I'm a bit behind myself. No exam for a month though, so my priorities are as follows:

1. WTF should I do with my life?
2. working out
3. working out liver
4. lab work
5. studying.

I think we should talk about number one.


I have always been fond of people who teach ballroom dance. Maybe you could do that.

You have to create and program the robot before you can teach it. If you teach it to love, you might want to have a rape whistle and an EMP generator on hand, just in case.

It won't be quite the same experience, since it's not at the Big House and there won't be nearly the same crowd size, but it should still be a fun game to watch. Do you have tickets?

My problem is that the summer rotted my brain in addition to my entire senior year. :laugh:

I will study a lot this week. I need to at least get close to catching up.

That's what I told myself last week, but with exams every 2 weeks, you can only fall so much behind before your ass gets kicked. And then the cycle starts all over again weeee!

Yeah, but we only have 3 sets of exams per semester. So it technically is possible to "catch up." First one is 3 weeks from today.
 
This Boise-VT game should be interesting.

I'm going to miss so much football this upcoming week because of the way my flights are scheduled (during part of the Saints' game and during some college games on Saturday).

Where are you going?

Agreed.
 
go Boise. this is awesome. 👍
 
Whew!!! :clap:


...I think its obvious why I'm cheering for Boise State.
 
That was a great game and I really didn't care who won, but the last 2 minutes were total BS.

Boise was gifted ~45 yards on the no-call with the block in the back and the late hit.

Granted, that doesn't excuse the abomination that was the last VT drive. :laugh:

Won't be nearly the same crowd size? we seat 105,000, michigan games usually get to 107,000 (we squeeze ppl in lol), and ohio stadium is more vertical, thus louder...yes of course I have tickets! 3rd michigan game for me

sigh, idk how im gonna pass this first test friday...
 
genetics final tomorrow morning, eep! and anatomy later tomorrow and wednesday. should be fine, but i can't believe i've been here long enough for exams already!

also, HI everyone!!

It's quite clear that block wasn't in the back - I was yelling at the TV (err...computer) when I saw a flag thrown and was shocked to see the refs actually pick up the flag and admit it was a rush to judgement.
 
I've decided today that I cannot go to Histo anymore. The professor today was different and much better, but I just don't learn well with 4 hours of lecture and lab (which is just sitting down with the computer and looking at slides) in a row. I'm just going to study somewhere else instead.

Shadowing in about an hour. I'm pretty excited.
 
this might be a stupid question, but are labs required in med school like they are in undergrad?

From what I can gather so far, it depends on the class. For instance, at my school, you have to go to anatomy lab, especially when it is your group's turn to dissect; however, our histology labs are optional, meaning that the slides/images are all available online and there is no set time enforced for you to go to an actual lab and observe them. Now, that being said, even with the histology labs the way they are and even though they are up to you to complete, it is prudent to do them during the recommended timeline.

The school is organized so that different groups are in charge of dissecting different parts of the body and they present their dissections to the other groups...something like that. lstone or dingy can clarify. I don't feel like studying and I'm just trying to waste time right now.

That's lame, they should just dissect the whole thing.

Yep. That's it. It's a peer teaching method. There are four color groups, and as an example, tomorrow, blue group gets to dissect the hand and forearm. Then, come Friday, they show us everything they found and teach us everything we need to know.

I would not be a fan of that. Either make me do everything or nothing at all. But if it works for them, whatevs.

LSU and Oregon are now playing in Dallas (Jerryworld) to kick off the season next year. I'm already counting myself in attendance. :laugh:
