That's how we roll....
Just got home...It's Saturday night and it's 11pm (about to head to bed). No I haven't been drinking. I really am not fond of alcohol...I know what you're thinking....wait till you get into residency, right? Lol well maybe...but until then i'm as dry as a bone. Anyways I was hanging out with my old friend since elementry school (technically we hated each other in elementry school lol) and now we attend the same university, his name is Alex. He is debating on either sticking with nursing or go premed. I've been twisting his arm to go into medicine. We were even talking about going into private practice together (no that's not a homo erotic notion! lol). We were talking like a bariatrics/plastic surgery clinic in Atlanta. Chattanooga may yield a good return. I've heard so many medical students and residents wish that they took some business classes back in undergrad, so I will probably be at least minoring in business. Possibly get my MBA as well if I have the time and money. an M.D., M.B.A. suffix at the end of my name would be pretty cool, right? We would own this area because entering the profession as a surgeon has a whole new feeling (Scrubs reference). Because that's how we roll....

My moment of truth....
First off, I'd like to delve a bit into the social part of my life. Lately, with my phone being cut off due to my car breaking down and no way of getting to the store to pay my bill, I have been feeling a bit socially isolated. Finally a week before class started I got it fix and I have been driving to my local favorite study spot to...well you know...study. Believe it or not, but girls hit on me moreso when I'm studying than anything else. I honestly do not understand it. A month ago I had a beautiful 30 year old real estate agent ask me for my number while I was studying for my Chemistry 2 final. Not to mention throughout the semester all the "distracting" girls that would just come in and sit with me for hours. Of course when my guy friends found out they flocked McDonalds like they were giving out free money and I actually had to leave once because so many people were there and being loud. But anyways back to my point, I've met someone new again and she seems really nice. It would be great to find someone to be with that understands my time consuming schedule and be supportive....at least before Med School...
...Anyways....
First day of Organic Chemistry!
Yeah I know it's Friday and no I do not know why today was the first day. I assume it's because of the first summer a.m. term classes. Anyways, today was a little review of the quantum mechanics and geometry of molecules. I guess it would help to elaborate on my schedule. Here it is:
Organic Chemistry I lab: 8-11 MTW
Organic Chemistry I lecture: 11:40-1:20 MTWTF
15 weeks of material compressed into a 4 week period. 4 exams and they are on every friday from now on (thank goodness there was not one today hehe). Well me and Sam are suppose to meet up tomorrow at Starbucks to have a study group. We're very confident that we will pull out with A's. But deep down, I know that this will be the most challenging obstacle in my premed journey. This is my make or break opportunity, my rite of passage.....my moment of truth.
