Sometimes spam is funny.

5 Comments

My sister and my friend Megan are always accusing me of being gay. Joining a gym didn’t help my image all that much (I was feeling like a blob so I had to do something.)

Imagine my surprise when I got a message from a guy at the gym telling me, “I cannot forget you! your big love, ;-)” Of course it was a virus (there was a program attached) but it was pretty funny.

And, in case you’re wondering, I’m just not that good at finding women interested in me.

I just got home from work at 12:00AM and I started out the day at 8:30AM so it’s time to hit the hay. Hooray for small software companies!

  1. I just finished reading all of your material on this and your medical school sites. You and I share many of the same characteristics. I’m also nikkei (Nisei), have a younger sister (but by three and a half years), am just a little older than you (by four months and a few days), have applied many times to medical school (currently just finished my first year), and have a mom who travels to Japan (although not as often). I come from quaint JA roots; my father (pushing seventy) runs a gardening business in So Cal (probably close to the last of the breed). Like you, I also have four degrees: one B.S. and three M.S. I’m not into “CQCQ” although my uncle in Japan is. If medicine is your thing, please don’t give up! I do agree that the mid to late 90’s was the peak of the application cycle (close to three applicants to every available seat, currently the ratio is closer to 2:1). I started to apply in the same year that you stopped; I was finishing my M.S. in Cell and Neurobiology (awarded December, 1999 from USC as in Trojans). I had to pursue this last degree because I felt that I had to prove that I could handle medical school coursework due to much less than stellar grades as an undergrad at U.C. Davis (B.S. in Biochemistry awarded June of 1988). Although my April 1997 MCAT was only a 31S (11 VR, 10’s for the rest), my April 2002 MCAT was a 35Q (11 VR, 12’s for the rest). I eventually worked and gained residence in Illinois where I go to school. You are not too old; in my class, I am not the oldest student. In addition like most Japanese-Americans, you and I look younger than our age. Feel free to e-mail me. BTW my Japanese middle name is Konosuke which sounds like but has different characters than the former National (Panasonic) president’s name.

  2. That Japanese dude doesn’t seem overtly insane like you, though. HA HA HA. What are you doing getting home at midnight? That didn’t give you any time to go see your big love at the gym, did it.

  3. Oh my God!!! I love Hubert!! Please make friends with him….does his sister think that he’s gay? Let’s find out!
    Sounds like Hermiston was a good time. Walmart rocks, you just don’t know how to do it right…I’ll take you sometime.
    There were lots of chickies at my gym yesterday…one’s that would probably date you even!!
