I've just been busy studying, going to the lab, volunteering, etc.

What is the jist of the issue between Israel and Lebanon??

There has been tension between the countries for eons, I'm sure the list of grievances between the countries are long. The recent fighting has been set off by Hezbollah, a militant fundamentalist group, kidnapping two Israeli soldiers. Hezbollah basically controls a southern Lebanon and is based in a southern secton of Beirut. The Lebanese gov't has been criticized for not cracking down on Hezbollah. It looks like Israel initially kept the fighting confined to the south, but now it's spread and travel within Beirut is impossible because Israel has bombed the only international airport, bombed major bridges and roadways that lead out of the country.

I hope there's a ceasefire soon because things are getting out of hand. Plus, a good friend of mine is stuck there indefinately...he was supposed to come home on Monday, but it looks like he's going to be in Lebanon for a while 🙁 I'm worried sick about him and his family

every once in awhile i go through my clothes and donate--very scary


:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I've been thinking about donatig some old clothes I want to get rid of. There was a nun at the healthfair thing today. She's looking for used clothes that people wanted to donate, so she can distribute them to the needy. So I think I may get rid of some of my clothes that way. When I lived in the dorms they used to put boxes out at the end of the year to throw old clothes you wanted to give away into. Then they would go and donate it off. it was a good way to get rid of stuff I didn't want and not completely throw it out.
