i wish i could live in the john hancock building.•••••Why? It's a freaking terrorist target!!!

I grew up in a tiny little town called Lamar, Missouri. I'm in school in Springfield, MO, so I moved up from 4000 people to 160,000, and I'm hoping that the med school Gods will shine on me and I'll be at WashU soon! 😕 🙁 😀 😛 <img border="0" alt="[Wowie]" title="" src="graemlins/wowie.gif" />

I grew up in Ilorin (Ahh! I'm ashamed of myself
😀 ) I actually like it; but when I went back for Christmas in 2000, the town couldn't keep my attention for more than 2 days. I spent my entire vacation between lagos and Abuja.

My dad is from Kogi and my mom is itsekiri (sapele). When my mom speaks itsekiri, my dad doesn't know what the hell she's talking about and vice versa. They sort of alternate between english and yoruba depending on the weather.

My yoruba is rusty (damn I'm ashamed again 🙁 ) ki lo n se e gaan? o o mo pe ko si awon peeps ni yankee ti mo le ma ba so yoruba. Nipa miami 2002 reunion yen, mo ti di veteran. Hell YEAH!!! 😀 Mo lo si DC '98, Detroit '99, Houston 2000, ati Jersey 2001; BEAT THAT! so you can bet your fine @ss I'll be in Miami as well. Mo ma ma gbadura fun e nipa med school stuff; so that a ma jam ni reunion; hang tight (no pun intended). Aaight peace out!

Team USA 5, Team Canada 3....mario is hurting his team by playing injured....and the US actually has a sense of team unity....and some talent.•••••My mom is from ROME! I have a 2nd cousin named Brian from Rome.....you're not him?

I digress. I'd like to join this club. I was born in Berkeley, Ca and lived most of my life in beautiful Gold Country--that's Auburn, Ca, to most of you non-northern californian freaks (j/k). Auburn now has a Target. So exciting. If anyone has seen the movie, Phenomenon with John Travolta, that was filmed mostly in Auburn....

Went to school in Flagstaff, AZ, and lived in South Lake Tahoe post-graduate year and now live in the not so boring, but sometimes traffic-laden city of Sacramento. This city deserves more credit than is given....just MHO.

Cheers!
:wink:
