Yeah, I think my theory might be right - faster stuff just started trickling in, and they never changed the road rules - they just manage the way they always did before, when it wasn't dangerous to bump into others.

Knowing you have to produce a number of good applications for internships at various hospitals, is stressful! Especially when the deadlines are approaching rapidly.
Even more stressful is the fact that I don't know where I'll be 6 months from now. I could still be in Stockholm or I could wind up in some distant small town for the next two years. Ah, uncertainty, anxiety and I will see much of one another for the foreseeable future

Hang in there, Jonathan! If there's anything I've learned from watching sitcoms and hospital dramas over the years, it's that the good-looking people rarely get killed off. Or if they do it's just so they can have their own spinoff show. SO I wouldn't worry about it if I were you.

Well, if by the above you mean I've got the looks on my side, I can just bow humbly and say "aw, thank you ". Nice knowing someone believes you won't be killed off anytime soon Gwai, I didn't know Cleveland had his own spinoff until now (I suppose you're referring to the Family Guy character).

That would go awesome on an application:
"I see you have listed here that you are an attractive main character. What sort of experience do you have to backup this claim?" "Well, I'm pretty hot, and I do find that a lot of important, plot building things seem to happen in my day-to-day life." "Hmm... fair enough. When can you start?" See? AWESOME. |

So, it turns out food is sort of a pre-requisite for working out. I'm currently between meal plans at my residence, so I haven't been eating so much as snacking, and then trying to work out killed me. Whodathunk?

Oh man, so true. One time I didn't eat much for breakfast, then I worked out and about 30 min after I finished working out I started shaking and getting light-headed... eating fixed it. But seriously, don't exercise if you can't eat. O_o Bad idea. |

GAH! People can be so ridiculous! I tried to tell my brother a funny story, and the punk was so busy getting side-tracked by an insignificant detail and delivering a rant I'd already heard a dozen times from him that he completely missed teh funniez.

Someone rear-ended me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >.< AAAAAAARGH!!!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE?!!?
Once again... I was stopped dead, and this time couldn't have moved (even though I saw it coming this time) because I had cars ahead of me and beside me. At the stop light, the guy coming up behind me (I was already stopped) just... you know.... didn't hit his breaks. But don't worry. I made sure to stop him. Thank God it was in a rental car and not mine. |

Sorry to hear it Tess. That's one experience you could have been without.
