It's been a while
Here is a quick update as to why I have not blogged. I just realized that six out of my eight classes are science classes. Translation; homework forever. I have spent an average if five hours daily on home work and you know what that is not enough. It takes me five hrs to do the minimum to get by. I don’t fully understand the reading assignments, class helps a little bit, but I’ll have to reread everything for the midterms. All the lectures for the science classes touch the same topics. Hopefully the repetition will help me learn everything well.
On top of all the homework I caught a cold from one of my roommates. It is funny that I was just learning all about immunology. In one of my labs we just finished looking at all the different white blood cell types. It was incredible to actually look at the white blood cells. It was like looking at another galaxy; thousands of red blood cells and every once in awhile a white blood cell, each looks different from the next. In that same lab we got to test our own blood for anemia. One of my tests turned out positive, and the other negative, so there is a 50% chance that I am anemic, there is also a 50% chance that I am not anemic. I don’t know where I got the strength to prick my own finger but I did it.
That is all for today, I need my rest so I can fight this cold.

A good general rule of thumb is to allow two hours of study for every hour in class. If you're in class fifteen hours a week, plan another thirty hours for study. Yep, that's about five hours a day, six days a week. It varies depending on the class--some are easier, some more time consuming. Lab classes are typically more time consuming, but so are essay heavy classes. For graduate classes, I try to schedule about four hours of study for every hour of class, and that increases the closer we get to paper due dates.
Yeah, I am still trying to work on that procrastination thing so I still write my papers the night before they are due. I know I should not but with so much studing going on its hard to remember deadlines and schedule things in advaced, but that's life.
