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.

Whoa - seriously? Do tell why.

I'm really really anti-capital punishment.

I had an autopsy on an infant who was murdered. I won't/can't go into details, but I believe that the person that did this should be put to death. Maybe I am just having a strong emotional response right now, but I do not think there can be any forgiveness or rehabilitation for a person who is capable of such pure evil.

Like I said, maybe I will regret saying this later. I had very well thought out reasons to be anti-capital punishment.

Understandable. My kindness runs out just before it reaches people who hurt kittens, puppies, and children.

I'm sorry you had to deal with that, beary. 🙁
 
so help me, I am about to throw my cell phone out the window. a number I don't know (which I think is one of my clients) has called me SIX TIMES in the last 3 hours (5 times during the time I was talking to my friend). they have not left a voice mail, and I'm technically "out of town" until tomorrow, so I'm not answering numbers I don't know. not to mention my hard and fast rule- I don't return calls, I return messages.

aaarrrrrggggggghhhhhhhhhh +pissed+ +pissed+ +pissed+

Don't worry it was just me.

Stan: What one thing does our society need most?
Gracie Lou: Harsher punishments for parole violators. Oh, and world peace.

I know the pain of which you speak T. I used the week break to treat some of mine with mycoplasm.

🙄 But I like my area code. 😛

I would like an 832 area code even more 😛

Not as much as you'd like 615 or 314. 😀
 
I'm a sucker for the cello. One of my favorite CDs of all time: Yo Yo Ma doing Bach's cello concertos 😍 He makes the cello sing... It's so beautiful!

I really wanted to play when I was younger but I have no musical ability at all. 🙁

I'm super jealous of your skills too, Nikki 😀

i definitely don't believe that you have no musical ability! you probably just need to find the right instrument--i also played violin for a few years and i sucked BAD at that.
 
guess where i went today?




the zoo

Ooooo - I wanna come! That sounds like fun.

Trust me, you don't want to know.

What??!!!! My turn to bust out the +pissed+ tonight.

Twin, I saw it too. When I had to enter my birthdate... I just though, "Oh hell no." and closed the window.

And go give the admissions office hell! 😍
 
Does anyone know what the name of this website that has nice pens and executive gifts? Molly has mentioned it a few times, I PMed her but no response so I'm opening it up to you all if you by any chance know what it is?

I recall it starting with a B maybe?
