I'm not dead yet.
Well, the last post was some time ago. I'm still alive (don't know how though). Sorry for the delay. Couldn't help it though. Got things to do coming out of my behind one right after another. By the way, I HATE LAB METHODS!! Everytime I have something due in that class, I end up having ZERO hour of sleep the night before. So, why don't I do the lab reports earlier you ask? Well, I would if I could, but I can't, so I don't. Why? Well, if the lab report was due on Friday, and you had a midterm on the Thursday and Wednesday right before it, and you haven't study for them yet, as well as the necessity of preparing for group work so I don't get killed by my partner on the Sunday before it, it's kind of difficult to find time to construct the stupid lab report. Oh, and there was also the stupid term paper for that bloody course (ended up to be 35 pages long) the prior Friday. (That term paper also killed my sleep).
I hate that course also because of the bloody midterm. I thought I was prepared for it by studying previous year's midterm, but apparently I wasn't. I could do any possible calculations they throw at me, as well as some chemicals and what they are used for. But what did the midterm consisted of? Of course. Memorization of what each bloody chemical does and why you add them OF THE ONES I DON'T KNOW! Big long calculation questions ended up being out of 1 whole bloody marks. HOW?? And the amount of detail you needed for the explaination... GRRRR!!!
Well, so far, I'm getting a 91% in the lab report, a 72% in the quiz, and less than 50% on the midterm. Am I doing well? I can always count on this course to put me into shock. Why am I taking Lab Methods 2 next semester?
The upcoming weeks consists of presentation for Transmission Genetics on this Friday, one term paper for Population Genetics due the Monday after, one paper for Transmission Genetics as well as lab report for Lab Methods on a week Friday, lab report for Lab Methods two weeks (Wednesday), and a 20 pages essay on Ethics 2 weeks Friday. Oh, I also have the weekly Ethics reading of approximately 50 pages to do. Oooowwwwwww!!!!
I guess the $1905 bursary would help ease the pain slightly.
