ode to medical school

I have been avoiding this topic, if you had noticed.  My mcat scores are not what I wanted.  There I said it.  I will still apply, I HAVE to apply.  All the work is done, letters acquired, essay painstakingly written and rewritten again and again and again and again.  You know that feeling that if you quit now you will lose your nerve?  That’s how I feel.  I must apply, if only to prove to myself that I CAN and WILL become a doctor.  I have never felt more sure of something in my whole life.

I am sorry I haven’t been writing, there is so much going on in my life, both mundane and painful.  The latter of which I cannot write about, but just to say, “life can be the shit sometimes.” I know, it is so annoying when people do that, say there is bad news but won’t say the bad news.  Well, it’s not my news to tell.  So suck it.  BUT, on a positive note, I did purchase two pairs of Forever 21 skinny jeans for $12.50 each.  AND I have acquired dentists and doctors galore in the good ole’ Spokane.  Now that I have health/vision/dental insurance I can go out and break a lot of bones and I won’t have to pay for it.  Well at least not for 80% of the damage.  That’s so comforting.

Upon showing Andy my new skinny jeans he says, “Wow hon, even though this is the fattest you’ve ever been, you look great.”  Is that a compliment?  Can you compliment someone and include the word fat in the same sentence?  It’s a good thing I have a sense of humor.

OR ELSE.
