Perspective

I have a final in Food and Drug Law today. Aside from knowing the laws surrounding the FDA, administrative laws, cases, drug approval process, etc., our professor indicated that we need to know 100 medical terms (he provided the list).

Whle trying to memorize these terms, I sent an email to my guy friend who is a second year med student yesterday telling him that I had a small taste of what he went through his first month of med school.

His response made me laugh:

Mills,

Until you've taken a swan dive into an eighty-six year old vagina, you'll
have no idea.

Now that's some perspective.

You Said

Wow. While reading that post I definitely didn't see that turn coming. Makes me happy I didn't like science in high school.

Thank you---now I never want to read another web page ever in my life.

Can't wait to find out what type of googles you'll get for that!

Reading that makes me glad the med school admissions a-holes rejected me. Our inspections only involve documents. :)

Good luck, Lawren. Would love to hear more about it - I used to work in drug development/contract research for the FDA. And if you need any help or background, or hell, just fluff to make it more interesting, lemme know!

:o)
