Hey Everyone,
The MIDTERMS have FINALLY ended!!!! And the first thing I did
was pass out...and when I woke up, I felt like my brain resembled
more of the puddies from Power Rangers than the thing we dissected
in Trimester 2 neuroanatomy. (Yeah, I just put a Power Ranger
analogy in a med school blog, you're welcome. :) Eventually
reality came back and this post was finished.
Me in the cab going to St. Patty's in Wrigleyville.
A question came via email last weekend and I'd like to help you
(what else am I supposed to do?). Since most of the time more than
just the person who emailed me needs the answer, I open it up to a
little blog action.
Q: "I'm entering NUHS in August and I don't have a place
to stay or a roommate and I don't know anyone there! What would
recommend?"
A: Classic Question! Have No Worries. Unless you plan on living
under a rock and sitting in the corner of class with a scowl on
your face (no offense if that's your style;) you will meet plenty
of friends at National. However, if you are looking for a roommate
before you start, you either have to start creepin' on Facebook
(Twitter, if you're into that kind of thing) or email Pam in
Housing. I'd recommend the later. Pam Thomas has been fantastic in
sorting out housing arrangements and getting you set up on campus.
If you have your heart set for off-campus living, there are A LOT
of apartments within 1 mile of campus. Google and your telephone
will help narrow your list.
Tri Games
On a side note, Tri Games is this Friday and dodge ball is the
game of choice! Search my old posts for an explanation of past Tri
Games. I've been practicing dodging wrenches all week at Average
Joe's Gym. Ya, I'm ready.
Talk to y'all next week,
