Me too

[Kipper is King]

I am now 2000 words away from being done writing university essays! My last paper is due Tuesday at 4:30 when the office closes.

Tuesday at 4:00, I will think about starting it!

[kyuusei]

I have four lab reports (all modern physics), which are supposed to sound somewhat like a scientific journal, due in a week...ish.

I haven't started ANY of them and finals are also next week (Tuesday and Wednesday) the week after (Tuesday).

!@#$.

And I was so happy to be so close to being done differential equations til I remembered I have to take a second part at UBC. FUUU.

[NSFL]

Crap man. That's some concentrated work.

Yeah but I'll be glad to be out of my school, UBC just needs to ACCEPT ME ALREADY.

Ahem.

[wooohooo]

What are you applying for?

I have 2 on monday I'm about ready to write. My one on wednesday I think I'm going to fail hard... arghhhhh way too much to read and memorize.

[Flamesguy_SJ]

I don't even know what I would do if I had finals too this term. So glad that I lucked out. Have to say though, five 10+ page papers and three audio/video assignments have been brutal. I think I'd gladly exchange a few of the papers I still have left for a 3-hour exam, considering I've pulled 3 all-nighters in the past week to get stuff done.

[NSFL]

You know what the really sad thing is about this thread. If we'd only start a bit earlier. We wouldn't be here. But we all do. Hahaha.

2nd or 3rd year (I've done 2nd year, except what 2-4 courses my school doesn't actually OFFER) in Physics & Astronomy.

Off to pull my first of like four all nighters now. =P

Paper season's already over for me, but I've got finals right around the corner(actually already had one in a night class a couple weeks back). This is why I hate spread out finals(I've got two left, each one week apart). I've done nothing but gotten er done since last day of classes almost a couple weeks back, I'm totally in summer mode. Pretty hard to hit the books now. I'm sure it'll be even harder next week for my last one.

Condensed finals suck, but at least you stay in game mode.

Quiet down with your logic! Besides nothing beats the 4am red bull shakes.

Maybe its because I'm not a coffee drinker, but I can't handle Red Bull type stuff when doing homework, it gets me so wired I can't even focus or sit still. But give me a 2L of Orange Crush and a large bag of BBQ corn chips, and by 2am I'll have you a masterpiece.

Yeah Red Bull is my Hail Mary, when Im too tired to keep going and need a desperation play to keep going. Thats when I crack out the Red Bull, hate the stuff but it works.

I've never actually had red bull. I'm afraid of the effects. I figure more than a cup of coffee has me on edge and headachey, a red bull will probably annihilate me.

I'm a bigger fan of AMP, personally. My strategy is a cup of coffee or two during the day, can of AMP in the late evening (say from 10pm-1am), and then another can of AMP gradually over the night/into the morning -- I usually just sip on it when I start feeling drowsy.

Oh, and Zesty Doritos. Those are essential to any schoolwork getting done.


EDIT: This is my 30th post in this thread. Awesome.

[Sainters7]

So I sat down on the comp around 11:30am to get started on some studyin. Here we are at 4pm, I'm still sitting here, and I've done nothing. Absolutely nothing. Haha thank sweet baby Jesus for this thread, at least I know I'm not alone.

Whoa! WTF? How am I number one in posts in this thread? It's probably because I've been in school for 6 years and have been in this thread for every single paper that I ever had to write during that 6 years.
