I MATCHED IN HOUSTON!!!!

[gingerBcookie]

OMG!! I am soooo freaking HAPPY AND EXCITED ------ WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOO! The posted the preliminary results today, meaning you only get to know if you matched or not, but since i only put down houston choices, since i matched i know i''m in houston!!!!!! They were supposed to post the results by noon, so my friend and i have been checking the computer every hour on the hour, and at noon, we could n''t get on because every freakin medical studen across the country was trying to log on at the same time...talk about anxiety ridden omputer experiences!! We finally got on 10 minute later. She found out first that she matched and i said "Congratualtions now hand over the computer!" I didn''t know my id so i had to search for it, then i couldn''t log on for another cuz the server was soo busy so i was sitting there for another five minute with my heart pounding in my ears staring at the little hourglass....seriously...one of the longest five minute of my LIFE!!!


THIS MEANS I GET TO KEEP MY PRETTY NEW HOUSE!!! WOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I''m probably dating myself, but I went to my brother''s when he matched. Back then (he''s a chairman now, so it was quite a few years ago), it was the blow out party (the faculty tended bar and the students, including my very conservative brother, were literally dancing on the tables) on the night the matches were announced. It''s an acronym. The last four letters stand for "I Got My Internship" (back when doctors routinely did internships before residency). I''ll let your figure out what the other letters stand for yourself.
