Fun Stuff > CHATTER

I just started this semester, and so far I am having an alright time.
I just get irritated with all the kids going to other schools (or even mine) that are always partying and drinking and oh my god blah blah, WHERE DO YOU FIND THE TIME PEOPLE? When I am not studying or actually in class, I am sleeping like the dead because this shit is exhausting.

I agree that a balance is needed. All work and no play make Jack a dull boy, as they say. It is, however, possible to get your work done and still have some time left over. You just have to get into the swing of things a bit. I think it's a lot like working in a kitchen. Sure, you've got to do so many things at one time, but if you're adept at it, you actually look like you're breezing through and barely doing anything at all, whereas if you don't know what you're doing, you're going to be doing stuff constantly, and still be in the weeds. The only difference between the two tends to be experience. The more time you spend doing that stuff, the better you'll be at knowing when to start things, how to knock it out quickly, etc. So, keep at it and you'll find yourself in a great rhythm that'll allow you to have what's known as "free time," plus you won't fail out, which is important.

I'm in my last year of my B.sc. I'm very excited, but I'm terrified about grad school. I get to spend the next month working on my NSERC application and trying to find a grad school and a supervisor. My roommates are prepared to deal with a very cranky Katharine.
Also, I just spent almost 5 hours T.A.ing an Organic I lab, where they only had to do 3 distillations (2 simple, 1 fractional). If this trend continues, some students are going to get blinded by science. Science is represented by acid.

I mean, if you want to, I guess, but don't worry, it'll get better.
