Hey, thanks for that. Still have lots to improve but it’s nice to hear these sorts of compliments. I used to have one, it’s a music blog but I haven’t updated it for quite a long time now. Here it is: Thieves By Tuesday*
Please recommend movies you think are great to watch (preferably your top 10 movies). I like film noir, Oscar lists, IMDb top picks, indie flicks, blockbusters but with a great storyline and acting.
THANK YOU! Drop your messages here or after this question mark?
Hi Usne.
The only advice I can give when it comes majors has always been to do what you love. To prove a point, on my interview, my grades were of critical point. The doctor who interviewed me was a pathologist and, if my Microbiology and Parasitology grades were less than perfect, I doubt if he would’ve given me a thumbs up. It wasn’t my favorite subject and thank God I fared well, or things would’ve blown apart. Yes, schools look for diversity, but if you do love physics, then go right ahead. And remember, diversity doesn’t have to come from odd majors.
Here in the Philippines, the med schools require a certain amount of units in Physics and Math (and so on) so you should probably look into the requirements of the prospective med school you plan to apply to in the future, just so you know you’re not missing any subjects. As early as now, you should make a list of the schools you plan to go. Sometimes some med schools have different affinities for subjects, so make sure you’re aware of what they want.
I’ve read a few med student blogs here in tumblr to know enough that “med schools don’t really care what you major in”. They take both traditional minded folks and students with diversified majors equally. And if you think you need to balance your subjects out, grab some minors in non-science subjects or participate in some extracurriculars that are non-science related. I did debate and some English classes and it can help distinguish you from other applicants. Not that the ability to write poetry ups your chances, but it will make you easier to remember.
Science majors will burn you out faster, but when you get to med school, it will help things go a little smoother for you on your first year. There’s the trade off.
To sum it all up, major in whatever you wanna major in, finish those pre-med pre-reqs, and enjoy the rest of your undergrad years!
Got it at Lazada, free shipping, less Php 2,000+ (Christmas sale) with a free Php 200 off voucher. I paid Php 3,490. The site also has tons of good deals right now. You might want to drop by!
Sure thing. Please don’t be shy to ask me questions! Do ask without resorting to anon, (I’d like to know who ACTUALLY follows my blog hehe).
Hi. I can’t post because it’s still charging. I can tell you one thing though, the resolution really sucks. There’s zoom in and zoom out, there’s adjustments for white balance (like auto, incandescent, flourescent, daylight and etc, but absolutely no use since the camera quality is just BAD), there’s exposure setting but again—no use. The cam and it’s poor battery life (4-5 hrs for web surfing, ebook reading, movie watching, 12 hrs stand by) is probably one of this tablet’s disadvantages. You can’t shoot at dim areas, and even here at the house where we have decent lighting, it still sucks. I don’t need a decent cam, since I have a digital camera of my own and I can take the hassle of transferring the files and uploading them but if you like things instant, it’ll be a bit difficult for you. But man, the expandable memory (up to 32 gb), the fast response, the many apps, it’s handyness (very light in the hands), decent audio, easy to use tools—for me this tab is ACE. For the price I paid (3,200 Php and free shipping/ $ 64.00), I can’t ask for anything more. I don’t know how to compare the resolution (since I’m no techie gal), but I can say for sure, it’s VGA camera level. Hope that helps!
Nope it’s pretty bad. The cam is near the screen though so it’s good for those Skype sessions. If you want to get a tablet for it’s camera, I suggest you buy the expensive ones (iPad, Samsung Note/Galaxy tab series/Nexus).
Haha, Ms. Philippines my butt. My vital statistics is like that of Olive Oyl’s, except mine’s 30-30-30 (now that holidays is almost over).
Now for your question…. Well that’s a tough one! Here are my 5 films (I’m feeling like watching these all over again).
Sure, I’ll probably do one mid January 2013. I still have tons of exams to study for, so keep on dropping by the blog to know if I’ve posted it. :)
Yeah, something. It’s sad when your being honest can push people away, even when your doing it for their own good. There’s no getting around the truth without hurting people. I knew I had to get over the bad part eventually, but not this soon. I hope all’s well that ends well.
Thanks! I always think of good music looking like this.
This was me before your message:
This is me now:
The key word is “seem.” Thanks :)
This is the most amazing thing that’s happened to me in days. Unka Glen following me here on Tumblr! Wow. I feel all sorts of amazing.
Hahaha, I love the way you think! I’ve never done something like that but maybe you want to do it the right way by first asking the librarian if supposedly “you borrowed a book that you loved so much that you want to buy it from the library (say it’s a rare find).” You may want to leave out the part that it’s a signed copy, since if they do allow you to buy the book, they might raise it to a few more bucks. If they won’t allow you to buy it, you could intentionally “fake-lose” it. Then pay them more than the usual price in gratitude of their understanding of your “recklessness and losing the book.” Oh my I’m such a bad influence. Okay I take it back! maybe you should just look for John Green’s address and send it over, asking him to sign it. It’s so old school, but it’s the right way to do. At the very least, your conscience is clear! :)
I know… I’m having a bad case of Pinterest-itis. It’s something that I’m trying to unlearn. Don’t you think it’s good that although I may want so many things, I never get the urge to actually get them? Do you see it? It’s a pretty awesome trait called restraint and tightwad-ness that I’ve inherited from my parents.
