<p>i kinda agree with east…i mean sometimes i dont even understand that “this is worse/better” phrases any more. i think sometimes they go too specific and i dont even have any clue about who the heck they are. i mean im tied up with other stuff right now and hardly have a time to spend watching TV. so i cant catch up with all the latest events or important figures. i still watch sometimes but…you know, so that i can still convey the conversation on “hey did you watch the last episode of family guy last night” with my friends. thats pretty much the only reason for me to continue to watch that show lol</p>
<p>interesting news especially for pre-med folks here. it’s reported today that two new genes that may cause parkinson disease have been found in japan. one is Park16 and the other one is BST1. parkinson disease is very popular among the elderly, so this can be used to elucidate the causes of parkinson disease and prevent from or help to take the first steps to cope with the parkinson disease. i personally know someone with it so im happy. :-)</p>
<p>Yay genetics! That’s what I want to do (as of right now). Geneticist ftw. Don’t worry about that whole ‘im a communications major’ thing. lol. (I just don’t feel like taking calculus/physics by being a Bio major/my grades aren’t good enough for transfer to Bio.)</p>
<p>I can always switch if I feel like it, but I think I’m just gonna minor in it.</p>
<p>No email as of 11:06am EST…nor is the self-service fixed. Off to the library I go to finish that Psych paper that I said ‘nah’ on last night, followed by chem lab reports and Behavior quizzes.</p>
<p>Awesome, water. I think with genetics you can do a lot of stuff. It was very interesting fr me when I took Anatomy. It’s interesting to see how hair color and eye color work. Maybe you can pursue after undergrad. I heard many med students come from non pre-med majors.</p>
<p>Well I am pretty angry right now at my friend. I just had a psychology test but I couldn’t really make it to class because my car got a flat tire on the road. I called (like more than 10 mins prior to the class) my friend who’s in class to tell the teacher that I am going to be late because of that. And she said okay. So I figured she would. Later I called my roommate and he took me to school. Then I got to the classroom about 20 mins late and the teacher told me she didn’t hear anything about my car prob. Surely I couldn’t accuse my friend because she was taking the test, but I ended up not being able to finish the test. I hate it when people say “oh I will do it for you” and then they never do it. I’d rather hear “sorry, I can’t do it”.
I’m very upset and depressed (because of the fact that I couldn’t finish my test) T_T<br>
I really can’t afford to get any B…</p>
<p>I guess it also doesn’t help that I had to register for next semester’s classes today, and I couldn’t get any of the courses that I actually wanted to take :/. That and the thought that I might not even be here next semester. Meh…</p>
<p>Congrats, Water. I told you you’d have no problem getting accepted again. I already know what your gpa is, but if you don’t mind, can you post the rest of your stats please? BTW, how did you find out?</p>
<p>And I’m glad you all agree with me on the Family guy stuff :)</p>
