Random non-MCAT and only peripherally related to the MCAT thread - Part 8

[Arsenic]

---

Members don't see this ad.

how's your studying going guys? are you freaking out? burned out?

this is our stress relief thread....or our group anxiety thread, whatever..... 😀

for those of you that have no idea what the mcat random threads are about, check out molly's explanation:

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.

for the longest time i was really into SA bands... like this one

[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eG4xKeatrgs[/YOUTUBE]

 

[lilithny]

http://www.viva.tv/Stars/Player/id/13381/asset_id/18187/type/video/inter_id/434

and i really liked this one song. but it's not on youtube 🙁

 

[pingouin]

ok what liquor is added to eggnog?

brandy. and yes, you can add too much- trust me on this.

feel free to fill me in when you get the chance.

PS ... i might let kitty in today

is hubby going to help us finish off this thread? 🙂

i can't post ***** like i used to 🙁

I don't know Lil... you're doing a pretty good job in the last day or two..

 

[beary]

Yeah I'm not expecting any answers just venting. Immune system sometimes sucks. I just wonder sometimes the long journey ... its extremely hard sometimes. I know you guys can relate.

Yes it is extremely hard. PM or catch me on IM if you want - I can listen to any venting. 😍

 

[beary]

My prediction:

Trump by 20 points. He's right. Rosie's a loser. Sorry to the Rosie fans

I think they're both losers. 😳

On this particular issue though, I have to go with Rosie. I thought Trump's little stunt with Miss USA was totally lame. And then I thought he was obviously unnecessarily personal calling her a fat slob, ugly, etc., but on the flip side she was obviously making fun of his hair. Either way, the whole thing is absolutely hilarious.

 

[pingouin]

to nap, or not to nap. that is the question

 

[beary]

to nap, or not to nap. that is the question

Always go with the nap. 👍

My mom is getting all pissy about my naps 😕 so today I don't get one. 🙁

 

[lilithny]

ive been really bored

 

[lilithny]

i might go to the library though

 

[pingouin]

Always go with the nap. 👍

My mom is getting all pissy about my naps 😕 so today I don't get one. 🙁

yeah but I didn't even get up until 10am 😳 so wanting the nap at 3:30 seemed a little premature... which is why I'm still up at 4

 

[pingouin]

and traffic is horrendous today, and I still have a bunch of shopping to do. plus it's raining. 👎

 

[lilithny]

it's drizzling here... and now i'm wondering if i should leave for my apartment a little earlier... just in case it starts to freeze over upstate

 

[lilithny]

the year is winding down...

has anyone started thinking of their resolutions?

 

[Dr Durden]

yeah but I didn't even get up until 10am 😳 so wanting the nap at 3:30 seemed a little premature... which is why I'm still up at 4

Embrace the laziness.

 

[Dr Durden]

My prediction:

Trump by 20 points. He's right. Rosie's a loser. Sorry to the Rosie fans

First she takes on Kelly Rippa and now Trump. She needs to calm down.

 

[Dr Durden]

the year is winding down...

has anyone started thinking of their resolutions?

Besides post more, no. 😳

 

[beary]

Same ones as every year. 😳

1) eat healthier
2) lose weight
3) exercise
4) work on my spiritual life (get involved in a church and bible study)
5) serve the community

*sigh*

 

[lilithny]

i'm sticking to four:

eat less take out (which is possible since i don't order out too much to begin with)
be more active (which is a general form of exercising more)
curb procrastination (it'll never truly go away)
no more moping

 

[pingouin]

Besides post more, no. 😳

70 to go. get on that, wouldja? you could have that done today if you were motivated.

I'll remember that. I might have to go get some. And I'm sure he'll be posting this weekend before he gets home since he's on call this weekend 😉

Yes it is extremely hard. PM or catch me on IM if you want - I can listen to any venting. 😍

😍 thanks hon. You understand I know ... I'll be around tonight 😍

My mom is getting all pissy about my naps 😕 so today I don't get one. 🙁

BOO ON MOMS! 😡 👎

[Anastasis]

Hey Beary: I bought the first book in the dark tower series today just for you. See how much I love you 😍

I'm also very proud of my year end bargain hunting abilities... 2 shirts (one pink, one white), wine & gray polka dotted tank, 2 sundresses (green & one maroon patterned - Yes I know it's winter but I wear a shirt under them and over jeans, it's cute!). Total cost: less than $25 😉

Plus I was given the Fray CD today... 😍 😍 It's really really good. I really like the song Take Care of You... *sigh*

 

[mshheaddoc]

The fray's latest CD is 😍


Props for the bargain buys VD!

 

[DrBowtie]

Anyone ever eaten at a place called Old Chicago?
They have a 110 beer World Beer Tour with prizes!

 

[lilithny]

alright... another bargain shopper!!!

 

[mshheaddoc]

I am obsessed with "Love Actually". 😍

 

[lilithny]

drinking is overrated

 

[Anastasis]

I am obsessed with "Love Actually". 😍

Me too. Hands down my favorite modern Christmas movie. And It's probably in my top 5 favorite movies ever (but only if I count LOR as 1 movie 😉 )

 

[Anastasis]

drinking is overrated

lol funny you should say that... I just put a lamb roast in and I'm sampling the red wine I bought to make the sauce with.

 

[beary]

Hey Beary: I bought the first book in the dark tower series today just for you. See how much I love you 😍

Woohoo!!! I really hope you like it! We can have online book discussions about gunglingers. 😀

 

[beary]

Yeah, it's pretty good. Decent pizza and calzones.

 

[Anastasis]

It looks short. Should only take me a day or two.

 

[beary]

drinking is overrated

I just saw a thing on TV about how important wine and beer have been in every culture in recorded history.

 

[mshheaddoc]

beer and wine are VERY important. I need to go get brandy now but I don't feel like leaving the house.

VD - I knew I liked ya 😉 Love Actually is a fantastic movie!

 

[pingouin]

argh. need to figure out what to get my brother's in-laws for Xmas. they don't do anything together, and I'm not feeling very spendy. maybe a restaurant gift cert.

 

[lilithny]

i won't be able to drink until sunday. so it is SOOOOOOOOO overrated

big chocolate chip cookies

 

[lilithny]

my dad is giving away big balls of cheese. filipino tradition (queso de bola)... and i hate that cheese

http://www.pilipinomart.com/images/90_310%20big.jpg

 

[lilithny]

i think it's edam. we used to get them here in the states, but everyone said it never tasted right. then my parents bought a huge box of them while in the philippines... and guess what... they're imported from holland. so basically the stuff we get from the states is exactly the same as they get over in the PI. 😕 😕

 

[Dr Durden]

70 to go. get on that, wouldja? you could have that done today if you were motivated.

I've just been pwned.

As far as real resolutions go though, I'll keep mine to one: enjoy college more and stess less about academics.

I'm pretty sure with an acceptance in hand to your top choice, that'll be easy to do. 😉

 

[Dr Durden]

I'm even going to be daring and sign up for some art history. Not if it requires any scrapbooking however....

 

[mshheaddoc]

I have to make some cookies ... maybe i should do that ...

 

[lilithny]

i am so craving cookies

 

[Anastasis]

Awwww 😛

Art Appreciation is fun, if you guys have that class. I took it over a summer and really fell in love with modern art.

I think I may sign up for that eastern thought class for reals. Sounds so cool and it's too hard to pass up.

*hands Lil an e-cookie* 😀
