physicianso i finally submitted my primary application for medical school. on what i'm pretty sure is the last possible day to get it processed in time for my committee letter to be written. whew!
originally, i was going to apply to 10, maybe 15 schools. much less than the average (which i think is around 20). i ended up applying to 20. $730!! ah well, such is the sacrifice we make for our dreams, eh? actually my dad ended up paying for most of it. he does have a lot more money than i do...
at some point i'll find out which schools liked my primary application enough to send me a secondary application. hopefully that will be soon. first, the application service has to verify all my information, grades, test scores, etc. then i get to request my committee letter/recommendation letters. those get sent to the application service and then the entire application is sent to my schools. who send me another application. fingers crossed.
i don't know if that process made sense the way i said it.
anyways, to celebrate, i'm going spend money at the apple store (.com). my dad gave me a $500 apple gift card (yeeha!) for my birthday. it's from grant money, so it's less of a deal than it he'd paid for it out of pocket. i went to the apple store, but there wasn't anything these that i needed or wanted. i thought about getting an iphone, but i'm sure those will get even cheaper in the future and i already have a cell phone. on verizon ;) i was also thinking about a camera, but i have one of those also. not as good as some in the store, but i'm not much of a photographer, so it's not a big deal. i wanted speakers, but the ones in the store were ugly. or for ipods. which i don't have. so to the online store i went. here's what i've found so far:
coolio messenger bag/backpack hybrid that's supposed to be pretty comfortable
pretty speakers, small but works well for its size (i don't need huge ones anyway)
microphone, because the one in my macbook stinks and this one's pretty :)
i haven't made these my final purchases yet, i'll look around for a bit longer.
