    Too bad I'm nowhere near being Catholic. :( I'll work on it, though. Haha.

    I was never made aware of the IPods. They could have AT LEAST told me that...they'd been sending me letters since I was in the 5th grade!

    Where did you get your undergrad?

    Emory... in math/comp sci with a premed focus.

    Don't ever go there. It sucks.

    Depends on...

    Your height

    Your weight

    Your metabolism

    How much food/water you had in your system before drinking

    How much you drank

    What you drank

    How quickly you drank whatever it is you drank

    If you ate food/drank water in between

    etc... etc... etc..

    I have a keychain BAC thingamaboober... not 100% accurate, but gives me a relative.

    Well, okay, I'll take your word for it. XD
    Math is not my strongpoint. I make good grades, but I can't retain anything for crap. I did work at the hospital on base when I lived in Korea; I made IVs and filled prescriptions... however, US hospitals don't seem to be so kind. Oh well, I got my anti-terrorism training out of it. Is there a specific area in medicine you want to do?

    So.. you were in korea... intemaresting...

    Orthopaedic surgery.

    Yeah, I lived there for 4 years. At first I didn't like it because it was such a culture shock for a Southern girl, but about 1.5 years in, I realized I was in love. I want to go back to visit someday. I love traveling.

    Kudos to you for pursuing that. Not many people want to put in the time. I'll stick to Psychology, thank you. :)
  • Jul 26, 2009, 11:52 PM

    Interesting. I lived there for 6 years.

    ... too bad I don't remember much... :(
  • Jul 27, 2009, 12:00 AM
    Torrid13

    Really? That is too bad! :( Hopefully you'll get to go back someday.

    Well, I'm going to go to sleep... my poor bruised body is yelling at me to! XD

    It was nice meeting you, Sneezy! If I don't get to chat with you any time soon, I wish you the best of luck in Grenada, and success on your medical journey! :)

    Guten Nacht!

    Night torrie.

    Yeah, I was born in Korea... moved around quite a bit until our family settled here in the atl.

    I think I may go back for a visit in a few years... maybe 4... or so...

    :( :(

    Vaughn has Swine Flu!!

    :( :(

    Oh joy, guess what I am going to catch in a few days :rolleyes:
  • Jul 27, 2009, 07:57 AM
    ISneezeFunny

    Oh boy, so sorry to hear that shazzie.

    So that you don't catch it as well, try to keep a distance from him... no touching... wash your hands quite frequently, and also, try to make him (or yourself) wear a mask around the house. Is it possible for him to sleep in a different room while he's recovering?

    Hey Stringer, Sneezy, Shazzy!

    I'm just looking what's up in here for a moment.

    Aww... get some tamiflu for Vaughn Shazzy, and don't you catch it! :eek:

    Hi Torri! I think we are not yet properly acquainted... I'll be here more often as from Wednesday evening in Mauritius. I'm caught in a MUN conference and there's lots of work... right now, I'm very busy... See you then! :)
  • Jul 27, 2009, 08:23 AM
    shazamataz

    Thanks Sneezy.
    I told him to wear his mask but his reply was "I'm not wearing that thing in my own house" :rolleyes:

    Thinking about sleeping on the couch tonight, Don't like the bed in the spare room haha

    Nope no Tamiflu Unky, the doctor just said take panadol and rest.
    Don't do anything strenuous until your symptoms have gone.

    So much for quarantine! :eek:

    Oh and she advised that if either of us started coughing up green liquid to go to emergency!!
  • Jul 27, 2009, 08:30 AM
    ISneezeFunny

    Shaz, see if you can get tamiflu for yourself... it's a decent prevention method. Also, stay away from him! You can't take care of him if you're sick as well.

    Wash your hands, drink plenty of fluids, and try not to touch him... I know how difficult it is to keep your hands to yourself.

    Do the kids coming on here for homework help, realise that if it's a math problem, if they type it in Google, they get the answer...
    Lol. But don't tell them that!
  • Jul 27, 2009, 08:42 AM

    Depends how dificult the problem is jennie :)

    Plus they might not want the answer, they might want to know how to get the answer :)

    Thanks heaps Sneezy :)

    We have bottles of hand sanitiser each that we use often.

    I would go get Tamiflu but I can't afford a doctors appointment at the moment.
    Coyuldn't really afford the one today for vaughn but he had to go, even though she just told him to rest :rolleyes:

    Got to love doctors. My mom once got sick. Doc looked at her throat and charged us 250 for a diagnosis that was "oh..she's very sick."

    shazamataz

    Hope you aren't going to be like that Sneezy :p

    I just retrieved my pillow from "Swine Flu Central" aka - our bedroom.

    Completely covered it in disinfectant spray and will now be sleeping on the couch :D

    You kidding? I'm only doing this for three things:

    Money, power, and chicks.

    Shazzy, OMG! Stay safe girl, take care of yourself, listen to Sneezy, he may not be a doctor yet but he knows his stuff.

    Sneezy, you know you're not only doing this for money, power and chicks, you're also doing it because you like the lab coat, it's a good look on you. ;)

    Don't worrie too much hon, my aunt is a nurse (granted, she is a cardiology surgery intensive care nurse) but she says that the swine flu is like a bad case of the flu. She told me that it got a lot of bad publicity simply because it killed a great number of people in mexico, however, as terrible as it sounds, mexico is not the cleanest place to be, and to have the flu and live the way they do, its no wonder many of them died. Its sad :( my husband has family in mexico and we may never know if they were among the dead.

    jenniepepsi's right... the swine flu received a "national pandemic" status is because people were sick, and didn't receive proper care. Same thing with the regular flu... if it gets bad enough, and you don't go to the hospital, you may die.

    The H1N1 virus has killed 816 people worldwide... while the regular flu kills 20,000 a year.

    Aren't you a smarty pants? ;)

    I'm sure Vaughn will be fine Shazzy, just stay safe yourself, why go through it if you can avoid it? ;)

    Yeah we had swine flu here in Arizona and my grandma got it. She had to be in the hospital, but not because of the SFlu its self, but because she is 72 and has MS and is in a wheelchair all the time. It was simply easier and much more comfratable (as amazing as it sounds) for her to have a fecal catheder (not sure what they are REALLY called, sorry) and IV fluids.

    Thanks for the stats, Doc.

    Shazzy, PLEASE be extra careful!

    Hey y'all... Only checking in for a bit... My neck and shoulders are sore from both putting my boy on his slide and being hunched over my puter all weekend studying. :(

    Doc... do you have a remedy for that? :rolleyes:

    Okay, as fun as talking about the flu is, I'm going to change the topic. ;)

    My neighbor asked me if I wanted another bunny. Apparently the people that gave us Oreo (because they couldn't handle her) bought another bunny and can't handle her either.

    Some people never learn. :(

    I can't take in another one, my husband would kill me.

    Do you think he'd notice if I put the new bunny in the same cage with one of the others?

    Hmmm... interesting thought.

    I'll get back to you guys on this one. ;)
