Hey guys..
getting closer to exam time, so I anticipate the number of postings to double to triple from the number we have done in the past few weeks. I am sure I will be on here a lot.

I am ******ed.....thought I lost my cell phone, but it was in my backpack. I guess neuro does drain your brain.

Peace out my homies

C dawg
 
Well, well, well......
I guess everyone is actually studying and don't have time to post. LOSERS!!! No actually you will all kick my A#% tomorrow on path so I guess, I should get to cracking!!!!!

-C
 
Man guys, everyone must be hardcore now, because I am the only one on here. Just wanted to say how happy I am to be studying all week for this awesome test!!!!!

Hope everyone shares my sentiments!!

-C
 
I am slowly losing my mind!!! Okay, maybe I was already half way there, and you are thinking 'Surely he can't get any crazier.' I can get crazier and don't call me Shirley. I had a dream last night that Jay Leno tried to kill me. Luckily I was only shot in the right flank and I managed to take Big Chin down with a 9mm I had under my pillow. Did I mention that I was staying at Jason Kidd's house for some reason? He was asleep and didn't even try to help me. True story. No, I have not taken Ketamine lately. Although I did score some fentanyl from Rush Limbaugh.

That is a good stress test. If you dream that you are being shot by a late night talk show host while you are staying at an NBA star's house, you might be too stressed, or perhaps there's neurofibrillary tangles in your putamen (whatever that is). Maybe tonight I will dream that me and Dave Letterman got in a sword fight while I was staying at Britney Spears house. The brain (or maybe more specifically, my brain) is so weird!!

Des, Des where are you??
 
I'm here! I'm here! Chris, no offense but your freaky deeky dreams with Britney Spears and some sleeping bag/pillow fight evening you had with another man is one of those dreams you might want to chalk up under "stuff not to post on the world wide web..." Just kidding! That is hilarious, actually and you know I love Britney. NEURO SUCKS!! And just for the record, I feel dirty everytime I say putamen. He he he!!
 
Hey!
That was my dream!! Don't give Chris credit for my freaky deaky dreams. It was a gunfight, not a pillow fight. My pillow fight dream involved Des and Britney Spears. I was just caught in the middle. 🙂
 
Bama,
Losing your mind? I think that's a forgone conclusion. Damn these baseball playoffs!!! I cannot seem to motivate myself with all this baseball going on. I hope that my neuro grade doesn't reflect it, although it felt good to see the Cubs lose. Oh and Bama, it could be worse you could have dreamt that you were being power slammed to hell by the Undertaker moments after Doink spritz you in the eye with acid. Speaking of dirty....after Des' comment about the cerebellum, I can't help but laugh every time I see a picture of one. 😀 If cerebellum comes up as an answer on the test, old man's ba%#$ better not be an answer choice. She's got me so confused! Even when's she's not here, Des is playing with my mind.
Disco Dave
 
Oh yes, I am evil and plot to play with the minds of my classmates....he he he!!
Can I get a holla from you guys for the new section? AWESOME!!
Much needed after neuro....
 
I'll take the initiative and give Des a holler. Where were you Des... I knocked on your door to give the money I owe you for scribing, but there was no answer. Oh well, I'll give it to you tomorrow. It is refreshing to be done before 5pm the last two days!!! I think MJ is on a quest to find the answer to the most pressing question of the section-Dr. Geenens or David Bowie?
Disco Dave
 
I'll give a shout out to my homie hunny Des-a-ray. I too believe that Dr. Geenans is really David Bowie in disguise.

Being done with neuro is great. I don't feel like I am drowning anymore for the moment, other than re-learning the muscles of the forearm and hand, as well as the rest of musculoskeletal in order to be a decent TA and tutor. Damn that stuff is kinda tricky.

Well off to bed.......

C-Money
 
I too am struggling to relearn my musculoskeletal to enlighten a few minds....not working out so well for me...
Not much going on here, gang -- I'm ready for Thanksgiving already!!!

Peace out!!
D
 
I hear ya D, I hear ya......

Someone on this thread has an incredible amount of pazazz and natural charisma! And that person is............you fill it in!

Back to the books.......

-C
 
Mr. BOJANGLES!!!

and........ME!!
 
This is a thread about one dog.....and one Dirty Dog .......
 
Today we are joined by Mr. Bojangles. Mr. Bojangles is dressed as a chinaman, as he has recently returned from an extensive visit to the far East....
 
Thank you, Ms. Colleen.

Mr. Bojangles is really a girl.........

Des,
You realize that nobody has any idea what we are talking about
 
eh eh eh-eh-eh eh eh eh eh DOGSHOW!

Got my new computer today....will never have to leave apt. again!
😛
 
Greetings from the Lou.....
I got to look at my Neuro final today and UGH!!! it was not as kind as I would have liked. Damn Bud Selig for scheduling baseball's post season during our neuro finals week. Des, I thought Mr. Bojangles was Sammy Davis Jr. Please educate me on this. Bama, have fun at home. Go Fish!
Disco Dave
 
Well we all finally received the good (or bad news) about the damn neuro final. I have to say I was displeased, doing worse than I usually do. Damn the man!! So tonight I will get sloppy drunk to aid in the erasing of the painful experience from my mind.

Have a good weekend and good luck on Monday!

Chris
 
Someone had to bump us back to the top. The quiz on Monday was a bit tough. It is hard to believe this section is almost over! Poor Bama, his collegiate team lost a heartbreaker! I feel your pain. How bout them World Champion Marlins? I may be paranoid but I have a sneaking feeling that Doctordes is plotting against me. I wonder if David Bowie...ah Dr. Geenens can help me on that one.
Disco Dave
 
What up--
Well neuro grades are out. Went decent I guess, would have liked a little higher grade but I guess a grade between an A and a C is ok.

Who else loves Biostats?????????? 😡 +pissed+

😀

-C
 
What up yo--
We were almost off the first page so I had to do something. Man I will be glad when this section is over......wait.......till Renal is over......wait......till the whole damn year is over. But then there is boards.......

How many disorders did you find in yourselves/family?? I think I am borderline on about five of them. Thank God I don't have one more symptom in each category or I would need therapy!!!!!!

Pharmacology Rocks!!!!!!!!!!

Damn the drugs!

-C
 
Borderline............. hmmmmm.......

feels like I'm goin' to lose my mind.......
 
k......

ummm
What are Madonna hits from the 80's?
 
DMC,

Help me out here. Wasn't it in one of Dr McCandless' lectures that he said when using certain drugs that if we took a holiday.....some time to celebrate........ that it would be..... it would be sooooooo nice? Or was that Pefley?

CD
 
McCandless bustin a move to holiday. What a great follies video that would be!

I had a question, I hope everything is going well for everyone. I was curious. Are all exams for MS 1 going to be case-based? All the other exams in FOM and 3 quizzes in musculoskeletal were easy compared to the Musculoskeletal final...but I'm trying to decide if I should modify how I study to adjust for case-based questions which take too long to read. Or will they revert back to the question-answer, sort of like a memorization test where you just spit facts back out to them? Also, do you have any tips for surviving Skin , blood, and lymph it seems impossible with the dseases, drugs, etc. I can't believe we have all this information in 4 days of lecture...it seems more like 2 weeks worth, and all the quizbank there is...
Anyway, thanks,
Anthony
 
I am sure that my classmates will tar and feather me for this, but SBL was my favorite section last year. I believe one of the keys to SBL is doing quizbank, Yes, there a 1.6 million quizbank questions but after doing them enough you start to actually learn things from just doing them. Plus, on the final you will instantly recognize a ton of questions. Concentrate on Hubbard. He has a lot of lectures and his questions aren't normally that difficult. You just have to learn the pharm, Sorry. The skin stuff is not that hard. Just learn the diseases and how they are treated. Dr. Mathys' questions are pretty straightforward. Try not to get too down in the section, It is tough, but it is pretty important stuff. Good luck!
 
I'll save the tar n feathering for the football field next week 🙂 but I must say Bama has spent one too many summers in the hot Alabama sun w/o proper hydration.......
 
I have to agree with my esteemed colleague from Alabama. Even though you'll hear SBL sucks and that it's hard, I thought SBL was one of the most enjoyable sections of the first year. My advice: Do quizbank early and often and when in doubt on Hubbard's or Matthys' questions choose all of the above.
Disco Dave
PS. Tar and feathers clash with my white disco suit.
 
Good grief - what is wrong with Bama and ODB?!! YOU LOVED SBL? Oh, right - let me guess, you also wished neuro had lasted a little longer. Suckas.
SBL sucks but it's all about prioritzing. Don't spend tons of time on Hubbard's stuff....be familiar with the lecture but the fact is almost all of his answers are E. Spend your time doing quizbank and knowing the basis of Buxton's stuff. Know the clinical characteristics of the main diseases (impetigo, pemphigus, SLE, etc.) and the cases will be way easy...no need to practice questions preparing for them.
As for my football buddies, I am ONLY KIDDING! You are both MVP's of the two games this weekend in my eyes. Bobby, too I suppose. Our focus now must be to annihilate the Chubby's crew. Yes, there are a couple of preemies on the team that whine at every play - ahem, you know to whom I'm referring...but I truly believe we can take em.
🙂🙂:clap:
 
Des,
Why are you all up in my grill about SBL? I guess you liked musculoskeletal with its exciting array of arthritis, gout and sprained ankles. Yeah, Whateva!

As far as football goes, I think I either sprained my wrist really bad or fractured a carpal bone, b/c it hurts like a MOFO. I can barely move it. I probably should get it X-rayed, but I'm not. There is no way I am missing the championship game. I would consider cutting it off before I let that happen. I know, I am a sick individual. As for Chubby's and their neonates, I'm not too worried. Our team has a lot more fire. It was cool to see someone besides me get fired up. It's about time! Don't mess with Uncle Kenny, he'll beat you down!! Now if we just had a girl who could get fired up and bring the pain............ 🙂

Des, I heard that Chubby's likes to beat up tea cup poodles in their spare time. And they said that you whine too much.
 
Bama,
I thought it was your jaw that got hurt. And speaking of Musculoskeletal don't forget all the anatomy minutia. I enjoyed learning about arthritis and gout but the muscles of the hand. Give me break!! When a patient of mine dies because I did not know the muscles in the hand is the time I get out the ouja board and talk to Harry Caray about eating the moon if it were made of spare ribs! Uncle Kenny was fired up. Des, I hear Team Chubby's kills tea cup poodles...I guess Chubby's doesn't serve E. coli burgers after all?
Disco Dave
 
Man, I have really been slacking. There have been like 10 conversations since I have posted last.

Good luck to all of you in the "big game" this weekend. I think the Chubby burgers are actually made out of Tea Cup Poodles! Yummy!!!

I just have a question for ya: What is your favorite planet?? Mine is the sun!!!!!

Peace out

Chris
 
"I like the sun because it is the king of the planets."

"Its actually a star, Harry."

"Well, all I know is when that thing burns out we're all gonna be in trouble."
 
Hey UHSers,

I have been accepted to UHS and will most likely attend there next fall. I got the grand tour of Century Towers on my interview day. They looked fairly nice to me, but it was a tour! Do you any of you live there? or have any opinions about living there?

Dubbya
 
Hey Dub,

CONGRATULATIONS on your acceptance!

I and many other UHSers live at CT. It's been a good experience for me, essentially saving gas for the car and having the school right across the street. I'll be leaving in July. I'm thinking of selling a lot of stuff. If you're interested, stay tuned.

The apts are about 500sq ft, perfect if you don't have a ton of big furniture. The 5th floor is always packed with UHS students right before quizzes and tests. It's basically all about convenience.

Some friends don't live at CT and are happy. Mostly those with families or husbands/wives. Any other q's email me. You should start a UHS 2008 thread if there's not one already.

Best to you!
M.
 
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! Dubya, if you like convenience and like having your friends extremely close then look at CT. I absolutely love living there; it's cheap, it's convenient, and saves me gas money. KC traffic bites in the morning, too.
SO....regarding the flag football game as of last weekend. Who's not happy? It's me. It's me. And to subdue my temper for a bit, I shall recite the following humorous lines:
Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Sally O'Malley, I'm proud to say I'm 50 years old. I'm not one of those gals who tries to hide her age unlike some other gals, and I like to KICK! STRETCH!!! AND...KICK!!! I'm 50!
It's not a difficult question...would ya eat the moon if it were made out of ribs? Just say yes and we can move on.

But mark my words: one thing I will NEVA!!! move on from is our heartbreaking loss to Lucifer's team himself (note the red t-shirts: coincidence? I think not). No doubt that some homosexual championship t-shirts will be made which will aggrevate me even more, but we all know who the real champions are...

The Kansas State Wildcats.

Peace out,
D🙂
 
Hey, this is for all the second years. Is JoAnna seeing anyone right now?
 
Pretty Mean -
As a friend of Ms. J's, I cannot disclose this information to you without proper identification. I'm not for sure anyway. Sack up and just ask her dude! I promise she'll be nice either way.

D🙂:laugh: 😉 😍
 
Thanks. But can you edit your post so that her last name isn't posted on the internet?
 
Good call, dude. We wouldn't want anyone stalking her on the internet....
 
I hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving and are enjoying the rest of their break!!! I don't know who ended up more stuffed-me or the turkey! Pretty Mean, I think there are several second year gentleman who would like to know the answer to your question.
Disco Dave
 
No, I will not make out with you!!! I'm here to learn, people.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone knows if Jennifer Garner is seeing anyone right now. Oh, wait I meant Jennifer G. I wouldn't want to reveal her identity. 🙂 Did you see Daredevil? YOUCH!!

Hey, is this SDN or Loveline? "Let's go to the phones. Steven from White Plains is worried that he loves himself so much that he might go blind. Is that true Dr. Drew?"
"No, its not true and stop calling Chris M., we know it's you."

Hey, if you were a hotdog and you were starving would you eat yourself? Come on, it's a simple question. A baby could answer it. I know I would. I would smother myself with brown mustard and relish. I would be delicious!

Des, I don't think you should talk about that team of Lucifers we played last weekend. I'm still a little verclempt (ok, smarty you spell it) about it. Talk amongst yourselves..... I'll give you a topic: The chickpea is neither a chick, nor a pea; discuss...... Ok, I'm back.

Man, I ate so much this week that if I wanted to haul ass, I'd have to make two trips! I guess I'll have to join Des down in the CT fitness center at 3 in the morning to burn off all of my Thanksgiving weight. 🙂 Hope everyone got their fill of tryptophan. It's the poor man's Prozac, you know. I'll holla at ya'll back in the KC on Monday.
 
Doctordes,
Since you ignore my pm's🙁 🙁 🙁 🙁 🙁 i thought I should remind you that Disco Dave needs to turn in his leisure suit and disco ball for some polka dots and an accordion. I only have about three weeks to learn to polka so mold me ole' great Desiree ...I mean D (I don't want to have any internet crazies(ie MJ) harming my tutor.
Disco Dave
PS. Polish Power 4 life!!!!
