I was in drumline in high school 8 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,200 Speaker 1: and it was actually a terrible day because I had 9 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 1: already I thought we were like doing this like trip 10 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,480 Speaker 1: away at a later date, but it was that day. 11 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: So I made us like an hour late. I was 12 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: the sole person on a bus of fifty people. Oh no, 13 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: Like it made us late. 14 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 2: And in addition to that, after we got there, after 15 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 2: I'm finally like okay, like I'm I'm over the anxiety 16 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 2: and like, you know, beating myself up for making us 17 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 2: all late.

Like. The 27 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 1: good news is it's actually not super heavy. 28 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: It's like most massive hollow but it's just it's just 29 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 2: so massive, so it's like terrifying to have this like giant, 30 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 2: like huge thing just falling you, you know what I mean. 31 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that definitely doesn't sound good, and I'm glad you 32 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: didn't fully break it for me, I think. I mean, 33 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: I scratched my roommate's car and that was rough. 34 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: But I felt bad because port like Sam doesn't usually drive, 35 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: and like I read that bike every they're just like 36 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 2: cosmetic scratches, so it wasn't a big deal. But poor 37 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 2: Sam was literally just like going going through it, and 38 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 2: you know, it was just a few scratches, like I've 39 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 2: actually ripped off my entire bumper. But the good news 40 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 2: is Honda Civics are literally built like a lego, so 41 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: I was able to snap it back in place and 42 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 2: I have done no fixing whatsoever, and you wouldn't even notice. 43 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: What yep, okay dude shout out to Honda absolute. I 44 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 1: have a story about things that actually did break for goodday. 45 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: If ffd up by destroying a sixteen one hundred dollars laptop, 46 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 1: which cost me sixty five thousand dollars a year of 47 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: my life and possibly ruining my entire career. So about 48 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 1: six months ago, I was in the library studying for 49 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: the hardest test of my first year of medical score 50 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: already off to a bad start, I had a cup 51 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: of water that I was drinking without a lid, of course, 52 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: and after a sip, I tried to set it back down, 53 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: but it slipped out of my hand and spilled all 54 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 1: over my laptop. I turned the laptop upside down and 55 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: got napkins to try to soak up the water, but 56 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: my battery is not removable without taking off the bottom laptop, 57 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: so I just shut it off and hope for the best. 58 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 1: I left it off for a few hours, hopefully let 59 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: all the water dry it, but alas the computer was fried. No. 60 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: I was pissed because I had splurged on an MSIGT 61 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: seventy two dominator, which was amazing and cost me way 62 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: too much money. I spent all day taking it apart 63 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: trying to dry it out, but I'm pretty sure the 64 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: motherboard has severe electric damage, so it was a complete 65 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: day wasted. I still had a test to study for 66 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: which was only a week away, so I had to 67 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: go to Walmart and buy a cheap eleven inch Chromebook 68 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: to hold me over until my replacement laptop came in 69 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: the mail, which eleven inches is small as heck. That 70 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: is super It's like it's like an iPad with a keyboard. 71 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: My school has a testing service that we install in 72 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: our laptops that allowed us to be able to take 73 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: tests on them, so I installed it on my IY 74 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: Chrome Book and thought I was ready for the test. 75 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: All right, you know this, the sixteen hundred dollars fried 76 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: laptop isn't going to stop me for taking the most 77 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: important test of my career. But here comes the major 78 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 1: f up. Oh no, this test was four hours long 79 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 1: and I barely finished in time. After we submit our tests, 80 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: we were able to instantly review and are shown our 81 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: right or wrong answers. I'm going through mine. It's looking okay, 82 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: not getting everything right, but I'm thinking, ah, I'm looking 83 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: pretty good. Then I get to a question that doesn't 84 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: seem to have the right answer provided, and I think, 85 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: what the f and start looking at it more closely, 86 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 1: at the answer options. It's then that I see the 87 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: answer option box. It's then I see the answer options 88 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 1: box has the ability to scroll down, and I see 89 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: that there are ten possible answers. We had never had 90 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: ten possible answers before on any exam, and since my 91 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: computer screen was O teeny tiny, I had only seen 92 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: five and assumed they were all there. No, so I 93 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: ended up getting half of those questions wrong because when 94 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 1: I answered them, I didn't even see the right answer 95 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: on my screen. And I emailed some people but got 96 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: no help and basically was told too bad, you suck. 97 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: Takes about a week for a final scores to be 98 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: calculated and released. I knew it was going to be 99 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: close when I finally got them back, but I saw 100 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: the worst news I could possibly see. No, I had 101 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: failed by half of one percent, half of one percent, 102 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 1: half of percent. Oh man, that is some terrible news. 103 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: Do you want to be consoled? Join our patreon in 104 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: our patreon only discord server, and we'll make sure to 105 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: give you the love that you deserve. I had a 106 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: meeting with a committee where they told me that because 107 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: the class was so long, that I wouldn't be able 108 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 1: to just retake the test during the summer, which is 109 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: the normal protocol for someone who fails a class, but 110 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,679 Speaker 1: I'd have to repeat the entire first year. The entire 111 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: first year, or half a percent. 112 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 2: For half a percent, I am smacking someone with my 113 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 2: tiny ass laptop. 114 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, pretty crappy. Since this will go on my transcript, 115 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: it makes me less competitive when applying to residencies, which 116 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: is where you go after you finish your pre med stuff. 117 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,440 Speaker 1: So I basically can say goodbye to any of the 118 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 1: ultra competitive specialties like dermatology or plastic surgery. I didn't 119 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: know plastic surgery was so competitive. It is because those 120 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: people will make movie. Yeah, oh, I can imagine. Think 121 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 1: of all the movie stars. And just to be clear, 122 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 1: I am no way blaming the test or my computer 123 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: anyone but myself for this. I realized this is entirely 124 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,040 Speaker 1: my fault, and I should have known that the answers 125 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: weren't there, and it's my fault that I'd spilled the 126 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: water on my computer. But what I am saying is 127 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 1: if I had just a bigger screen, I wouldn't have 128 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: screwed up as much as I did. And I am sad. 129 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: That is beyond tragic. And for a test that means 130 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: so much to you, like so much, so much, dude, 131 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: that's rough. I honestly like that. I'm glad that I 132 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,600 Speaker 1: feel like no longer do I feel like any one 133 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: project or deadline that I have in my life will 134 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: govern my life. But like I remember back in you know, 135 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 1: college and high school, it was like, this next test 136 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: will determine the whole career in life from going forward, 137 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: and it was a lot more scary. But it gets better. 138 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: Unless you're a doctor, ear lawyer. Yeah all you guys, 139 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: you're all screwed. 140 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 2: But everyone else, Like, it's also hilarious because like it 141 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 2: all matters like zero percent. 142 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: Now I would say you, like, yeah, unless you're a 143 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: doctor or lawyer. Yeah, again, you guys totally screwed by 144 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 1: everyone else. Yeah, but regardless, if you're a doctor, a lawyer, 145 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: or just a regular person, you know what you should 146 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: do to make yourself feel better.
