Dolph coded and was not revived one hour ago. I'm horribly sad for his kids (11 and 13). Might be around the rest of the weekend, might not, depends on when/where the funeral arrangements take place.

HAHAHAHA. Biochem... 36 questions, 20 minutes later I'm walking away figuring I did pretty well. There were 6 or so that I wasn't sure about, but I think I still managed an A. It's odd that the course I figured I'd do most poorly in is probably going to be my best course when the rubber hits the road ( Read more... )

Uhh... I haven't updated for a while, so I figured I should. Had my Anatomy/Physiology quizzes on Thursday. It didn't go well... but we'll see. If the questions were worded poorly (as I feel some of them were), they'll bounce the ones we all got wrong. We'll see ( Read more... )

Med school hazing is FUN. My classmates and I got water-ballooned, blindfolded and made to play leapfrog, and led around town in our blindfolds by the second year students. It was a fun time - and next year I get to participate in hazing the first years ( Read more... )

All is well. Still relaxing in California and contemplating life. Not actually *doing* much, so I don't have a whole lot to report. Hope all is going well with all my friends. :)

Goddamnit. I finally got the CD from Marcel (one of the folks on the team in Badger) that has the Powerpoint presentation about the situation and about 300ish photos on it ( Read more... )
