Follow a gang of premed students gone wild and their misadventures in a cutthroat medical university! (A comedy sideblog. All follows will be from ask-the-iron-queen.)
Mod: Just sort of a roll call to see how many people still remember that this blog exists
School sucks bro, not sure how much longer I gotta postpone material for this again. This blog is indefinitely on hold, if you didn’t already notice.
Maybe I might do a reboot even. Either here or on another website. Though tumblr’s UI is so prettyyyyyyy but you know, I’ve slowly forgotten how to use it.
Sorry for the inactivity? Things have been really busy for me. About to finish up premed and head to grad school. Though hey I still have dialogue for this blog written that I want to draw... someday. I haven’t even had time to draw at all lately.
the harmonia university portion is sort of like a showcase for what it’s kind of like to be a certain major in college; kind of like how @the-premed-pokedogs is centered around pre-med students, mine is based on math and computer science majors
definitely not because i’m studying those or anything and want to sort of gripe about my own experiences but…yeah
Boomer: Mod here. Thought I should sort of reblog this and throw in my two cents.
OMG I’m glad I could serve as some inspiration to this concept. (I’m assuming? I don’t see this being done a lot) This was actually my exact intention when I made this blog - I wanted these comics to show what its like to be premed students in college and to show that even healthcare professionals are just like any other college students and came from humble beginnings at this point in their lives...
With a cast and comics based on my RL friend group here at my university, of course.
But I do feel strangely touched by this omg. its a fun thing to do - talk about your major through comics that tell funny stories/interactions and characters. I’m glad I’m not the only one toying with this idea.
I should get working on this blog again. This actually sort of motivated me to work on this blog some more! I have so much material that I have yet to draw, but you know. Premed is an unforgiving field and I barely have time to do this even.
Doesn’t mean I’ll stop trying though!
Boomer: Yeah you probably expected an actual post after months of inactivity.
But no it’s just another update. BUT the good news is - I will be working on blog stuff again!
Somehow I keep thinking that summer vacation is less busy for me so I have more time to work on blog stuff but NOPE - usually its even busier than the school year is. So it is safe to assume that this blog will have new posts again once I’m back in school and I have lots of stories to share turned into the comics you see here!
I know I’ve been neglecting @ask-the-iron-queen too but I can explain - I juggled three jobs for a while and for MONTHS I was unable to even have a day off without working but at the same time I was dealing with internships and job shadowing for school so I barely had time to draw in general.
But I also felt like updating these blogs would garner no attention and no one would notice so I felt like working on them would just be pointless and I was in a bit of a motivation slump so I began working on a few private projects that I will eventually post on my art blog @thatonecoffeeherdier
Hopefully the upcoming school year will bring the ol’ motivation back and I’ll start with this blog before moving onto iron-queen! New comics planned and I’ll probably kick off the start of another school year with another comic.
Other stuff planned for this blog this year (If anyone still cares or is interested): Some evolutions and some throwbacks to previous years of college for the gang. Maybe even a few origin stories or something.
Thanks for sticking around if you’re still following this blog!
Chad: I DON’T WANNA DO WORK I WANNA SLEEEEEEEEEEP NOW NOW NOWWWWWW. WAAAAAAAAAAAh
Alex the Great: Zzz... Uhh- Grant, fuck off... I know how to do suturezzzz... Zzz...
Boomer: SHHH you’ll wake up sleeping beauty. I want to see how wet he can make his notes with just his drool. Keep it down over there - just don’t drown in that puddle of tears.
Peyts: I’m a premed student so I guess that kind of counts-
Grant: SHUT UP PEYTS, YOU CAUSED THIS.
Katie: Hehe, even though it was me? Gosh, I’m sorry, Boomer. And to think ice beam only has a 10% chance of freezing people. I can try to thaw you out if you want!
Boomer: Mmmmmffff. Mrrrg grrrf hrm.
Katie: What did he say?
Grant: That he’ll be sure to prescribe you a nice, healthy 450mg dose of whoopass once he thaws out.
Spring Break can’t get any better than being on the best beach in Costa Rica...
Regina: Serves you right. You deserved that, asshole.
Boomer: If you’re going to be a puta at least be one in Spanish. We’re both stuck translating for the rest of this medical mission trip so you’d better practice before we get to the clinic tomorrow morning!
Regina: Well this is the Spanish version of “Fifty Shades Darker”
Grace: It’s really not that big of a deal though, I would kill for some of that natural blue hair you have! Ooh and I love the necklace! Where did you get that? Etsy? Amazon? Oooh, did you get the idea from Pinterest? I might need to get one for myself!
Chad: Hey Grace, I hate to interrupt but don’t look now - Boomer and Peyts are performing BSEs on each other like, right behind you.
Grace: …Then they wouldn’t be BSE’s anymore, now would they?
Original post is an interaction between @asktoastythearcanine and @ask-eddie-the-espeon by the way. I figured I should give credit where credit is due.
For some context, the original thread is HERE.
Apparently this anon believes vaccines cause Autism…
…This calls for an announcement from your friendly neighborhood canine premed students in the pokeask community.
Boomer: By that logic, almost everyone in a country that provides vaccines would have autism. And that’s definitely not true.
Grantbull: Man I dunno, Boomer. This anon seems to know more than us in the medical field about this kind of thing! I wonder where they got their medical degree? Web M.D College? Google University? Geez, our lowly med school education can’t compete with education from those types of schools!
Chad: Sounds to me like they went to the well-acclaimed School of Hard Knocks, boys! I heard they have quite a shitty medical program though.
Seriously though.
Please vaccinate your kids as well as yourselves.
For the health of you and the people around you.
Also, I know I posted this before, but I was told that the images weren’t showing up correctly and were too small to be seen on the blog itself. Weird theme problems I guess.
So here’s a repost in a form where you’re able to see the full images directly on the blog.
Remind me not to reply directly to another post with pictures and instead use screenshots so the reply images won’t shrink like that again.
Thank you Yonder for pointing out this error. I honestly didn’t notice how weird this theme was until you notified me!
The Messenger stops in her tracks, awestruck by the appearance of another Furfrou, “Furfrou and half Furfrou ladies! So pretty!! Aww, too bad you don’t like around here! Then I wouldn’t feel odd! Oh! Good thing you don’t either! It’s dangerous here you know!! Furfrou like me and Half Furfrou like me!”
She takes a deep breath to recollect herself so she could answer the questions asked, “OK! Dogs…Dogs…Furfrou….YES! I mean no! Well…Yes other dogs! No Furfrou! I’ve seen many Houndoom and Mightyena in the Dead Zone. Arcanine, Stoutland, Manectric… and others elsewhere. You can sometimes catch sight of prevolutions, but they are forced to grow up fast to survive. No Furfrou though…Not anywhere. Not even in places in Arkwood I haven’t been according to those who have. You’re the first Furfrou I’ve seen! I don’t even know my parents! Or what they were doing here! …Or what happened to them or if they are still alive…! …Or why they left me…”
“Ahaha! So yeah, no Furfrou for miles! I…I need to go…The King will be angry if I’m late…!”
Allie: Dangerous huh? I think I can tough it out! I survived as one of the only girls on my campus hockey team, and rowing has really given me a hell of a workout, sister! There isn’t anything these biceps can handle heheh.
Boomer: The modesty is strong in this one... Pleased to meet you, by the way. The name’s Boomer, I’m a pal of her’s.
Allie: Shut up, Boomer. Anyway, that’s quite surprising actually! Not seeing a lot of other furfrou, I mean. See, I have a pack I sort of hang around and where I’m from we got all kinds of groups of dogs that sort of enjoy each other’s company and stick together through and through, you know? My pack really doesn’t have many furfrou but I know my friend Boomer’s does.
Boomer: I mean, I’m like, 1/4th furfrou. And I got some furfrou cousins... Actually, my grandma was a shiny like you too! An odd one she is... But the ones in my pack are I guess Allie here and another’s a girlfriend of one of my pals.
Allie: Can you stop butting in like that? It’s RUDE. Plus, I feel like your pack hates me so I don’t see why you count me as part of it.
Boomer: Nah, they just hate your pack, not you. And excuse me for trying to be polite, sheesh.
Allie: ANYWAY yeah that sounds awful I guess I stand corrected when it comes to being able to survive. I’ve always grown up in the city so nature wouldn’t really mix so well with me. But HEY I KNOW SOME OF THOSE DOGS YOU’RE TALKING ABOUT. I know a super-cool manectric and a really nice growlithe and even a houndoom too! But he's kind of an asshole...
Boomer: Alex the Great? Cool? Puh-lease. He’s all bark and no bite. OH. But don’t forget that Granbull in my pack and the Snubbull in yours. We could fill a whole dog pound with how many other dogs we know, heh.
Allie: YEAH THAT TOO. That’s really cool though! I wish I could meet other furfrou like you. Let alone shiny ones. Your name is... the Messenger, right? You seem really nice! Maybe you could drop by to chat one of these days? We’d all love to get to know you more!
Alex the Great and Chad look forward to a new roommate in their apartment...
Boomer: You two must have some weird fucking fetishes or something... I’ll be sure to lock the door to my bedroom when I sleep at night.
Chad: ...Nah man, it’s just a joke. But uh... Yeah. Welcome to the Chad Castle. Population: you, me and Alex the Great! I promise we’ll be even better roommates than Grantbull! The Fairy boy doesn’t know what he’s missing out on!
Alex the Great: ...Chad?
Chad: Yeah brah?
Alex the Great: You realize that the gig is now up, right? Give Grace her apron back and give Heather her dress back.
Peyts (the-premed-pokedogs) @ Tanashi: Oh hey there! It's not all the time I run into other growlithes! You really got a thick coat of fur going there! You got furfrou genes in you or something?
Tanashi:Oohh! But your hair is very nice too! n~n and you look super smart! I bet you buy lotsa candy n stuff!
Peyts: Hey thanks! It doesn’t have as much volume since I like to keep mine short and comb it back but it really is nothing special. Though I really need to get my hands on that 'nice hair stuff!’ I’m taking a gander that it’s shampoo of some sort? I dunno, maybe my friend Katie would know.
But ehhh, I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed but to be frank I do spend a lot of my money on candies. Not exactly the healthiest stuff in the world but well worth it! Oh and pies too. Pastries are probably my biggest weakness.
Peyts: ‘Her serial number is possibly 019327 and she was sent to earth to lure unsuspecting growlithes in for vaginal probing experiments… though these experiments are not performed on the growlithes but rather, BY them-’ oh my god, Dave. You can’t be fucking serious. You’ve been writing this crap instead of working on those final papers due tomorrow?!
Dave: I take it you’re not a fanfiction kind of guy, huh?
