how's your studying going guys? are you freaking out? burned out?

this is our stress relief thread....or our group anxiety thread, whatever..... :laugh: 😀

for those of you that have no idea what the mcat random threads are about, check out molly's explanation:

MollyMalone said:
It's basically a restaurant. That serves breaststicks. And lots of cute fruit and veggies. And is patronized by a HO. And Tucker Carlson. Vin Diesel, too. Lots of race car drivers eat here, as well. We're very well respected by the Amish... one girl in particular is here almost all the time.

The food is great if you're low on iron. It's not on the menu, but you can ask about the special secret garlic cure home recipe. One of the hostesses often makes weather predictions, but she's not always around. I think she has another job with the government. Or a government. Something like that. One of the other hostesses says "Bitch, please," a lot, but she's joking... don't take it personally.

Forget anything you've heard about the girl who died here from arsenic poisoning. That was a long time ago, and she's still alive, anyway... just busy so she doesn't come in as much. Besides, a little arsenic adds a lot of flavor to just about any dish.

Pretty flowers by the entrance, hey? Lilis, they are. Beautiful. And the music is totally hopping... we have our very own DJ. Looks a little like Brad Pitt.

I guess that's pretty much all you need to know. I'm usually in the corner booth over there drinking a nice glass of wine. You're welcome to join me, anytime. We're open 24/7.

I CANNOT concentrate on the micro I need to cover.

The last chapter is all antibiotics and antiseptic techniques and I know this stuff backwards and forwards because I'm actually interested. But the rest of the stuff on the final :barf: I just can't concentrate 😡

Also I just wasted 1/2 an hour looking at Step 1 review books :laugh:
Man that's so sad!

Had a busy day today - gave all three dogs baths, majorly cleaned the bird cage (like took the bird out and scrubbed it) and caught up on tons of laundry.

*phew* I'm exhausted!!

And have to call the vet to make appointments for all three dogs (LOL, yes this is why they needed to be all clean and shiny, hehe). They all need their shots, I think the 13 year old really does have Cushings and we need to get going on treating that (she had a blood panel a few months that was really suspicious) and I think the 4 year old is hypothyroid so he needs to get tested for that and most likely put on medication. Fun .... can't wait to find out what all this will cost!

Oooooohhhhhhh, I just found a veterinarian who does house calls! 😀 That would be MUCH nicer than having several different appointments on several different days (because there is NO way I'm dragging two kids and three dogs to the vet's office by myself!) I could get all their stuff done at once!

Are you going to scrub his bird?


OMG - I need to stop. Studying Micro makes me essentially incoherent.

If you put your kids in the cage maybe he will take care of them too! 😉

Okay this is just too insanely funny not to share... and it combines two of my favorite things: Scrubs and Charlie Brown Christmas.

You MUST watch.

to all:

I love you

I miss you

I'd much rather be spending time with you than doing these %&*$%^@$#& organic practice tests over again

beary- congrats on 8K. not officially a SDN milestone, so no song 🙁

Ana- YOU ARE A FREAK. "Scrubbed your bird"? WTF? Have you been having "interesting" dreams again?

Everyone- :luck: on exams

Mine are done as of 7:30pm CST tomorrow, so I will be able to resume post-whoring then. 👍

Guys! I'm scared :scared: A thread about the video I posted showed up in the lounge right after I posted it here... it's like SDN can read my mind or something! 😱

Okay - I really need to lay off the crack...

And no, JLW, no more "interesting" dreams... here's hoping for tonight though 😉

So I have 7 hours until my Optics final.

What is the optimum study to sleep ratio for the remaining time?
Click to expand...
good question.

organic starts at 10, which means I need to leave the house by 9:15. so I'm getting up at 7:15, but you'll note it's almost 1am.

guess we'll find out later...

No more English professor's dirty looks!

Good luck to those of you taking real finals tomorrow, not that you science rawkstars need luck (or sleep 😉)!
