Seriously? A SIMPSONS movie? I think the last time I watched the show was during the Superbowl at DBK's house, and even about 10 minutes of it had me rolling my eyes in recognition that the time of concern is over. Concern may be an overstatement...maybe more frustration that the show has remained on the air about 6 seasons longer than it should ( Read more... )

Better version of the song "Every Day":

James Taylor or Buddy Holly?

I don't enjoy standardized tests...although I suppose I'd be hard-pressed to find somebody who really does. I have always performed average or below and I never feel it is an accurate representation of my potential. I dislike the fact that my ability to discern Electric Field lines and organic amine reactions will determine where I can study ( Read more... )

I wish I had time for this kind of thing more often. I just watched About A Boy, drank an appletini (my sister needs to work on her martinis...but not too shabby all in all), and chilled in Aggieville for a day. I really enjoy that movie...it elicits a slew (SLU) of emotions that have no name. I feel like the Inuits would have a word to describe ( Read more... )

Out of semi-boredom and just for a laugh down the road, I have been writing down my hilarious and ridiculous hospital experiences. Most of the time my job is pretty mundane: a lot of sitting around, getting paged every hour or so, sometimes free lunch. Within the last month I've had some head-shaking experiences that I would just love to share ( Read more... )

Nothing like a walk down memory lane to make you feel old. I wish I could spend a good week in Sophomore year, although I know I've edited a lot of the crappier times out and I couldn't forget what I know now. I guess half the fun was the innocence of it all. Still...not where I pictured myself after graduation. Anyone feel me on this? I kind of ( Read more... )

Applying for jobs...Sears, restaurants, etc. was cake next to this whole Med. School thing. How do I sell myself to a group of people that have been doing this for 30 years? In high school it wasn't an issue of "am I qualified to sell tractors?" Really, what the hell is a 17-year-old kid qualified to do? Afterschool job...not tricky. Trying to ( Read more... )

Those were the first two questions posed to me by my boss when I told her I was exposed to TB (tuberculosis) at work. I think a lawsuit wasn't even an idea to me until she began to insinuate ignorance on my part, that I failed to read the signs on the door or didn't get proper clearance. I assured her that I probably wouldn't do anything unless ( Read more... )

Does anybody have or know where I can get GoldenEye, the DVD...not the video game, for under 15 bucks? If someone has it I can burn it or just let me know where it would be for a relatively cheap price. I cannot find the damn thing ANYWHERE.

So having not much to do as far as classes this semster is going to be radical...attempting to pay that final bill will not. I remember about a year and a half ago, waiting for just one month with nothing to do but wait for letter of acceptance/rejection seemed far away. That era seems roughly 6 months away (minus the time I'll need to get shit ( Read more... )
