The 3G Ramblings & General Discussion Thread (Trois)
Oddly enough, my old family doctor was and she has 7 kids.
She was a doctor.
Husband was a doctor.
3 kids were already doctors.
1 decided to become a psychologist.
3 were still too young to be doctoral but they were on their way.
As for the psychologist? Momma was ashamed and said "you'd better go back to school and become a REAL doctor!!" And so he did. fuckin family... Anything less is an insult to the family name

J, momma's doing it all wrong. If you want Zoe to be successful in life, you need to constantly tell her that you're disappointed and ashamed of whatever she does. This will in turn ensure that she becomes a highly successful doctor. Or, at the very least, a dentist.
You can shame her again if she does become a dentist though. That's just simply unacceptable

There was no such thing as praise in my family. Still doesn't exist. My sister is finishing up her Internal Med residency and my Mom still regularly tells her that she's not going to be a good doctor.
That goes well.
I got 100% once on a maff test but because I cared more about getting everything right, I skipped the "bonus" question for bonus marks that would've given me over 100% because I spent the time to recheck my work...
"WHY YOU NO GET 105%?!???!?"

Or the best one, I played piano generally well as a kid...grew up in a mostly gwai-ro area and so, piano competitions often had many gwai-ro kids.
One time, I took home the regional prize but it was against all gwai-ro kids.
"DON'T GET TOO CONFIDENT...YOU DID NOT BEAT CHINESE KID AND IT WAS EASY. AND I THINK YOU HAD A SLIP IN ONE OF YOUR BARS."

My 1st 2 years of college did not have very good marks...I will admit my college antics and refusal to study probably stemmed from being driven into the ground during grade skoo.
Completely destroyed any shot at med skoo or dentistry skoo...As my Ma would say, "such shame..."
OOPSH.

They did that shit on the 405 around Inglewood a few weeks back..
those mofo's need to be shot and/or arrested because there is absolutely NO reason to be doing that shit..
MLK is rolling over in grave and double face palming.. that shit ain't peaceful.

almost got kicked out my 1st and 2nd year
just goes to show that GPA and skool is a joke.
I was kicked out too, but worked hard to be readmitted.
To be fair thou, I was struggling due to my dad being diagnosed with colon cancer.

You had a legit excuse...I truly had none...between the GF at the time and generally slacking off in the computer labs to play games like Quake and Doom...Who had time to study?

Sure, it would've cost me $40K USD per year...but, I did get in. So, another case of "shame for family" cuz I did not get a scholarship.
Oopsh.
