It's been over a month since my last post. Life has been busy busy. Busy busier than normal, in fact. In addition to normal school work, I've been getting my research manuscript ready for submission to journals, and I'm also kinda-sorta-reluctantly starting to study for Step 1 boards (which happen in January). Basically, what I'm trying to say is this: don't expect much from me for the next couple of months, socially, mentally, psychologically, blog-ally, or otherwise. I will be preoccupied attempting to just keep swimming. Ellen Degeneres said that that one time when she was a fish. Wise words.
Anyways, in case you were wondering, here are 6 reasons a Mormon should go to UVASOM.
1. Your classmate friends love you so much they drag you to beer festivals even though you don't drink. Plus, they allow you the privilege of being their #1 DD.
2. The curriculum is fun (because you get to read good quotes and take your own ECG), but challenging. Sometimes so challenging, in fact, that only 19% of the class gets a multiple choice question correct, which is roughly 6% lower than random guessing. Who wouldn't want to be challenged like that?
3. The BYU football team comes to Charlottesville and plays their season openers half a mile away from the med school. And you get to hang out with the star running back the night before the game.
4. You get to do summer research in exotic locations and present your research at big, fancy convention centers. Sometimes you even get to wear bow ties and pose seductively with your poster tube.
5. Many of your classmates are local people, so you get to hang out at their Virginia lake houses if you are nice to them.
6. You live two hours from Washington, DC, so you get to see lots of your favorite people when the pass through. If the lighting and weather are perfect and you have your DSLR handy, you can even take model shots in front of all of the memorials.
And that, boys and girls, is why Mormons should come to UVA Med. The End.
