In AP Biology, we’re doing genetics, and I must say that the unit is a pleasant surprise. In regular biology, I struggled with genetics (lol, freshman me), but I find dihybrid crosses and pedigree charts fascinating! Doing problems about them is like solving a mystery.
@greeneggsandsam9 Ever heard of people shooting up horse tranquilizer? That’s apparently a thing at my school.
Homework? What is that? (has a week off from school because of Mardi Gras)
AHHH LUCKY I LOVE GENETICS @photogeek8 (i’d love to work as a genetic engineer in the future!!)
ALSO YES BRONCOS YEET YES
i’m so sad i can’t talk about my fire puns because no one i know fully watched the game HAHAH
I know that my school has a drug problem, but my friend group is full of people who would never do drugs (as in we’re literally known for being “good girls”), and the only people I’m close to are them and my guard team (also full of people who would never) I had just never known who the dealers were and who the people who did it were. I’m pretty sheltered, to be honest. (& I’m pretty sure people don’t just do weed, but again, I’m really sheltered.)
@desideratum I’ll be honest. My attention span was pretty terrible during the Superbowl. Did Ted drop passes a-Ginn?
@QueenOfBohemia I’M CRYING YOU’RE GREAT DID YOU MILLER-N A LOT DURING YOUR VIEWING EXPERIENCE
@desideratum Yes. Whoever was Manning the cameras seemed like he was waiting on getting a shot of Newton falling on the sidelines.
yep, he was manning the CAMeras trying to get a NEW TON of action @QueenOfBohemia
@desideratum Man, being Coop-ed up in my house makes me come up with puns as terrible as the Panthers’ Superbowl defense.
@QueenOfBohemia Love the puns, but I wouldn’t say the Panthers’ defense was bad. Their offense drastically under-performed, but their defense managed to hold the Broncos to a field goal many, many times (even after Norwood’s amazing punt return). The Broncos defense was definitely better, but the Panthers weren’t too shabby at all.
@foliontai Agreed, the Panthers defense was as good as it has been all season! It was mainly the CarO-LINE-a that collapsed. (if that made sense :’))
Cam Newton did, at times, though, make throws that showed his inability to react to pressure/his youth. It was a good game, if a bit sloppy.
@QueenOfBohemia what can you do? Sometimes SUPER words just BOWL you over.
@foliontai Okay. They weren’t that bad. But can the Panthers defense beat the 95’-- never mind.
@desideratum Haha true. Oher maybe I just need to get out more.
Anyone have solutions to a major procrastination problem? I’ve tried everything, but I’m still having trouble getting my work done. It’s like I know I need to do these assignments, but I always wait to the last minute. I’ve done this my entire academic career, but lately, it’s been getting worse. Now it’s like I have a complete disregard to the deadlines and no longer care about missing them. I haven’t had any trouble with my grades just yet, but I’m not sure what to do anymore. I don’t want this to get out of hand.
Any tips, guys?
look through college confidential ivy league threads and become stressed about your grades and gpa lol. works for me
@SockandBoots Try thinking about your goals and how you need to achieve them, as you list out the steps see how grades fit into your plan.
@QueenOfBohemia I read that and immediately thought of the show Dexter! Horse tranquilizer. I’ve never heard of that
So I am having a bit of a dilemma. I want to do an internship over the summer but the problem is, I was planning on taking art as I needed it for UC Berkeley. As a result, I wouldn’t have time for an internship. However, if I do land an internship, I significantly increase my chances for colleges. I may have to take art online so that would be interesting.
I think I’ve accepted that it’s a near 0 chance that I’ll get into my dream school. I may apply next year, but I don’t think I’ll be devastated if I don’t get accepted.
Hey my dream school is Stanford and I’ve already kind of accepted my fate haha.
Yup… same… no idea what I’m doing with my life…
Also, I hate AP Lang…
