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.

woohoo... they finally corrected my primary application.... there's nothing holding me back now!

(other than the late timing, my low GPA, my lack of motivation, energy, and pie)

UMP, OSU only played 2 real opponents all year. Texas and Michigan. Texas's QB played in his first college career game so it wasn't that tough for OSU imo. Plus, they had the ENTIRE summer to practice for it. After that game, they played nobody until Michigan. So they had that entire time to prepare for Michigan AT HOME. I think you're right about OSU. Darren McFadden is one of the 3 Heisman Finalist. Top RB in college (less injured Peterson). I think we can stop whoever OSU's RB is...

Btw, did you submit any secondaries yet? Have you gotten an auto-interview invite from Michigan because of your stats?

MCAT is high enough, but GPA definitely isn't... I'm working through secondaries right now, have a couple of the easy ones out of the way already... I think I saw you mention an FSU interview? You have anything else cooking up?

No way dude. Girls in uniform = teh hot!

I have to say, I got less of that reaction from the real-life-me in uniform (although I do think I looked better in it than in civvies) than I do from my Samantha-Carter-avatar in uniform.

Ever since I changed the picture, people have been asking whether that's really me. Maybe in my next life. :laugh: It's kind of fun, really. I'm getting the vicarious fun of looking hot without any of the annoying smelly guys actually hitting on me that hot women probably have to put up with.

Unfortunately it doesn't end in med school or life either. Remember the thread I started in preallo some time back. The friend who told me about that situation sayys that most of his classmates are that way. Pretty immature in nature. Some people just never get past the they are better then everybody around them mind set.

Oh and about that situation, apparently something similar happened the year before too. :rollseyes: Oh I know it doesn't get any better but I'm glad that the average age of med students is rising b/c honestly, most of these people need a little life experience to help out if they are making these huge faux pas.

UMP,

You are applying this year afterall?? For some reason I thought you said you were waiting til next year. Good luck man!!! Good luck to you too Williams.

Oxeye,

That pic of your girls is sooooooooooo adorable. They are growing up real fast. Can't believe how much your youngr one looks more grown up in each new pic you put up of her.

Ohh and that's too classic regarding what that shirt she is wearing says.

Seriously. I got finished reading a newspaper article about women in Pakistan (if they're raped, and can't produce 4 male eyewitnesses to swear it was nonconsensual, they go to jail for adultery) and walked down the hall, passing an undergrad sitting in what I think were some very expensive clothes talking on a very expensive cell phone: "oh my god, it's like SO ****TY!! They schedule so many classes on Monday! I just can't believe how much this sucks!!"... I wanted to lecture her. But didn't.

I have got to start getting home earlier if I want to be able to cook like this.

Durden- your timing is impeccable, as always.

And for the rest of you- may I tempt you to 2nd look weekend by offering a dinner party at the penguin's nest?
