A thread everyone can just remain in and idle in, and hit refresh every now and then to see what everyone else is saying. That would really liven things up a little. Threads like this very thread are a very powerful force in forums. Lets you know who's really paying attention to things.

Nice prediction ST.

Everybody rate this thread 5 stars! 😃

Anyway, back to report cards, I'm usually never nervous when I open them. Typically I get all A's or every once in a while a B thrown in. But this year, I'm pulling a hard B- in Government, a B+ in Chemistry, and a B+ in Pre-Calc. (They don't print the +'s or -'s.) I think I can manage to bring the latter two up to an A, but I'm pretty much screwed for Gov't. I guess I'll have to get an A on the 2nd 9-weeks and the mid-term, or there goes my 4.0.

[/Pineconn's version of a rant]

Never mind, I got all A's. 😃

Ha! I pity you fools in full-time education. How I look back on those years and am forever thankful that I can't remember them.

I have to work at 11 and shit it's cold!

The past few nights we've been in the lab doing airway management and last night a full four hours of it(fun!) and I thought we were all gonna kill each other with our laryngoscopes. One of the preceptors told my instructor that the three of us in a group working with him were going to be damn good paramedics. He's never had someone ask so many questions.

Woo! Can you say job offer when class is over?

great for you biggiy!

I don't worry about my grade reports anymore, unless I am REALLY unsure if I passed or failed.

My logic is: By the time the grades come in, it's too late to do anything about it. So just chill and see how you did. and if you bombed hardcore, well...try not to do it again the second time.

...of course...If I bomb a class this semester...I'm gonna be seriously screwed. Even though I'm of legal age here, I still live under my parent's roof, so I gotta bide by (most of) their rules. -_- Not very funny.

What really bugs me is that whe I do really well on somehting, I just get a breif "Great! keep it up!" but when I do badly I get a 3 hour lecture: "you got to do better because your life is important and you'll end up as a bum on the streets and..." Yes...I've heard it before... -_- Seriously, my mom seems afraid I'll become a beggar or somehting If I get a 60% on a test or something...

I'm doing that Monday morning. I have to drive down to campus for an 8am class.

I'll see your 4a.m. and raise you delivering a baby in the back of the truck(squad).

I got up at 1:45 P.M. today.

Beat that.

Actually, I hate sleeping in. I just view it as wasting the day. Perhaps I should actually use my alarm clock. 😛

I don't mind alarm clocks... as long as they do NOT go off <giggle>. 😊 They startle me when they go off and that's just not a nice way to start off a day... <blah>

Eh, waking up is an awful way to start the day. :sweat:

Today was my sister's birthday. Nothing much happened, save for me letting her use the "better" computer in the house all day. I cracked open my copy of the original Dungeon Keeper and played about half the single player campaign through. Man, such a good game...

"Keeper. Your dungeon is on a slant. Angry creatures cannot play marbles!"

Concert tickets are never cheap. $138 for two tickets to see Keith Urban. I'm taking my friend Angela...well friend for the moment anyways. We aren't even on the floor but we have a really nice view of the stage.

I woke up close to 10:30 but just wanted to lay in bed for another hour.

I hate alarms. I've woken up to them for years and the sound is the most annoying thing in the world to me.

I usually set mine to play music when it goes off. I agree, I hate the [size=+1]EHH! EHH! EHH![/size] sound sooo much.

Well, the Indians just beat the Red Sox. 'Bout time. Since I live in Ohio, I guess I have an obligation to root for the Indians, but I really couldn't care less. I'm a football guy, anyway (Steelers FTW).

Go Indians for the ALCS. Go Rockies for the WS!

Basically any sound that wakes me up I come to hate. The TV used to wake me up for a while and the sound of it turning on kind of annoys me. Same goes for a coffee grinder. My dad used that every morning and it always woke me up. As if the sound wasn't annoying enough as it is.

The obligation must not extend to football though because you root for the team in PA instead of either of the two in Ohio, lol. I just found that funny.

I am rooting for the Indians too. The Buffalo Bisons are their farm team and that's where I am originally from so it kind of made me an Indians fan by default. Glad to see they tied up the series at 1.

I picked up an old Nickelodeon alarm clock at a garage sale years ago. So every morning I wake up to:

"3" "2" "1" *Plays Taps* *boing* *boing* *boing* *cuckoo clock* *cuckoo clock* Nick-nick-nick-nick-nick-nick-nick-Nickelodeon!

OSU for the win!

Shit it's cold up here!

edit: I got my new stethoscope from Gall's the other day and inside was their huge it could double as a weapon catalog. They also sent me 500ft of fire tape.....I'm gonna have fun with someone's car later.

Well, both of my parents are from western PA, so I kind of have to be a Steelers fan. 😉 Neither of them really follow baseball either. Or basketball, or hockey, or soccer, or tennis... et cetera.

Speaking of alarm clocks. Who wants to get up at 4am?

8am class on campus but I gotta up early to feed the dogs, iron my uniform pants and shirt then beat rush hour traffic and play musical cars with everyone else trying to get a parking spot.

My plan is simple. Cut into the first space I find even if it pisses someone off.

Rockies win again, just one more and they're in the World Series! Now I just need the Indians to beat the Red Sox.

I'd rather get up at 1:15am to go to work at 2:30am. Except for the fact that I usually hate my job.

Last week I slept from 6am-730 am on tuesday and 4 am - 730 am on friday. The combination of midterms, philharmonic audition, and contest season in high school marching band is bad.

You know, I really like my DS, but the alarm is the most annoying sound ever.

I'm sleeping, and suddenly..."brr!brr!brr! brr!brr!brr! brr!brr!brr!" >_< oh, and if you don't tap the screen/buttons to make it go into snooze mode...the volume keps going up...and up...and..up..untill you get pised off enough to get up and press the snooze function...giving you another 6 minutes of peace before...
"brr!brr!brr! [SIZE="5"] brr!brr!brr! [/SIZE] [SIZE="7"]brr!brr!brr!"[/SIZE]

>_< but I have to use it, or I'll never get to school on time!

oh, but the worst wake up call I ever had was on a family vacation. we were at a hotel, and my mom set up her cell phone to wake us all up. Well...I'm sleeping peacefully (well..expect for the fact that I was sharing a bed with my bro [Innocent intentions, you perverts!], and he kicks me constantly...), when all of the sudden...

This cheery sounding song plays. a really creepy kind of cheery song.

>_< I hate and fear that ringtone to this day. Whenever I hear it...I freeze in terror. Maybe it's because of the fact that it's such a bad song, and it woke me up at 5 am...but I hate that freaking song.

Do you remember what song it was?

Also, apparently I would make an awesome PI, given how well I'm doing in Discworld Noir.

My alarm is the a ringtone from my cellphone that sound like it's from the Nutcracker (I think it is, too) and it is VERY loud. I usually only use it to wake up to get ready for work at 6am or to do some something I really need to do that early (like say get ready to go meet somebudy later that morning), but I digress.
