No wonder all I can watch is Rock of Love 2 and Flavor of Love 3....

I'm studying Lower Limb Anatomy and I'm watching Dexter on CBS. It showed a severed foot and Dexter said, "It's severed between the tarsus and metatarsus." I looked at it and went, "Uh, no." Then, I couldn't control my laughing. The damn foot was severed way above the lateral and ( Read more... )

Sometimes, in medical research, a study comes along that well...you'll just have to read it.

I had "Girls in Science Day" at school today. I worked/volunteered in the Surgery lab. It was for fifth and sixth grade girls. Great amounts of fun were had, but it's scary to think that if I was one of the girls in my high school, those could be my children. I felt old and very tall. Extremely tall. I was really impressed by just how smart they ( Read more... )

I had my SPAL today, but I am unable to discuss it as I am in the first group and they're not done until Friday. I will say though that I totally needed this. I miss patient contact. :(  *weep* I just have to remember the advice Dr. G gave me that my first two years will be very frustrating because I've done so much already. It's very true. I get a ( Read more... )

I still have not received my grade for my exam. *sigh* I really don't want it.

Yesterday, I went out shopping. Sadly, it is my only hobby now. I've become the most uninteresting person I know. I went to Costco to look at new eyeglasses. It's been two years and the stupid clear coat/anti-glare crap has become embarrassingly smudged. If I truly got ( Read more... )

I originally thought about posting a whiny entry about my love/hate relationship with Lower Limb Anatomy and my overall disillusionment with medical school, but I thought it could be best summed up by one of my favorite bands:

And it's done with such pretty lip gloss. Rock it, bitches.

I found this group online, The Amateur Transplants. I couldn't stop laughing. I think my neighbors think I'm mental.

For your viewing pleasure, I've found their music on youtube:

Behold, the Dorsal Horn Concerto!

I'd really like to know. It's taking forever to download the thing. It better have secret codes of awesomeness.

Look! Things I've learned! :D "Restrictive Cardiomyopathy"--I felt so smart ( Read more... )

I received the APMSA minutes today during the lovely meeting. I feel awful, but they can take their multiple alphabetically confusing organization names and shove them so far up their asses it would take surgical intervention to remove them. Maybe if I was 22 and just came from my first degree, I'd still be naive enough to care that other ( Read more... )

I went to class today. *sigh* The wifi wasn't working and I believe it wasn't working because the DO class had an exam this morning. You so know they had to do this because some marvelous genius went outside on his laptop and gave his friends the answers via pda or other electronic device ( Read more... )
