@vyanka, He doesn't do coke but he does drink A LOT. He holds his liquor very well and doesn't act the least bit drunk at all but he does drink quite a lot. I bet that's the problem.

how annoying.
why you'd rather drink than have an all night fuck fest with me is beyond me.

Yep people know coke will cause a dude to go limp but I think too much alcohol can cause flaccid penis syndrome/negatively affect their sexual performance too.

Just got my new dress in! Why the hell do I wear XL in Asian sizes? Really though? .....

And omg, omg, omg....i think he asked me out with him one on one....siri what do I do??? I know I said I want some d*ck but now Im scared to get out of my introvert bubble to get it......

I am going to have to email the guy with the panty melting smile who gave me his card.

I think I need to have 3 guys because if I have just one I will feel clingy and thirsty.

Okay I'm stuck!!!! This guy is asking me to hang out but he's like what is your schedule? It's like a fun activity not a romantic type thing. So I'm thinking it's just a friendly meet up but I'm still nervous lol.

do i tell him during the week or weekend cause I thought only boyfriends get Friday and Saturday?

Do I just suggest 2 upcoming days? And let him choose from that?

I'm so confused maybe I'm overthinking but I don't want to give him the impression my calendar is empty and boring (even if it may be at the time). I opened his message 5 hours ago and can't think what's the best was to respond?

Tonight I went out with a Czech guy for the first time, and it was great, but I don't know if I could actually handle dating someone who speaks English as a second language. There is definitely a barrier in communication, even though the guy is quite fluent. I'm starting to have a lot more respect for couples of different backgrounds.

You're probably overthinking it. I'd just give him a couple of days to choose from. As long as you don't let him choose from the entire week, you're not going to come off as having an empty calendar.

I'm unattached with no serious future prospects and I'm mostly okay with it. This weekend I stayed home and I caught up on DVRed shows and decorated the tree. And I'm not as depressed this holiday season. I did notice that my doctor doubled my anti-depressant so maybe that's the reason.

Not feeling well at all... When I feel this way, I prefer isolating myself rather than seeing anyone, but at the same time it's really difficult keeping everything to myself so I'm really glad SW is there.

When it's not going well, I don't really feel like talking to anyone about it, some people seem to be very happy when successful people struggle, haters that's all they're waiting for and when it comes to friends, I already know what they will say, they will say kind words, that everything will be fine, that it will go away, that it's temporary and everything will be okay. But it's not, and there's not much they can do. I know because we all do it, we say it's not that bad but we don't really mean it because there's nothing else we could say. I'm feeling pretty miserable right now.

I'm the same way, when something is really deeply bothering me I usually will keep it completely to myself. I just feel like it's deeply private and not something I really want to discuss with others. I saw someone's instagram post where they were exposing their depression and admonishing other people for pretending that life is perfect on social media, but maybe people don't share their dark sides on social media because they just don't want to get super personal on it, not because they're trying to look perfect to anyone. That's true in my case, my inner struggles aren't anyone's business quite frankly.

Also the older I get I think the more aware I become of just how many people do not think they have their shit together. Everyone has dark moments, everyone has stuff that keeps them up at night, everyone has worries, everyone wonders wtf they are doing, everyone has times where they wish they were dead, everyone hits rock bottom at least a couple times, everyone has some unhealthy coping mechanisms....etc.

Yeah, there's some people who write status on Facebook about how they wanna kill themselves and are so unhappy, but that's not the kind of attention I want.

^I do think it's important to not beat yourself up and not feel like shit going south is some sort of universal punishment for allowing yourself to get 'too happy,' what the reality is IMO is that life is full of ups and downs. I do think that it's in everyone's best interest to try and learn how to have more ups than downs, but even still, no one's life is going to look like this: _____________________________________

Lives look more like this: ←↗ ↓ ↔→ ↑↓ →↗← ↓→ ↑↓ ↖→←↕ ↓→ ↓↗ →←←←↕← ↑↑↖↓↔

So I'm a bitch for saying that, so be it.

My bf finally had to go home to work tonight and study for his last final tomorrow, and I am SO happy to have the house to myself again. Don't get me wrong, I like spending time with him, but I literally went from a week of doing nothing but schoolwork to hanging out with him since right after my last class Monday night. I'm just ready for some total me-time.

I have a huge list of people who I kept telling I would hit up when the semester was over. And I will make time to catch up with them before the spring semester starts, but I am not putting in the effort for anyone else this week. I hate when having a social life starts to feel like a chore. It makes me feel like a bad person to feel like hanging out with my friends isn't "relaxing."

I've already changed my site settings from pink color to mobile mode but it's too late she saw the site name in huge letters already. Smh. I should've had that this way since the beginning.

So now what.

Also she is always using my phone because I have unlimited data and I have so much anxiety because sometimes customers will text my google voice randomly and the messages will pop up. Or emails. I have never had to hide this from someone so close to me before. I dunno what to do. I would be the worst cheater. I gotta change all my settings now -_-

I sort of have a crush on a dude from my class. Last night was our graduation and a group of us went out dancing. I hadn't spent much time with him alone, but he wanted to dance with me and then we left together. Spent about an hour trying to get home because we couldn't figure out how the trams work, lol. But it was fun and we're both staying in Prague. He'd be a perfect friend with benefits.

I get extreme anxiety whenever someone needs to momentarily use my phone - it's like I just know a client is going to text me at that very moment or they'll see something they don't need to.

Someone asked me if I worked for the government once, because I always had my phone face down on the table at dinner lol

I am considering med school and it's a scary thought.

My original major was prenursing but the programs are so impacted here that my shot of getting into a public program is pretty low despite my high GPA. I would have to pony up the money to go to one of the expensive private universities around here.

I am already doing med school prereqs and there's a well respected public university close by with a medical school that I have a great shot of getting into. I dunno my whole life I've heard why being a nurse is a better career than being a doctor. Everyone in my family is in the medical field and none of them chose to do medical school even though they easily could have.

Just a lot to think about

I highly recommend going med school in the carribean islands because it's not very impacted. I think you should do it because you set the curves for complicated math/science tests.

It's still weird to me that nursing is so impacted. I only got in on lottery. I honestly believe med school is far less competitive than nursing. If I were planning to do anything other than aesthetics, I would have just opted for medical school.

I had another Tinder date. This guy's English was great, not too bad of an accent, and he was sooo cute! He's a wealthy nerdy type and he was really sweet. But he was very soft-spoken. I couldn't 100% tell if he was actually enjoying the date, until he offered to drive me home and then said he wanted to see me again. I also had no luck deciphering his political/religious views or what he wants from dating... he was very private about it.

But I seriously got butterflies, he was so adorable. :)

I am always excited about being done with exams but every semester it's the same. After exams are over I rarely feel like celebrating and I am so anxious about the marks I barely relax. It also takes forever to get our marks back, the semester starts on jan 5th and teachers sometimes take an entire month, last year some marks were only up on January 30.

It's tricky because even if you know you did well, it's not about how well you did but how you outperformed your peers so if you get 88% and the average is 86% you get a B due to the curve. The % and letter mark aren't up at the same time either so it's a long wait time ugh.

I am a little more stressed out than usual because I let myself go a little this semester... It's not catastrophic but it won't be A or A+ everything.... I had 2 B's for the mid-terms because the average was so high and I was so disappointed ugh. I also realized I made some mistakes during the finals and in easy exams the small mistakes make a huge difference I'm hoping I maintain my A and A+ for the 3 other classes and at worse 2 B's (but not lower please!!!) so my GPA remains pretty much the same...

This winter it's applications and interviews for internships and marks are super important, some people have been studying all day and night this semester but since I did so well the first year I let myself go a little.... But at the same time I tried doing other stuff besides studying and got involved in extracurriculars because it's also extremely important so it's not like I spent my time partying, but I am still worried, perhaps I should have studied more... and they only look at the 3 first semesters so it's not like I could catch up this winter. I will probably still be on the dean's list but some internships are so competitive, being in the top 10% on the dean's list is not enough, gotta outperform other dean's listers.

Two dates and no kiss. Really? I mean, maybe saying goodbye in the metro isn't the best place for a first kiss, but hey...

So I've been on dates with two different Czech guys... one is very chatty and fun, and the other is hot but quiet. I think the second one is just worried about his English. The first guy is more my type. His accent is pretty strong, but we have a lot in common and I could actually see myself with him.

That's a very expensive option, you will basically be in a third world country, and there's a few states that aren't keen on licensing you... Barbie, if you think about that route, make sure it's one of the "Big 4" including Ross in Dominica and AUC in Saint Maarten.
The other option too is D.O. They have lower GPA and MCAT requirements.

The thing that's competitive besides the grades is showing you WANT it and know what it entails though. You'd need to shadow a doctor, do clinical volunteering, etc. If you try to pack all of that in in 6 months, they won't buy it.

That's where med school is more competitive than nursing, here you just get As in 6 easy pre-reqs and wait list... Medical requires the GPA of 4 years including nasty hard sciences, a 7.5 hour test that takes 3 months to study for, the volunteering, the letters of rec, writing persuasive essays to admissions, and a lot of money in app fees and flying to interviews.

I wouldn't recommend med school Caribbean to anyone except as a backup. It is ok to do but will give you limited options for residency. In fact I know someone who got rejected by 18+ schools who was going to do it when she heard she got accepted to an ivy league medical school. Go figure.

I do agree with Selina, you need to shadow doctors, do research and volunteer to be competing for medical school but BarbieNYC is still doing science gen eds so she has plenty of time to build her resume.

Logically I know that I don't want another baby, but lately I really want another baby. I have dreams about the baby, what he/she would look like, what I would name the baby, the clothes I would buy for him/her. At the same time, I hate being pregnant, I don't want the added expense and I don't want be up breastfeeding all night again. I both really want, and really don't want another baby. I hate this feeling. I hope it's just hormones.

Thanks for the advice Lynn and Selina! I've got plenty of time to figure it out. I'm only considering the med school in my area because while they are a well respected public university, they have a hard time getting applicants because no one wants to live and practice in this part of Cali. There is a shortage of doctors in the area and they are even offering to pay for some of your education if you commit to practicing for five years in the area. They also give priority to students from this area who attend that university for undergrad. I'll be done with nursing prereqs soon and I'm a little sad because I really wanted to keep going into the math and sciences. Then I realized all those classes I wanted to take are all med school prereqs lol.

There are only two public nursing programs in my area, the rest are private so you can imagine how impacted the public nursing programs are. Yikes. It's crazy how the public med school route will be cheaper than the private nursing school route. And my gpa is thankfully off to a great start. If I keep it like this I won't have to worry about med school in the Caribbean. And I'll definitely try to start building up my resume. You can never start too early.

I'm still early on in my education so I can play around with options. I am so grateful for the advice given on this. I hope this helps out other girls in the future.

I am considering med school and it's a scary thought.

My original major was prenursing but the programs are so impacted here that my shot of getting into a public program is pretty low despite my high GPA. I would have to pony up the money to go to one of the expensive private universities around here.

I am already doing med school prereqs and there's a well respected public university close by with a medical school that I have a great shot of getting into. I dunno my whole life I've heard why being a nurse is a better career than being a doctor. Everyone in my family is in the medical field and none of them chose to do medical school even though they easily could have.

Just a lot to think about

Oh my God, do it!!! I slightly regret not trying to go to med school (as a kid I loved learning about anatomy, etc.) It just wasn't in the cards. One of my cousins is a doctor now (her parents could afford to help her) & I'm so proud. Americans are grossly underserved by the medical industry & we lack enough doctors anyhow.

Please please do it. I believe in you.

I have so many shirts in my closet that I won't give up just for sentimental reasons. Like my "Goonies Never Say Die" shirt. I'm never gonna really wear that again... It's a high-school Hot Topic shirt and makes me look like a child when I wear it. But I loved it so much back in the day, I can't get rid of it. I have a few like that.

I also still have the t-shirt that was the "uniform" for my ex-boyfriend's company softball team with his number on it. I will never ever have reason to wear it again, and it makes no sense to even keep it, but I loved that shirt so much. It has such a cool design and I always loved that it was my favorite number. I've never really done sports so it was always so much fun for me to wear the "uniform" to games and feel like part of a group. It's not like I miss the ex, or will ever go see a game now that we're not together, but that shirt reminds me of a really happy aspect of that relationship and I don't want to throw it out.
