*Liz gets an (!) after her name because I gasp and hiccup every time I think of her.
Today was my first day of school. I made one new friend whose name I have already forgotten. I also bought a planner with a medical school seal on it. (I also clipped my toe nails, but that's irrelevant to the story.)
Amy: These calendars have the medical school seal.
Moi: Aren't they all the same?
Amy: No, see, they've got the lion.
Moi: But it says 've ri tas' on it. Don't we have the lion?
Amy: I think ours has a cross on it.
Oh. Apparently, the medical school also gets 50 more buildings than we do. All of my classes meet in the same 2 classrooms. And at the bookstore? All the school of public health books fit on one lonely shelf, whereas the other people get fancy sections like "Fiction by Doctors." Good for you, HMS, freakin' good for you. At least my professors have misguided confidence in me. They keep saying things like "when you sit on the board of directors, you will need to know this." "When you become a health minister in your own country." I'll work on those things when I find a sticker to cover up this lion crest?
