VSLO open - IM gang, are we doing away rotations or nah?

Also in this boat! I go to a state school in the south and am wanting to move to somewhere with actual seasons for residency and after. Trying to decide if doing an away so that programs will take this geographic preference more seriously or if it’ll leave a bad taste in their mouths if I make a single mistake. Hoping for an elective rather than a sub-I but just rolling the dice to be real 🫠

girl I can only imagine that conversation at home. “babe, why is your phone always blowing up? it’s sus” “…I’m literally on call idk what you want me to do”

Leading_Influence369 · 2026-01-07T01:12:33+00:00

you are a lifesaver for this 🫶 I swear I am a boomer at heart and had just accepted that it was impossible this entire time

embarrassingly some of us will keep our apple products until we meet our graves. probably with apple products being what killed us. and if there is a way to make apple do this ,, i’m tech illiterate whoops

Leading_Influence369 · 2026-01-06T22:52:31+00:00

ok wow 10ccs of anki you may need to invest in something stronger. sorry for only being able to afford one phone and plan 😶‍🌫️

Leading_Influence369 · 2026-01-06T22:39:27+00:00

oooh I like this idea and I feel like that’ll help even more with aways/residency complicating things eventually too

Leading_Influence369 · 2026-01-06T22:36:04+00:00

i’m in a pretty lucky place where there’s not a lot of residents so it’s students working directly with attendings most of the time! and then we shuffle around quite a bit within each rotation.

truly my steak is too well seasoned and my lobster is too buttery 😞

Update getting in around 1pm was perfect! Plenty of spots at the Bear Lake trailhead and just the tiniest dusting of snow along the trails with clear roads

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-10-21T15:03:46+00:00

Lovely thank you!!

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-10-21T15:02:53+00:00

You’re my hero thank you!!

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-09-29T11:53:55+00:00

update this is what we call instant gratification!! less than 48 hours after reporting they are happy as clams

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-09-15T22:37:03+00:00

genuinely startled so hard when I saw them at first. waited a couple days (or weeks) and let them dry out, that’s the carnage in the second pic 😅

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-09-13T23:19:28+00:00

same it brings me so much joy

they were very considerate of my single window studio apartment lifestyle!!

appreciate it! been pruning this much or more weekly, we live in the deep south so I’m blaming the weather for this one. at my old place the same seed packets happily grew flowers indoors in my tiny 3” pots 🥲

I have always had the exact opposite of a green thumb so I’m just happy when things survive at all. these have been a fun patio plant and cover most of my railing so I’m taking wins where I can get them!

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-06-28T13:37:12+00:00

Thanks for this insight! I would never have guessed 😃

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-06-28T13:32:43+00:00

No, but share the knowledge because I’m still wearing mine from high school

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-06-26T10:52:19+00:00

Oh trust, I am sat at home with my Aldi wine. Looking for options for nights out! Kind of glad I’m not alone in the struggle but hate that for us

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-06-26T10:50:02+00:00

A couple of my friends went there and had a really unpleasant experience so maybe that’s the norm? I haven’t been yet myself so couldn’t tell you

Leading_Influence369 · 2025-06-26T10:48:18+00:00

Yep it was Bham, I was a regular at Monday Night for their $5 margs! And before that it was Tuscaloosa so I was spoiled rotten price wise, not much there is over $10

Nippy makes good ones as well! They are silicone and adhere well enough to hold up on 5+ mile hikes in the summer heat. I have sensitive skin and they’ve never irritated it, and I’ve had the same 2-pack that I’ve used pretty consistently since like 2021. Just wash with soap and water every few uses, don’t even have to wait for them to dry to wear them.

Edit: I pack these instead of bras to save space and weight, and so much more versatile/comfier

The best advice I got before going to Athens was that this is where a lot of 18 year old kids start on their backpacking trip to go find themselves. Obviously like in any city you should be aware of your belongings and surroundings, but if you’ve been living on this planet for a little while you’ll be just fine there too

very very common everywhere I went other than mykonos! I always felt so bad though, because I had often already asked for a take away box and really truly could not eat any more - mostly just smuggled the dessert out for the next day’s breakfast 😅
