I must say, after finally getting accepted into dental school, I've never felt lazier in my life. The days go by, my books just sit and collect dust, I only attend one class per week - you get the picture. Actually, I spend the bulk of my day thumbing through pages of furniture catalogs looking at stuff for my future apartment in Gainesville ! Then, while driving to school for my weekly ceramics class, I notice BestBuy......OoOoh, the TV's, DVD players, gaming systems. Now that I'm finally gonna have a place for myself, I can't seem to stop fantasizing about hooking it up with surround sound and a 36 inch flat screen Sony Wega. Maybe I 'm crazy, but this is what happens when you're accepted to dental school.

Is anyone else experiencing such weird symptoms ? 😕 😕 😕
 
Damian I totally hear ya!!!
I'm having the SAME problem!!! Can't stop daydreaming about my future place. 😀 😀 😀
I better do something about it soon, can't keep ignoring my books like that. 🙁 🙁

Anyways...one thing is for sure...we're going to have lots of fun in Gainesville. 😎

:clap: :clap: :clap:
 
U bet we're gonna have fun, but after reading through the curriculum several times, I begin to sweat & twitch. For some strange reason, I feel as if I'm gonna be partying in the dreaded blue room (dental student study place) ! It's STILL all gravy as long as we've got the funnel and keg near by the biochem books ! Life in a small town will be fun indeed !

Gators Rule !!
😛 :clap: 😛 :clap:
 
Yo Damian...STOP LOOKING AT THAT CURRICULUM!!! At least until orientation. Cause I know how you start stressing out and stuff, just chill and keep on dreaming of your new CRIB. 😀 😀 😀
 
I'm dreaming about my beefed up Hummer H2 with the bullet proof side panels and windows and my beefed up surround sound system with DVD player and wireless audio system that is attached to wireless digital connections of all the classrooms at PENN. I'm gonna live in that thing and go to classes in that thing, (if i get out I might die).

bam bam!!

lmao..... Thats's not a bad idea !! But I doubt my 87 Cougar (190,000 kilomiles = almost a quarter billion miles) will support such high tech gadgets !! In fact, whenever I'm hitting over 45, I feel parts of my car fly off - you know, the exhaust, antenna, side mirrors, etc.) !
 
I'm with you, guys. I can't believe that I actually have to go to class this semester.

To make matters worse, I'm taking my second half of the Physics lecture. I was so not into it, that I called my school to see if I could waive it. They wouldn't let me, but I was told that all I have to do is pass. Does anybody know how to actually go about getting a "D-"? If so, let me know. I'd love to learn how!
 
haha... I remember the time we were leaving the parking lot outside of chemistry class, and as we started to drive, you started to honk your horn at my car, and your freakin' horn popped out of your steering wheel and hit you in the face! (After 14 years of storing elastic potential energy, I guess the spring in your horn finally decided it was time to convert that potential into kinetic energy.... (so if we solve for 'v' in 1/2mv^2, I guess we can know at what velocity your horn hit you)....

anyways... The wendy's where the blue room is at in the dental school closes at 3am... I can see you now half way through your first semester in dental school ordering your infamous junior bacon cheeseburger + large chili at 2:30 in the morning, with you tired as hell, your eyes all red and hair messed up saying, "Why me!!!!"

But, you're gonna learn to love the blue room. As depressing as it looks, a 24hr study place outside your home is invaluable. Since you, Damian, are gonna be number one in your class, students that understand the process of modeling will mimic every action you do in order to strive to your level of excellence. As time progresses, you will have a line of people you don't even talk to, follow you as you take your overly familiar walk from the blue room at 2:30am to the Wendy's downstairs.

So, grasshopper, if you awake the giant within, you shall be unstoppable. All those that hinder your path toward success will be crused like little bug.

That all I have say.

P.S. Forget PENN, We have wireless internet too! Also, if it wasn't for Benjamin Franklin, the electron could of had the proper positive charge associated with it, instead of the incorrect negative charge. Now, for the rest of history, all new physics students need to learn that current is caused by the movement of electrons, but current is defined as the movement of protons. Bottom line: Go Gators.
 
I'm thinking of way to finance my 4 yrs nonstop spending-not working.....And thinking about how to go to school in Philly. I'm not the kind of person who always drives in the morning. I usually sleep until I get dropped off at school or at the starbucks near ucsf. So, it's hard to imagine myself driving to Temple. Don't figure out how yet. And i understand that I'll get first an apartment in Temple, I'm a girl so I don't care about furniture, or surround sound system. I only worry about my flowers and plants at home much more, and have to give up my gardening habit while I'm in school. I won't have enough time to do gardening in dental school. But it just seems so hard not to have flowers next year.
I noticed that the Temple itself has no landscape. I mean, not even a single pot of flower. It was probably all dead when I visited the school

I don't even want to look at books when I think of that.
And how about the bullet proof car?

LOL! I got kicked out everytime i went to the blueroom to study. Now, i can finally study there without worryin about getting kicked out . hehe..

I don't think i felt this lazy in my entire college life. My wakeup time is 11:30 am EVERY DAy even when i have 8:30 class!.
 
hehe..I've heard horror stories about that blue room. You can hear a pin drop. Also, my friend almost got kicked out for making too much noise while flipping the pages of her book. 🙁

I must say...when I saw that room, it did have that depressing gloomy look/feel to it. Damian, I think we've been spoiled by FIU's library. :laugh: :laugh:
 
I've been lazy too ever since my acceptance, I just don't feel like doing work but some dental schools require that you send the final transcript.
