Dental schools when white applicants were able to get clinical jobs through family and school connections: "Yes, networking, an excellent skill for a prospective student. Well done."

Dental schools when non-white applicants were able to get clinical jobs through family and school connections: "Did you really merit that job though? I think you just used your connections as a crutch and didn't put actual work in. Not the kind of quality we want in a student."

bringing you a not-so-aesthetic side of being a student. it’s 11:45pm and i’m not even close to finishing this LO. but i know that i got this!

Life update: school is going well :D I really like learning about how complex the human body is! Holy crap EVERYTHING has a name! The triangular piece of cartilage in the front opening of the ear? That's called the tragus!

The chin? More like the Mental Protuberance

We finally got to tooth anatomy and it's so small, yet so intricate. I got to see a model of a TODDLER'S SKULL with the succedaneous teeth still under the primary ones and it looks so cool and weird!

My first dental school interview is coming up quick and I weirdly feel a lot better than I did before. Just getting the invitation says a lot and shows that they take me seriously enough to desire to meet me. That means so much to me especially after all the hoops I had to jump through to get to this point. (Trust, there are plenty more to go) but… *Michael Scott vc* somehow I manage

January 2, 2024.

There are only a couple of days each year that Tumblr takes a date and makes a fraction. Today is one of those days. I just wanted to explain why the date is written the way it is.

I'm sure you've all been experiencing the end-of-year lists. Personally, I love them. It makes for easy music perusing. It also serves as a reminder for a few releases that may have slipped my mind during the normal avalanche of new music.

Mt. St. Mtn. (Sacramento, California) had an amazing release year, but somehow XDS "Bicycle Ripper" didn't get a post. The story of the formation of the band is great - Japanese drummer in Chico answers a want ad for noise maker. XDS has moved around (but are back in Chico, California), and toured a lot over the past couple of years. They've toured with Deerhoof (whom they also remind me of). At times, they have a sound reminiscent of Marnie Stern, Buick or Starlight Mints.

Feeling pretty defeated. I really wanted to go to dental school this time around. Last semester I was really upset that I couldn’t go because this next semester starting- I didn’t think would be any better. In fact I felt like it would be harder. But now that I’m at the cafe m-f and I only have four?more weeks of working at the aba clinic since I’m gonna let my certification run out. I figured it would be great because by the time I left the clinic- I’d be at a point where I have to start my internship outside of the dental class. And that wouldn’t take up any more of my time than the clinic was, ya know? And then I’d be graduating right before my lease is up. It honestly lines up pretty great - if I went this semester. Perfect, actually.

But asking my parents for 3k for school at Christmas time isn’t any better than asking 1 week before I needed it last time.

Just feel like it’s not going to happen. Which isn’t terrible. I mean I’m really happy at the cafe! I’m having lots of fun and my manager feels like she’ll become one of my close friends. Plus I have a guaranteed day to spend with my bff (even though busting ass isn’t the “quality time” we enjoy lol) but my stress levels have plummeted and I don’t really dread going to work.

Next option is to wait till tax season and put the money I need to pay for it away in a savings and wait for the next semester again and just pay for it myself.

I just want to support my family better. Is that so much to ask? Going to school for this feels like my light at the end of the tunnel, ya know? And each time it gets closer, it’s actually just further away.
