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.

"Hi, uhhhhhhh, Pot? This is Kettle." 😀

:laugh: Kettle, Pot's all out of poetry papers to be done, but I do have an engineering lab report you can write for me now. I'll even let you off the hook for baking. Please, pretty please?

um, negatory.

although you are flying into town 1/2 hour before my physics exam... :idea: ...and school's right by the airport... :idea: :idea:

(there are only 20 people in the class, and she's one of my LOR writers, so it'll never work. 🙁 )

Well you just seemed to be on such a roll with those lab reports tonight, I figured it couldn't hurt to ask.

You probably don't want me taking your physics exam for you anyway. It's been a few years and all this Jane Austen has crowded out those formulas in my head.
 
let me tell you what's not helping. she gave us a practice exam and an answer key. which is awesome.

except they're TWO DIFFERENT TESTS. So on the practice exam, it's a current of 1A on a 1m wire creating B= 15T... but on the answer key, it's 5A creating B= 6T

AAAAAAAAAARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH 😡

Twice the practice and twice the fun!

But I think it's time for me to call it a night as well. I do have a busy week ahead of me. 🙂
 
uh oh...............

jlw can you teach me orgo and put the E to the I in the E-I, E-I?

uh oh................
 
It must have been the L in the back of the benzee...

Anyway congrats on the orgo 😉
 
Sorry - I just had an ah-ha moment driving home from San Antonio. I'm going to be a great doctor no matter where I end up for medical school and I really don't care how long it takes me to get in. Vandy can kiss my butt if they don't see that.

Totally agreed. Excellent attitude! 😍
 
Wow, getting up early really helps! I'm not rushing, I have time to do stuff before school. However, I know this won't last long 😛

Yeah, I "started" at 8 but am sitting at home in my pajamas. 😳 I'll be there in time for my 9 AM meeting though. 😀
 
T has done lost his mind :scared:

(OK, I'm out. 😴 )

Nah, he's just getting in character for his visit to Nellyville on Thursday. 😉

The "War on the Set!" of Grey's Anatomy is on the cover of US Weekly.

Celebrity gossip magazines are SO one of my favorite guilty pleasures. 😀

😱 *dashes to nearest news stand*


:laugh: Hoooray WashU interview this week!

Registration isn't working!😡 +pissed+ +pissed+ 😡

Aww, someone not being allowed to sign up for more art history?
 
I am going to try to go to the am classes this week after skipping most of them last week. If I don't find them amazingly useful I think I'm just going to stop. Yes, I like lecture. But I like not having to get out of bed at 6:30 am even more. 🙂

I love hearing med students say that lectures are not necessary! :clap:
 
This is funny!

yeah, I don't think we've gotten there yet. don't be a buzzkill, man. and thank you.

Really? I've never been to St. Louis, but I've been to Detroit and that place scares the poop out of me
it depends on the neighborhood. of course, the fastest way for me to get from work to school twice a week is through one of the worst ones, but it's been 2 years and I haven't gotten shot yet!

WTG! AWESOME!!!

woot!

thanks for the b-day e-card!

thanks, guys!

and megboo- :hardy: HBDTY! HBDTY! HBDDearMegboo! HBDTY!!!!! :hardy:

and I'll be happy to show you and T some of our "finer" neighborhoods this week if you'd like. 😀
 
So after 2 hours fighting the computer system I am in 4 of 5 classes.
The 5th one stupidly has the class itself as a prereq +pissed+

I've spent my morning so far doing these stupid "mandatory competencies" about fire safety, critical incidents, HIPAA, etc. :barf:

And now I have to do chemistry work!!! WTF is this? 😉
 
yes, well, with our cities rivaling each other for "most dangerous", as well as the already- blazing Red Wings/Blues rivalry, and now us KICKING SOME TIGER BUTT in the World Series.... things could get a little more interesting
More interesting than the 2nd most dangerous city in the country?!? *withdraws app*
