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.

Iverson is wicked - look at his statistics. =\

Some say he's a ball hog. All I know is that he never gives up. Especially when he has to drag a 245 pound dead weight better known as Chris Webber. The Magic traded C Webb for a reason--he sucks.

The Sixers are the only unbeaten team in the East. The Jazz and Hornets out West. Whoda thunk it?

Sixers started 10-0 in '01 when the went to the finals. If they can do that, I'm going to start looking for my tickets to the finals. Until then, i'll prepare myself for more heartbreak in Philly

🙁 Figures it is the middle of the week. I can't miss my Tuesday/Thursday lab.

I'd offer up my mom and dad's house but it's nearly an hour away! UCSF won't pay to put you up like other MSTP interviews??

i haven't been in this place in ages...

where did you find that cool map Ana?

I notice that Miami, Austin, DC, the Bay area...all places potentially in my future, are nice and blue.

not to mention both of our current counties of residence...

I just googled for a breakdown of counties based on voting patterns.

My hispanic friend says he figures all the border counties are blue because it's 90%+ Hispanic.

I get off work at 7 pm; I'll try to call you afterwards, sweetie! 🙂

Most MSTPs actually set you up with a student host. Except UCSF won't even do that - they tell you to contact designated student hosts yourself. And these "designated people" aren't responding, lol.

Is this organic lab?

it is making me very mad....this week was the fourth game this season where they outplayed their opponent but lost b/c of turnovers. UGH! hopefully they will get something together this week...i know there is pretty much zero hope for the playoffs, but we still need to play for pride!

boourns, sorry Fe. did your status page change to say "correspondence sent?" at least you are kicking butt with plenty of interviews elsewhere.

i'm waiting to hear back from them...should be sometime this week or next. *fingers crossed*

You already got accepted to your favorite school (at least football-wise). Does it even matter anymore?! 😀

Still waiting to hear back from Maryland. Miami told me my application will be reviewed early this week. I'm hoping for some good news!

Wow, PSU's is pretty detailed and has everything except that. 😱 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_Penn_State_Nittany_Lion_football_team

Here's the Gators'. All I did today was refresh our ranking (along with Louisville's wiki, very lazy fans there). Also made our schedule table look nice along with the roster. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_Florida_Gators_football_team

I modeled it after OSU's. Very nice setup there. They even have the last game's depth charts. I don't know where to find that for my team. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_Ohio_State_Buckeyes_football_team
