Modules are loaded synchronously but I'm guessing your database setup is 
asynchronous (i.e. done using a callback). You should rewrite the app module in 
such a way that you're exporting a function that takes a callback, and that 
callback gets called with the db object as a parameter once it's available. You 
could also take a look at using something like Cloud9's architect 
(https://github.com/c9/architect) or flatiron's broadway 
(https://github.com/flatiron/broadway) to help manage dependencies by treating 
them like plugins.
