What is it about? Why does it need so many pages?

Major, too, brah.

Also, did you get a choice to either write a thesis or take a test? They do that for certain majors, like comm.

I just found out that if you click on a thread icon to the left of each board it filters to all threads with that icon... MY MIND IS BLOWN.

In other news just got a new Vaio and its better than my desktop. So glad I didn't sell out to Steve Jobs in the end. Tis a thing of beauty.

Since I have nothing on my mind I will change the word mind to mime for a moment.

I took from their sconces two flambeaux, and giving one to Fortunato bowed him through several suites of rooms to the archway that led into the vaults. I passed down a long and winding staircase, requesting him to be cautious as he followed. We came at length to the foot of the descent, and stood together on the damp ground of the catacombs of the Gaming World.

I found out today that I have been taking a skin drug for 3 years that should not be taken long term and it can lead to enlarged lymphatic system and lymphoma as a side effect. Been really hoping that what I am experiencing is just a recurrence of mononucleosis but the more I read into things the more it looks like it might be cancer. Finally get to see a blood specialist on Wednesday so I would like you to sorta donate me some luck on Wednesday thanks in advance.

oh god, that's awful man. How did you keep getting the prescription refilled without someone(doc or pharmacist) catching that "little" detail? Try not to lose your shit while waiting for wednesday, I can't imagine how nerve wracking that must be.

The drug is called Protopic, I used it to stop my face from flaring up with atopic (allergic) dermatitis and this is the page where I read about the side effects last night http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/medicines/100004717.html

I don't know how they allowed me to be prescribed the drug for so long. I was initially prescribed it after suffering from mono and that should never have happened if my doctor had put 2 + 2 together about my history with mono and the dangers of using that drug with a poor immune system.

I have to take a list of current and past medications on Wednesday and I am pretty sure when they see that on it the alarm bells will start ringing.

This is just typical of my life anyway. Finally pulled myself into a 2:1 on my degree, got myself a nice girl who I genuinely want to keep this time and it would be so typical if I got this just before my final year.

Erp sorry that was a question to DJ soup. As for the thesis thing, if they allow you to choose between writing a thesis or taking a test, writing a thesis is usually the best option because lots of people say that they don't actually learn anything in their Ph. D program. You're basically the professor's bitch, doing research or whatever until it's over, so taking a test on things you don't know is almost guaranteed to flunk you.

maybe they didn't want to ruin his summer if he was away on a trip or something, or it just didn't feel right to say it until he was back. i can understand that, something similar happened to me although not as high-impact a relative as a brother. that's a shame about what happened.

This pretty much. My mom didn't want me to be distracted from my finals. but it still bothers me. I want to know this kind of shit. :/ I like to be up to date. It also kind of stunts the emotional impact. IDK if that is a good or a bad thing because while I'm relieved of the worst of the event, when I heard it at first I was just like 'oh' and shrugged... because no one seems worried at all about it (because it had become old news) so it seemed like maybe I shouldn't be too concerned... at the same time, I understand the consequences, and they kind of stress me out. Gives me a pain in the pit of my stomach kind of feeling.

In his letter though he mentions that he's done with drugs and alcohol. Also says he eats better in prison. I guess this will keep him from overdosing and ending up in a coma. So yeah silver lining. I just really fucking hope he doesn't actually get 5 god damned years.

I had a dream police had surrounded this Best Buy-type place I was in and I was fending them off with a t-shirt cannon (it was kind of like Terminator 2)
