At the risk of getting too personal, I thought it would be interesting to make a thread where we all posted our name, age, sex, undergrad institution, undergrad major, pharmacy school, job (if any), and anything else y'all think is relevant. I thought it would be neat for us to get to know each other a bit better since a lot of us don't have any information in our profiles.

I'll even go first 🙂

Uh Oh! My (lack of a...) dating life and pharmacy life have somehow intertwined!

I was on the "starvin' artist's" diet, but now I'm currently chunking up with the stressed-out-pre-pharm-wannabe plan! Ha! Just kidding. I had a feast for Christmas dinner and am feeling quite jolly at the moment.

We are worlds apart. Come take a photo class of mine and you'll look at the world through a different set of eyes!

Tschuss.

Ihr lustiges! Ihr Deutsch ist gut. Sie sind sehr h

That's funny. I had to look up "lustiges." On a German-English website it came up as first "a gay dog." After that it mentioned "funny," "a merry crew," amongst others. I've never thought of myself as a gay dog, but I think I see where the term was going. Personally, I found myself more of a cat person. Meeeeeow.

The end of your message seems to trail off... I am very h????
