Med school like 99.999999% of the other life sci students >__<;;;; and If I don't get in on first try, Masters degree, and I'll keep applying until I get tired of applying and just do the BAR test and become a lawyer/throw away all my science education completely. loll maybe I'll take a stab at politics if I'm a complete failure. Actually I did think about persuing research if whatever I'm doing for a Masters is interesting enough.
but my hopes and dreams ride on med school x|

1. Develop income sources where I am not trading my time for money.
2. Find amazing (safe) sex partners/friends to have great times with (be one myself of course).
3. Cook great meals, play beautiful music, speak several languages, inspire people.
4. Maintain a high level of fitness and health.
5. Dress to kill (so to speak).
6. Forever pursue a higher level of self-actualization.

I assume you know that's almost impossible, right? Not quite, but almost. |

Well, technically not AFTER University. I'm aiming to have one of these by next year 
I want to get into Real Estate. But also thinking about doing a M.Eng in power/renewable technology, we'll see.

They have a whole program for it called the CIP, where you get paid to do a Masters, Post-Doc or PhD during residency. http://www.fhs.mcmaster.ca/cip/graduates.html
Now I know its not going to be easy to get in, or to do, but neither is medical school. It's a goal and a dream.

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Plus I kinda don't want to have to go to seminars every other weekend and sleep in hotel rooms that still smell of the previous week's prom vomit just to keep up with the current topics in medicine. |

Well I had been planning on getting into anything metallurgy related. But, in May I ended up working as a civil engineer doing consulting mainly for site services (water service, septic systems, storm water management ponds and parking lots). Also do some project management for wstewater and water treatment plants.
