Haha at least you would satisfy your craving and not want anything sweet for a while. Good investment I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cleanup Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 I haven't had a Krispy Kreme doughnut since I lived in Ottawa, so almost seven years ago. Damn could I go for one now, hah. There's one right by Mount Sinai, Sick Kids, etc. on McCaul street. Whenever they have that crazy deal where you buy a few coffees and get a free box of 12 donuts my classmates and I capitalize on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xkittens Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Very fun and light hearted NSERC interview... until the prof made a funny and I burst out laughing and a giant droplet of spit flies gracefully out of my mouth and makes a flawless landing that an olympic gymnast would be jealous of snugly between the thighs of the prof. It was all slow motion and I swear I heard opera playing in the background. Pardon me while I bury my head in sand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falling Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Someone please convince me not to buy one of those 700 dollar parkas that everyone is wearing. I get very cold in the winters, and I can no longer layer my old jackets because I put on some weight (on purpose). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The down fill is a bit thinner than the goose ones but I wasn't a bit cold the week it was - 42 here. And I'm from Victoria. Especially if you get one during their many sales.

Falling Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 I ended up buying a patagonia parka for about 350 (lol). I went to Eddie Bauer, but they didn't have my size, and I was not going to drive to another store. The parka is nice, I think the main thing I needed was something that could deal with the wind, and this coat does that. I tried on a canada goose something, but those things felt very bulky. Mostly everyone in the store was purchasing a Canada Goose product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MathToMed Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Got a rejection pre-interview from Mac again. While I'd already assumed that I would be based on my stats, it's still making me anxious as this is exactly what happened last year...I'm hoping I've bettered myself enough to land an interview at one of the other 2... It'd be nice to finally have some confirmation that the painful journey has been worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savac Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 I knew there was no way Mac would wait until February. My underground sources told me so. And by underground sources I mean my gut/intuition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And by underground sources I mean my gut/intuition. I didn't figure they would either. Last year it was Jan 24. I actually screamed when I got my invite. Freaked my husband out.

Hopefullll Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 I feel crushed and optimistic all at the same time. It's an odd feeling really.Learning how to handle disappointment is one of those things we will all have to deal with as future physicians, hopefully I can pull some lessons out of this experience and apply it to my future applications.
