I've spent the past week (quite literally 10 days) reading the Twilight books... Have one to go. They are really good. Very addicting. Don't know too many guys who've read them. But I was informed that I couldn't have been my Halloween costume without reading at least the first one...(I was Edward, heard he was vampire and I had vampire teeth, real easy costume, I have some pretty awesome pictures if you're curious). It went over really well. Many compliments.
so if I join an organization at school (FAPA) and become an officer it's pretty much a shoe-in to any PA school I want....to join I'd have to quit gymnastics, and quit my coaching job, so I could be considered an active member long enough to run for officer...
to put it bluntly, you wouldn't expect any less right ;), i'm not very big on independent voters. i view them the same way i view theistic evolutionists, too afraid or uninformed to take a stand. i do not really support mccain, he's too liberal for my taste, however, i would rather have him that obama. i voted for palin. this election is too important to cop out with an independent vote. to save millions of unborn children i vote for mccain, for everything else i vote for palin. had he not put palin on his ticket i would not have voted at all. i would rather support a semi-republican than do nothing and allow a socialist to take control. make sense?
...here is an unwanted person giving you opinion towards the "shoe in"....your brother is right. Gymnasistics can be rejoined at a later time, and your coaching job is a small sacrifice for the rest of your entire life's career, if that is indeed what you plan to do as a career. Having a "shoe in" and not having to fight for a place into PA med school is a gift, and if you must pay dues be it monetary or physical duty, then so be it. Life is NEVER fair and giving up "official" participation in the one for success throughout the rest of your life is well worth the immediate gratification. =) You know every word of this...but it was you who posted...lol Hope your books and stethoscope are working out for you. Sorry...I posted...but for some strange reason I had a dream and therefore it brought me to read your site after all this time. Wish you, your brother, family and friends well... and Jake. lol later
