I am going to be working on homework and studying all weekend too (for a Wednesday Calc exam! Coincidence?) during a huuuuuuuge football game. Not looking forward to beating through the crowds of overweight parents just to get some food so I don't die.

So! Don't feel lame. Because then I would feel lame.

Exams already? But school just started!

ditto here. i'm going to head down to the library to study. i'm not looking forward to meet up with my board members today 😎 gotta volunteer later too..argh.

Board members?

I prefer being apart of the group though haha. Im gonna study all this weekend even though I'm home. My family thinks I'm lame

haha. I'll be studying and catching up on research papers all weekend too. For some reason, my family thinks I have so much more free time now that I'm in college and are trying to make me go everywhere with them.
 
Exams already? But school just started!

This is the second week for me. And it's not quite an exam; my calc prof. is a high school teacher by day, and he likes to give frequent 10-point quizzes. 😀

However, I've kinda been slacking on my calc homework lately (what with drunken drive *******s) so I have a lot of work to do...:scared:
 
My library is too cold...and I have to work at an unfortunately-very-popular fast food chain tonight during the game...not looking forward to all the drunk frat boys and middle-aged lechers who compliment my hindquarters.

I wish I was joking. 🙁 Guarantee I get at least 10 drunks in the drive thru. 👎

you'll get hit on 😛 i'm pretty sure you're a cutie!

you'll be disappointing your parents a lot when you tell them no.

yeah i'm the president of my club and i have to meet up with the new board members i signed up

Yeah, I hated those 10 point quizzes in class. Are you in Calc I or II or III?

🙂
(Still, if they're drunk, they're drunk...even though I work in fast food, I *do* have standards 🙄)

One. Just derivatives. I hate calculus with a passion...took it in high school, and it killed all of my love for math. But the ten-point quizzes give me a chance to get good grades. I remind you, this guy is a high-school teacher...I think he recycles his quizzes :laugh:

I have those weekly and hate them. I'm in Calc 1, but I'm allergic to math, so it's difficult.
 
👍 more like your very own therapist/cheerleader

Then who is your therapist? Solve my research predicament. ElCapone makes me feel bad about myself 🙂

If you'll need help, hit me up on PM or FB. I've done AP Calc BC, so I should hopefully be solid on Calc I and Calc II stuff.

More like our mama 😉

jk Cali! But we couldn't live without you!

1. Then who is your therapist?
2. Solve my research predicament.
3. ElCapone makes me feel bad about myself 🙂

When are you finding time to do it? I was under the idea that most of it happens in the summer, and I'll be going back home then (where there is NO research at all).

Research is always faster in the summer because that's when you have the least stuff in the way. It's harder to do it during the school year, but my schedule is set up so that I can immediately hit the lab right after class.

What exactly are you doing for research?

Sounds good, but as always I think you're overworking yourself. I haven't been able to sleep well for like a week. I've got a headache too 🙁

Okay yay I'm back to my normal non-headache-y self! So I was invited to a small party tonight with booze. I'm dressed up yucky and stuff, so I don't feel like showing up, but I don't want to be rude either.

If you don't want to go, don't. The reason I say this is because you'll most likely a) not have fun b) not be on your "a" game for partying. Anyway, in my view it would be rude to go to a party you don't want to go to. Sorry if this came about rude/douche-esque but I'm a little annoyed at my family right now.

-My sister got all prissy because I ate the last bag of Doritos 😡
-My mom is yelling for some reason I don't even know...ugh 😕
-My dad is upset with me because I accidentally left the car light on --> the battery is now dead 🙁
 
What are you guys doing for research? I just started a project with the Neuroscience Department at my UG.

There are three concurrent projects going on, and as a first year Research Assistant, I get to pledge to one. Right now I'm leaning towards a study that's looking into the genetic linkages of the APOE gene to Alzheimer's (yeah, a bit overplayed, but as my preliminary experience in research, I'm actually pretty stoked)!

Worst part about it? 10 hours required per week...idk how I'm going to get that all in while studying for finals and stuff (I'm sort of a worry wart hahaha).

-tell her you'll go buy one
-help her with something kitcheny related?
-tell your dad you'll call triple A to jump start it

I have no research.


to everyone...
Also you guys, I know you're freshmens..soo your research experience more than likely will be ****ty. I'd rather, as a freshmen focus on my grades and networking rather than getting lame research pipetting or taking surveys. You want research where you can actually do stuff.

👍 (except the mom part, seriously don't want to get her started)
 
CaliGirl: Well, at my UG, if you don't start early, you won't get anything as a sophomore or junior! And I think every entry level research position is going to be minimal! You have to stick with it, show consistency and they'll give you more responsibility.

My whole rationale was that if I started too late, I would never really get the real "research experience."

But hey, it's different from UG to UG.

Too bad I feel like a loser for not having some yet 🙂

Haha that totally sucks! Sorry to hear about that.

Don't feel like a loser. A lot of people tell me not to start now, because I won't know how to do anything. The more classes you take, the more they'll give you to do. You're fine 🙂 Besides I'm a soph, and I don't have any yet ;]

I walked up to the biochem department chair and asked if there were any open positons open for a freshman. He offered me four.

I will make almost a dollar more than I do now, get to study when they don't need me for anything (getting paid to study! Yeah!) and will only be required to do 10 hours a week. (compared to my current minimum-wage 20 hour/week fast food job, this is heaven!)

Bonus points for the professor in charge of everything being an ex-med school teacher/adcom (?)

Best part is, the way it sounds, I might be able to do one of my own someday! The grad student I'm going to be working directly under actually started out as a freshman assistant.

I AM SO EXCITED TO START THIS JOB. CAN YOU TELL.

FTFY

I live in f****** Nebraska :laugh: Not too many gunners here. Just guns

UNL actually has a pretty cool undergrad research program, UCARE. It gives you your own research opportunity your sophmore/junior year. It's kinda constricting though...you have to finish up in 2 years. Not sure how effective it really is.
