apache Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 haha... so true, the rat race never ends, forget what everyone says about pass/fail... med school goes turns into a social networking/volunteering/research rat race instead of a grade based one. although one improvement is that you get a totally unnecessary loc to have fun with, seriously . The novelty wears off in 6 months. Back to bottom of the totem pole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leap87 Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Damn you data!!!! I wonder why the heck you exist sometimes! Day 3 of no sleep. Day 3 of pure calculations. All I've been doing is running calculations that are supposed to be due tomorrow. Ugh.... Made a total fool out of myself in front of another prof because of one of my supervisors. LOL. But it's all good. The prof loves me to death for some reason. lol. And I love startling people. I'm sitting there, going through my data, hoping it would go away, and the boy walks into the room, gets all confused, says hi, then wants to sit at the same table as me but sees a friend of mine there, so he turns around and sits at another table facing us. LOL. And then obviously, I made it uncomfortable by just pounding through my data - he couldn't concentrate during his meeting and it was hilarious (not that the meeting was one of those very important ones). LOL. It's great - the effect I have on some men. lmao. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Let me add to all the misery here today. I had the hardest exam of my life yesterday. I think UofT profs are truly specialized in creating tests that are totally useless and redundant and which are incapable of distinguishing between people that study and people that don't. Wwwwwwwwwhhhyyyyyyyyyyyyy did I come hereeeeeeeee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnb88 Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Lol... seems like we have a theme going here! *e-hugs to everyone!* To add to it.... I'm feeling completely overwhelmed right now. There is literally so much going on I don't even know what to do. Between the courses I'm (attempting) to take/get through, training for provincials in exactly 17 days (EEEKKK!!!!), being exceedingly nervous about said competition (losing my double loop is not helping with said nerves), starting a new job, getting ready to start prepping a poster for a conference coming up (which isn't currently adding to stress, but will very, very soon), applying for nursing programs and trying to find scholarships/bursaries/free money/winning the lottery (to help the fact that I'm moving out next year come hell or high water), things at home turning from worse to f'ing terrible, and keeping up with other ECs like my volunteering, coaching, partnering, and research. Sometimes I feel like this: would be just as effective as what I'm doing now! (sorry- couldn't find a GOOD short version of that. It literally does it for 10 mins straight! lol) I guess I do this to myself though and I'm really enjoying everything (minus the stress at home and the skating frustration at my own lack of ability right now). One thing's for sure- I won't be bored for awhile! Let's change the tone of the tread- positive thinking attracts more positive thinking and therefore postitive things (or at least that's what I tell myself when things seem to just be sucky). I've won 2 free "coffees" from Timmy's so far! Going to cash in my "Coffee" for an apple cider tomorrow probably:) Also, it's far in the future, but I'm moving out at the end of July- SO exciting!!!

leap87 Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Barely got up today.... BARELY!!!! Like I crawled out of the bed at 8:30am. God, please help me next week. This is the last thing I'll ask of you. LAST thing. Ugh... I can't even open my eyes... how attractive is that?!?!!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatonekid Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 So much negativity here! I was having a "sunshine and rainbows" day today, but then my ride to Queen's this weekend said that they had to do something else. I think I'll just rent a car though.

Cerena Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 I plan on standing up to my teacher today in front of the class to ask for our exam to be pushed back. Nervous, but I have a lot of gutts so I'll just do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cass Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Speaking of exams, someone stole an exam paper from my exam room today and all I hear was the prof yelling "HEY YOU!" and she starts running after him in her heels...talk about a start to an exam. Not sure if the guy was caught though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarathonRunner Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Oh my goodness! Thanks just horrible. I hope you heal quickly and feel better soon. Take care of yourself. I've only ever had one of either a concussion or a fracture to deal with at once, and they are plenty enough on their own, so I can't imagine what you are going through.

leap87 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Okay that's it for tonight. I'm off home.... My supervisor "suggested" I get some sleep because I'll work "better" tomorrow. lol. But he did manage to call me MULTIPLE times while in the lab to discuss presentation questions before I even started the presentation.... oh what a guy! lol. I need to send him a "thank you" card or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatonekid Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Supervisor just emailed me and asked me to finish off a powerpoint presentation he's working on. I open up the file and he's only done 3 slides (out of 40!). He's had like 3 weeks to work on it and I now only have until tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leon Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 My household's feeling pretty anti-science right now. My younger sis has had INTENSE stomachaches, diarrhoea and bloating. She was first diagnosed with lactose intolerance 3 yrs ago but not she has these symptoms every f****** day and sometimes just collapses on the floor unable to move. And all she's eating right now is veggies and rice and fruit juices. Literally. After extensive tests the docs said she's got "irritable bowel syndrome" which pretty much has no cause and cure. I don't know WTF to think, say or do right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish he's given me more time! Anyway, I've done about half of it already. Break time. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
