Vacations time…

( General and Medicine and My Life )

That’s it, we’re done with the final exam… Results in july…
I kind of mess’d up so I’ll probably have to re-do it all next year, but since it’s a competition, I can still hope that everyone else mess’d up as much as I did…
Today is my first day of vacations but it doesn’t make it […]

First Semester Results

( General and Medicine and My Life )

So far so good…
I finally got the temporary results from the first semester of Med’ school (temporary because it’s only 40% of the total, we still have the second part in May): Among roughly 2300 people I’m ranked 252 with only 377 places to fill. Which means I need to maintain (or improve […]

The Numerus Clausus decreased this year…

( Medicine and My Life )

Overall, this year they increased the Numerus Clausus (the number of students admitted in the 2nd year of med’ schools) from 7100 to 7300.
So far so good (well, IMO, it’s not enough), but… they decreased the number in my university!! From 383 places last year to 377 this year, with roughly 2400 students […]

Les concours blancs de Chimie c’est fun…

( General and French and Français and My Life )

Non vraiment, y’en a qui sont inspirés quand ils redigent les sujets:
Ex 2, VII question 3:

Distrait par l’épisode 11824 des “Feux de l’Amour” dans lequel Cindy révèle son amour pour Brandon, alors même que ce derner couche avec la mère de Stacy, le manipulateur verse trop de soude et le pH monte a 8,1.
Combien de […]

One of those days…

( General and My Life )

There are days when you know you should work but you feel like sh*t
There are days when you just stare at the wall wondering what you’re (not) doing
There are days when you know what you gave up but it doesn’t seem enough
There are days when the fantasy of success doesn’t make you smile anymore
There are […]

Miss I.

( General and Medicine and My Life )

I told one girl from my class the other day about “my odd past”.
I’m not sure why yet. I was at a point where I had to either lie or tell the truth, and she didn’t deserve a lie. But at the same time I could have easily avoided the situation by being less open […]

That’s it: Launch Day

( General and Medicine and My Life )

That’s it, Monday was the day: first day and first week in Med’ school.
The first day was quite… interesting. Check this video out, singing (at some point the teacher even joins in), sex demonstrations and even… nudity :p

Otherwise a couple of stats, observations and comments:

Old Poems

( General and French and Français and My Life )

While sorting/cleaning my things I stumbled upon some old poems I wrote while in middle school and high school. Time goes by, and the feeling remains…

C’est un vent glacial qui amplit toute mon âme
Telle une sorcière noire venue me posséder
Et détruire mon moi pour mieux m’assassiner
Ô cruel désespoir vient souffler ma flamme
– Sometime during middle […]

Anti-Spam goes wrong

So, “recently” my ISP started to block outgoing connection to port 25 and force SMTP auth in an attempt to reduce spam. So far so good, but I just realized that they embed the real login in the header:

X-ME-User-Auth: my-real-login

So much for my privacy and anonymity…
Note for the spam bots: just google “X-ME-User-Auth” to get […]

Paris V Descartes it is…

( General and Medicine and My Life )

Apparently my med’ school is going to be at Paris V Descartes.
I would have preferred Paris XII for various reasons (more medical and smaller classes for instance) but O well… That’d do it too.
On the up sides the location is gorgeous and the hospitals associated with it for the internships are really great too. But […]
