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.

The flyers are playing at HOME when I'll be home! Looks like there was a schedule change! HOORAY! :hardy: :clap: And apparently I can get tix b/c they absolutely BLOW this year! So I might just save my money. Their tix are expensive!

I knew I'd lose it ...

Well people use auction sniper.com and throw in some insanely high bid for stuff.

I had it with 14 secs left. 🙁 I just really want this stuff so i've bid on everything but I don't see it really worth that much. These tests aren't supposedly that great. 😡

I hope they aren't around on christmas b/c maybe I'll win the one other auction that ends on christmas ...

so these are CBT practice tests you're trying to buy?
 
yeah I even upped it past what I wanted to spend to just make sure, but it sold for $76 😡 I don't think that its worth any more than maybe $70 if even that. I'm trying to get the materials rather cheap. A few went for $40, I'm willing to pay that. Maybe a little more, but the stuff isn't THAT good ... I'm in no rush. I'll be patient and hope for a little christmas luck (says the chick with no luck 😳 )
 
Merry Christmas Eve A! Its not 12 here yet though. Shouldn't you be asleep? 😛

ha, thats because you're in such a backwards part of the country. :laugh: :meanie: 😛

seriously though mush, just use auction sniper next time if you keep getting beat by people that are using that. i dont even know if its a free service or what but you should totally look into it or maybe hunt down some "buy it now" auctions if any are in your price range.
 
eagle?


Did SDN just have a hiccup? Does it need to be burped?

its from way back in july when i was in ob/gyn and our department associate chairman would yell at all us all and tell us, "i want EAGLES, not pigeons." basically that if you go into medicine you have to be excellent, "good" just isnt enough. i cant believe penguin over there remembered that.

honey, it was "eagles, not PARROTS". I just dubbed you "pigeon" because it was funny. 😀
 
just keep trying mush, i'm sure you'll land one eventually
:laugh: So far I've bet 5 different auctions .... sometimes the guy gives out "2nd" chance stuff, but its not really worth the price for me. Although for $75, I might just take it. I shoudl have left my bid at $65 and see if he would have offered me it ...
 
She's a special penguin. My friend sent me the "penguin" email that had the penguins smacking the one penguin. I thought of jlw! 😍
that's what I want to hear... thinking of me when you see people being smacked around. :laugh:

they may have to make a comeback. or perhaps I need to redefine myself. we'll see after the holidays.

lmao, you're right. my god, who lived through that experience with that guy, me or you? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

yes, he called us parrots. i dubbed myself pigeon though, i use to tell all my friends that while they were parrots striving to be eagles i was just a parrot striving for pigeon.

ok well I hope you guys get some rest. I'm debating going in to shadow tomorrow. We'll see how I feel tomorrow morning. I really want to but its in the NICU and if I'm not feeling well I'd hate for them to get sick, not that they can really get what i have anyways, well at least I don't tihnk they could. Got the sores down my throat again 🙁
