Let's be honest. Most of us in this forum are procrastinating away from some type of school work.

I'm avoiding my molecular genetics lab report.

What about the rest of you?
 
LOL, this is a good thread, actually I am procrastinating on revising an essay on Boston Scientific.
 
Biophysical Chemistry problem set, and the Duke secondary.
 
I'm only taking 4 classes, but good God do I hate all of them. I'm stalling on chemistry homework. It's like quantum number electron stuff, which I suppose I should know, this being my second chem class that's covered this stuff, but my word...I do hope mindless calculations aren't a part of med school.
 
suicide

j/k

studying for finals tomorrow*.

* We have once class at a time here, so finals come more often than Aunt Flo.
 
I'm not in school, so all of my current procrastination is directed at secondaries. Specifically Vandy, even though I already have the interview.

Haha graduated in May, I'm procrastinating on doing much of anything after I get home.
 
I smell braggart. Funny, they smell similar.

:laugh: Good lord do I hate those people.

Duke secondary, why is it taking me this long?

Almost as bad as unprompted public statistic sharing (I'm trying to decide it it's worth than indecent exposure).
 
Woah, that totally came off wrong guys. I'm not even close to a gunner. I just meant to say that even though I have to do the secondary to schedule my interview, I'm still procrastinating i.e., it's that bad.

Yikes!
 
I am procrastinating on my secondaries with my girlfriend and boy ain't it soooo nice!😀

And by that you mean getting to second base with your girlfriend? 😛

amen to that... I hate electron quantum number and crap... NO on can really wrap their mind around that weird a$$ stuff.
 
I am supposed to be studying for my Abnormal Psychology test.

🙁 - This smiley is Dysthymic.

:scared: - This smiley suffers from Panic disorder with Agoraphobia, and is having a panic attack since I took him away from his home (the Smiley box).

😱 - This smiley just saved a bunch of money on his car insurance through Geico...


Yeah, I'll stop now.

I loved the class but hated the exams.

This is my first exam, so we shall see. The profesor claims her exams are extremely detail oriented, and that an A is rare... but most professors say similar things. Never-the-less, I am studying everything very closely. The class is pretty interesting, and I can't wait till we get into some of the more extreme disorders (Schizophrenia, etc...).
 
Physics midterm tomorrow. Yay!

My exams were more focused on questions like "If patient X is showing signs of 1, 2, and 3, what disorder does patient X most likely have?" Not really my cup of tea, but I managed some how. What made the class very interesting for me was the video examples (some very funny ones too) of the disorders we talked about in class. Good times.

Ahh, she said we are going to have detailed case studies, but I don't think we get funny videos. 😡

My intro bio teacher said "I garuntee you an A if you study 40 hours a week" :laugh:

Speaking of difficult psych classes...I'm taking Learning and Memory, lots of conditioning and stuff...this crap can definitely be as hard as bio. It's taking more time per week than my molecular bio class.

That class may help your ability to study and take in information. In my Psychology of Thought class we talk about propositional networks and schemata and how it all ties into how well we commit information (and retrieve) from long term memory.
 
ochem. hate it. hate hate hate it. with a undying passion.
have a quiz tomorrow that's going to kick my booty.

hate.

yeap, me too. let's me know there are other people with just as screwed up of a sleep schedule as i have. makes me feel not so.....alone.
 
1) submitting a manuscript i just finished
2) studying for biochem test next monday
3) secondaries
4) more secondaries

SDN pwns me.
 
studying for my first exam in the Honors Seminar on 1920s Lit that I'm taking this semester... Fun class, not so fun to study for the night before. The Wasteland is awesome, but definitely tough...

I think I took a similar class, it was called Social Cognition. Psych majors, holla
 
Still more chemistry. Homework's due Friday, test next Wednesday, not feeling it. Also got to read some stories to discuss them tomorrow. Haven't looked at them. Haha...I need to be a senior. Been feeling senioritis since second semester sophomore year.
 
1) Molecular Genetics lab report (not the same one I was procrastinating on last time, this is the one for next week...it never ends 🙁 )

2) Lab report for physiology.

3) Making my study outlines for Molecular Genetics.

4) Research for a presentation.


I know, my life is exciting. :laugh:
 
work...i hate consulting. but i hate being put on hold by med schools pre-interview more..
 
Work - I can only stare at autoCAD screens and climb into creepy basements to find fire supression equipment so much before I snap.
 
1. Work - have to work through 20 Newonian force problems so I can help the girl I tutor when she gets stuck on the second step of all of them tomorrow.

2. Complete PC Database homework (2 chapters worth of relationships and queries in Access with each query or change copied into word to show that we did it) due on Monday that I haven't even started yet 🙁

3. Comp Sci I homework (5 small problems and then a program) due Monday.

4. Diff eq studying/problems that I haven't looked at in a week.

I have an excuse tho - been sick all week with an intolerable sinus infection that I don't have money to go get meds for (I get regular toothaches from these on top of it so major pain going on as well). Bah - all I want to do is sleep!

Have you tried getting the student insurance at your school? I know money is tight, but it's worth it to feel safe. 😍

I'm suprised that noone has said Biochemistry yet (that's what I'm procrastinating. It's a lot more confusing than OChem.
 
On problem 11 of 20 for chemistry, which is due by noon...today. Listening to the radio to keep me company.
