So about that get together...?

[Guest loud noises]

Hey guys,

 

So only three more weeks left? I'm getting more & more excited!

 

We said we would plan a get together right before school started & I wanted to know whether we're still on for that!

 

It would be awesome if a whole bunch of us could come!

[Guest razanoor]

when are we planning to do it...and where. Lets get confirmations first on how many want to attend and then we can plan something concrete

[Guest dc1414]

I should be free for this as I'm doing nothing this summer.

[Guest gloria]

Count me in! What about Sunday night at Earl's? That way everyone should be moved in etc. ready for the first day of classes.

[Guest loud noises]

Earls sounds good...but how about Saturday night? Just so we can be well rested for the first day! (Some of us need a good 10 hours sleep.....like me:o )

[Guest ComplacentTragedy]

I would prefer Sunday night, just cause my rez doesn't even open until the twenty freakin eighth.

 

It'll only be a meet up anyway, not so much a late night thing.. so I'm sure we can get our 'ten' hours of sleep... lucky.

 

So all we need is some Edmonton guy to set up a reservation for perhaps 10 at Earls that night at 6.

[Guest loud noises]

I'm on top of the reservation...I'll be by Earls today.

 

How does everyone feel about inviting people that will be in our class, but are not part of this forum? I think we can do a bigger meet & greet this way...but yeah.

 

PS. What's with the all of a sudden ad insertion on this forum? :rolleyes

 

PPS. Please don't make fun of my needing 10 hours sleep...I know, it makes me feel like I'm 10 again:rollin

[Guest razanoor]

I take it that we are talking about Sunday, August 27, 2006 at 6PM at Earls. Let's tally up how many people we have so far so 'loud noises' will have an easier time making a reservation. Including me, thats 5 now. Whoever adds their name to this, please update the tally in your message.

[Guest konverse]

hey peeps

so the meetup sounds good

but yanno, i'm with loud noises on this one... perhaps we can have it for saturday evening at 6pm. it's not that if we had it on sunday it would be a late nite or anything, but it could be more relaxed this way on saturday with no time pressures, people looking at watches etc etc. plus if people fancy going elsewhere after, in this way the option is open...

personally sunday (esp in the evening/nite) i'd like to be doing my own thing, laying low, getting things together etc..

but group consensus is tha rule!

i'm in either way -- that makes it 6!

[Guest loud noises]

Alright, so I just walked past Earls & asked to make a reservation, and apparently b/c it's a small restaurant they don't take reso's. But, I was told that we wouldn't have a problem accomodating a group of 10-15...we might not all get to sit at the same table, but 2 tables right next to one another isn't a big deal.

 

So I guess now it's just a matter of figuring out when & what time exactly, but hey, we still have 3 weeks for that!

[jerry]

sooo... sat or sunday?

[smokeydx]

Hi, jus got back from Vacation. Count me in >.<

[Complacent Tragedy]

I'll only be able to make it Sunday - but it's not too much of a big deal, you guys can recognize me at orientation cause I'm the fattest one.

[slypimpdip]

lol Complacent,

 

well that sounded a little harsh now, didn't it.

Obesity is an epidemic - like polio.

lol and like the bubonic plague..................

anyway.

whazzup peeps?

fancy little msg board we have here huh

so this whole thing we call "med school" is starting soon, and we were talking about the Earls Meetup. what has been decided? i know it was between either saturday or sunday eve... i'm putting my vote in for sat. it's more of a personal preference really, i'd feel more relaxed and better able to engage in leisurely banter...

let's hear it!

[smokeydx]

Hello,

 

I will put my vote in for Saturday. It leaves a day of rest before Orientation.

Beer =p~~~~~

 

Cheers,

[slypimpdip]

Im down for Saturday too. That way, if we decide to get a little wild and show our true med student side, we will have a day to recover... and rehydrate.

[Gloria]

I'm good either way.

[Scholastica]

Where is Earls? I'm sorry. I'm new to Edmonton and still learning my ways around the city.

 

What day are we meeting, Saturday? Sunday? I prefer Saturday b/c I like to sleep in early on Sundays. In fact, I love sleeping...

[jerry]

... how will we know who's who? haha... there should be a sign that says PREMED FORUM

who wants to make one

[slypimpdip]

I'm thinking most people are saying Saturday, but I'm not too sure.

Earls is right on the U of A campus, east of the hospital. It's on the corner of 86th ave and 112th St.

[loud noises]

So, let's say Saturday at 5:30'ish???

[smokeydx]

I'm down wit that... G.

[Gloria]

That sounds good to me!

 

Ok, so I'm kind of laughing at all of us sleepy people. You know, we are all worried about getting enough sleep for the first day of class...but then what kind of profession are we joining anyway! Once we get into the hospital we are never going to sleep again! I've alreayd decided to cut down from 10 to 8 hours, I figure I can shave off the last 7.5 over the next 4 years.
