i hope some of you had a nice relaxing weekend, because my two days of freedom got kneed in the groin by school.

this weekend, our campus was hosting the alumni convention and this is basically a chance for all the old docs to come back to school for a weekend and relive the good ol’ days of med school.

today’s festivities included an alumni-hosted scientific session, which is a chance for all us punk-ass kids to show off our research and prove once and for all that we do indeed know it all. this is of course do to the fact that we have it so much better than the docs who had to walk nine miles to school…barefoot…in the snow.

so even though i missed out on some beautiful seventy-degree days, i did get to hang out in the gymnasium and talk about how we are all kicking cancer’s ass and this made it well worth my time. well…that and all the free med schwag that the exhibitors are giving away.

horray for drug-name-branded pens and frisbees!

so if the closing awards reception goes quickly, i may still make it home for the oscars because that is the shit that really matters.

update: okay so it turns out that my presentation won first place and like i said those old docs really know what they’re talking about
