I disliked Krippy during anatomy because of block 2.
I liked her more during neuro because her lectures made sense.

uggh. It is on Tuesday!

hardest lecture ever
I talked to my neighbor who is a second year, and she said she is still confused about that lecture. Block 2 is really starting to feel like real med school. I love how they eased us into med school with nice short and simple block 1. I had a feeling they would take off at break neck speed as soon as block 2 started.
That's the truth.
badasshairday, I've been wondering this for a while now, but I don't think I've asked it yet: How is your screenname supposed to be broken down: badass-hair-day or bad-asshair-day? Knowing the answer to this will really put my mind at ease...

Block 2 of M1 was probably the hardest thing in all of med school for a number of reasons. First rotation of M3 close second.
Whoa, post #333. That's half of the beast. Spooky.
And #2008 in this thread. Very spooky.

Dr. Poulos would be so proud of you for catching that...
Dr. Poulos is easily the most likely to appreciate such a thing of any attending I have ever had. He certainly appreciated my "if you were to discreetly take any piece of a person home to eat, which piece would it be?" question during my forensics rotation. I don't think there was another day all month without him bringing it up.
What can I say, I was hungry for a good steak.
His answer, by the way, was psoas major. Filet mignon.
Sooooo, when you guys were M1's who lectured for the pterygopalatine fossa? Krip said it was her first time lecturing it, and she said that when her husband winced when she said she was going to do the pterygopalatine fossa lecture. She also added that her neice, a recent grad from MCW, said that she too is confused about it. Then I remembered how all of you guys said it would be crazy.
Anyways, Krippendorf told us that she would try to make sure we understood it because if she can understand it, so can we. I went into it with expectations that I would be completely confused. My strategy was not to take notes, but to pay as much attention as possible to understand a little bit.
At the end of it, the lecture ended up not so bad. I mean some of the spacial stuff will take time to get used to, but I still got a lot of it. Even many of my other classmates agreed. I guess Krippendorf is just that good and you guys just got bamboozled with a lecturer that confused you!

I could almost swear it was Krippendorf for the c/o 2009...I can't think of who else it would have been - I know Kolesari or Bolender didn't do it.
Still waiting on an answer to my question above, BAHD.

I would've sworn Krippy too, but after looking at my anatomy binder, I learned it was Gregory Rajala (pronounced [Ra-la] -- because, yes, I wrote that down too) on 20 Sept 2005.
The notes are all pictures with a few Kolesari like bullet points and the weird open pyramid on the front.
So anyways, it is the end of September and I thought it would be getting cold by now, but it has been nice. I came to Milwaukee expecting the weather to be horrible, but it has been pretty damn nice since the time I came here back in early August. I was expecting a lot more rain.
Yeah, he was a professor at Marquette or something. Just gave one lecture.I would've sworn Krippy too, but after looking at my anatomy binder, I learned it was Gregory Rajala (pronounced [Ra-la] -- because, yes, I wrote that down too) on 20 Sept 2005.

Just got back from devo tutoring session. It kicks ass. I think this is the last year that scott is doing it. So far the class of 2012 has lucked out in terms of the pterygopalantine fossa lecture and having scott still. Plus the weather has been very pleasant. Hopefully we luck out for this winter and don't get a brutal winter like you guys had to experience last year.
hopefully this doesn't mean you'll all pay for the luck by getting wiped out by a horrible plague just before graduating, too.
ah, yes. But it would be okay, because we would die a happy man/women because we were not confused as hell about the pterrygopalantine fossa.

I enjoyed the fact that I hadn't thought of the pterygopalantine fossa until it was brought up on here since anatomy. No reason for me to have known it in the last 3 years of med school.
Tomorrow the class schedule states that 11am-1pm is INTEGRATED GRAND ROUNDS in Kerrigan. Wtf is that?

free lunch with oreo brownies i don't like, but i think Splat does.

Besides the free lunch, how worthwhile is it to go to? I'm thinking it would be a better use of my time to study during that 3 hour block to free up more time of chilling out on friday night.
Quick question. For devo, are those clinical correlate guest lectures testable material? We don't have any notes for it in our packet of notes. Is it worth it for me to listen the those lectures, or would it be a better use of time to study Bolender's lectures exclusively?
No clue, sorry. The gunners in your class have probably already directly asked Bolender this question...see if you can find out from them.
aw. I would ask, but i never go to class... except for anatomy lecture and McBride once in a while because he shows us how to have a good time. I guess I'll just listen to those clinical lectures at 2x speed.
Wow, I finally have experienced Gunnerism. Just wow.... I mean I knew about gunners, but wow. Seeing gunners in action is like...

Apparently everyone knows this chick is a gunner, because I brought it up with my lab group and my roommate and they all had some experience with her gunnerism. My roommate told me how in anatomy lab one of the doctors came around to his cadaver to talk to his group about anatomy stuff. The gunner comes from some other table and totally takes control. The doctor is asking some questions to everyone collectively and she asnwers all of them before anyone even has a chance and starts completing the doctor's sentences. Some real Gunner **** right there.

While we're on gunning, I can say give my response to this one too. Now I've never been a point-grubbing type when it came to tests, but when I came up literally one test question short of honoring CTB I went and discussed at least three potentially ambiguous questions on the final test, but ol' Krippy would not give me the benefit of the doubt. I had liked her ok before that but of course this left a bad taste in my mouth.
Do you think gunners are aware that they are gunners? And do they know it annoys people? Or are they too self absorbed and worried about being better than everyone else to even think about that?
