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.

well, you are allowed to use 2 only if you dont make it public that you have 2.

a lot of people use one to be serious in the academic forums for example and another to joke around with in the lounge. if you want to phase out one just stop using it and stick to this one, you really arent allowed to use both if everyone knows you're both.

This guy in my class made the most fricking awesome song parody about anatomy lab. I'm dying here.

If you've got a mailbox that can handle a big file and want to hear it, I'd be happy to shoot it over to you.

Durden, the bad news is that one of the cookies broke getting it onto the cooling rack.

The good news is, it got sacrificed as a "test cookie" in the name of "quality assurance", and it passed with flying colors. 😀

Hooray for quality control! :clap: :clap: :clap:

I used my new wok tonight to make dinner. I don't know why I didn't buy one of these years ago. :laugh:

Okay I'm going to bed, kiddos. (And by going to bed I mean shutting down my computer so I can try desperately to memorize all the classifications of viruses and all the specific ones he wants us to know. 50+! Ugh!)

oh and btw, it wound up being two test cookies.. 😳

but in my defense, it was off of a different sheet, so I had to make sure that it was as good as the first dozen. and it broke into like 4 pieces, and how could I give that away? that would be shameful. so I had to be a martyr, what can I say? :laugh:

I wouldn't kill you. Just, you know, a millipede or whatever other sacrifice the Cookie Gods deem necessary.

*phew*

of course, the offer stands for anyone who comes to visit. (except megboo- sorry, dear, you're down here too often for me to keep up. but I could do this for you once a year or something)

T didn't actually say if he was interested, but needs to let me know ASAP or he's SOL.

Can I start coming to your house for dinner?????

And how does a wok make it better? I'm such a cooking newbie!!
Click to expand...
It was just easier to flip and stuff. I usually get crap all over my stovetop because I blow at flipping the stir-fry.

But maybe I'm just happy because I have a new gaget :idea: :laugh:

Edit: And yes, feel free to stop by anytime for dinner. 🙂

Anatomy exam on Wednesday. Tomorrow is going to be a very long day.

But after that... get this... we don't have an exam for a WHOLE WEEK!!!

Of course, then there's exams Wednesday and Friday next week. But I really don't want to think about that yet.

How is life treating everyone else?

Heee! I'm glad I wasn't the only person who thought it was hilarious... I was a little worried that I'd just gone completely off my rocker because of all the hours I spent in lab today. 🙂

awwwww.. and you have TWO reasons to come out!
Click to expand...

I do have a ton of reasons to come out to St. L. 1) you, 2) megboo (who hopefully would be able to come down), 3) my best friend from college, 4) my best WoW friend 😀 , and 5) the highest crime rate in the country for some excitement.

I had to look up omentum - yeah, not terribly attractive!

And some of them are HUGE!!!!! All I can do is thank God that He did not include lymph nodes in the omentum. Otherwise, there would be no pathologists. So pretty much all we have to do is breadloaf them at 1 cm intervals and look for any obvious tumor nodules.

Will you have to deal with them on autopsy?

My college best friend (the Ph.D. psychologist down there I told you about) sent my build-a-bear a Cardinals uniform for some little fun last week. Being the baseball bandwagon fans that we are, last week he refused to wear it but now will happily wear it. After Halloween of course since now he's in his Superhero costume. 😀

My all-time favorite is the "American Pie" parody. It just doesn't get any better than that.

"My, my, this here Anakin guy, may be Vader someday later, now he's just a small fry. He left his home and kissed his mommy goodbye, singing, 'Soon I'm gonna be a Jedi, soon I'm gonna be a Jedi....'"
