how's your studying going guys? are you freaking out? burned out?

this is our stress relief thread....or our group anxiety thread, whatever..... :laugh: 😀

for those of you that have no idea what the mcat random threads are about, check out molly's explanation:

MollyMalone said:
It's basically a restaurant. That serves breaststicks. And lots of cute fruit and veggies. And is patronized by a HO. And Tucker Carlson. Vin Diesel, too. Lots of race car drivers eat here, as well. We're very well respected by the Amish... one girl in particular is here almost all the time.

The food is great if you're low on iron. It's not on the menu, but you can ask about the special secret garlic cure home recipe. One of the hostesses often makes weather predictions, but she's not always around. I think she has another job with the government. Or a government. Something like that. One of the other hostesses says "Bitch, please," a lot, but she's joking... don't take it personally.

Forget anything you've heard about the girl who died here from arsenic poisoning. That was a long time ago, and she's still alive, anyway... just busy so she doesn't come in as much. Besides, a little arsenic adds a lot of flavor to just about any dish.

Pretty flowers by the entrance, hey? Lilis, they are. Beautiful. And the music is totally hopping... we have our very own DJ. Looks a little like Brad Pitt.

I guess that's pretty much all you need to know. I'm usually in the corner booth over there drinking a nice glass of wine. You're welcome to join me, anytime. We're open 24/7.

yeah, shes great. shes been around SDN for a couple of years now but never "outed" herself to the public until now. how cool is this now? talk about getting your info straight from the top!
 
i'm watching a "dead like me" marathon... 9 episodes through

20 or so more to go

might have to go to bed pretty soon though


How's the studying Megboo? Take any full-lengths yet?
 
Czy uczysz sie pisac po polsku ? Albo mowic? Widzialem jak napisalas czesc, witamy...
 
NO FLU! 🙁 Feel better beary!

The flu sux. Hope you feel better soon b-dawg.

Thanks folks. Does suck. I just want to go home and go back to bed. My muscles hurt SO bad. Like it almost hurts to type. Just got another autopsy signed out, now I just have to write the report. And prepare my seminar for tomorrow.

Hope you folks are having a good day.

Rozumium jezyk polski lepszy niz mowie to, teraz. To nie lubie, ale kocham jezyk polski to wielu! To jest zabawa!

Yeah - I've got some Polish skills. I used to know how to read and write it better.... now I'm losing my skills since I'm not around a Polish speaker all the time 🙁 Same with Russian. I ran into a friend from the Ukraine now a nurse at the hosiptal my mom works at and while I could understand her, I couldn't find my words to speak to her. I was so disappointed in myself because I absolutely love Slavic languages, and now they're disappearing from my vocab. But - something to study once the MCAT is over! My Spanish has improved greatly though because I have a few mexican clients on my caseload.

No FLs yet - I've saving AAMC 3 for when I finish reviewing the material in EK.

If I can get motivated. I might be able to do it next weekend or the weekend after.

I have so much work for my business to do!
 
Influenza reports are really up in Southeast Michigan. We have Flu A and Flu B here. The Flu A was in the flu shot but B wasn't. 🙁

Should I do some serotyping on myself? Maybe I have an A and will just have a mild form since I got the shot. 👍 I probably got something weird in the micro lab. 🙄

I'm so sorry you aren't feeling well.....but doing serotyping on yourself.....how cool is that????????
 
but only because you share my love of placentas

Oooooh... beautiful placentas.

NOT.

I actually am not dreading the autopsies next month - it's the placentas I am dreading. So many placentas. Placentas everywhere.
