However, coming to Buffistas and phrasing a question in the posting box, reading it, and then picking out the identifying words for a google search--that's answered more questions for me than it hasn't.

The power of the hivemind.

ita, I hope your today will improve.

I made it to school. Now I'm waiting for my tutoring student and cramming for my exam that's at 9:30. It's gonna be a long day.

vw, in what subject is the exam? Either way, good luck with it.

Behavioral Neuroscience.

I didn't know how to study for it, because it's a make-up exam and will be all essay, since the prof doesn't give the same exam for make-ups (to keep cheating to a minimum). So, it should be interesting.

OMG y'all I just got home from watching Walk the Line and my accent has regressed like WOAH. so wrong.

Who said this? Because as Steph can attest, I totally fell back into Tennessee drawl when I watched this movie, especially 'cause it's full of tennessee accents.

She did, and it's hella cute when she slips back into a drawl.

it should be interesting

Not the first word I would choose to describe an exam, but it's still OK.

The universities I know in Israel have a date for a make-up exam for each class, a "second chance", in case you had to be absent on the original date due to whatever reason. I guess there's nothing like this in your school, if today's exam is only for you?

Tep, good luck with the blood test today.

I remembered the other half of what I wanted to say about accents last night too--watching all this Farscape has also fooled around with my accent a little too, because Browder is from Memphis; and when Crichton gets a little whackadoo, his accent thickens up considerably and he says stuff like "boy" and "son." Now, while I never usually melt for good ol' Southern boys, there's something about Browder that makes me go guh. It's probably that he's a damn hotass.

I gueaa there's nothing like this in your school, if today's exam is only for you?

Yeah, American universities are only accomodating if you make them be.

And to be fair, I'd have abused the hell out of an accomodation like that.

American universities are only accomodating if you make them be.

I wonder what's the source of the difference. I mean, having people here on reserve duty during their academic studies can't create such a vast difference, right?

[Edit: every class has two exams, term A and term B, and that's that. No more. If you missed term A or failed it, you can be tested again on term B.]

I like Indian, and Thai. I am trying to get more experimental about sushi. I know it's good, but I don't gravitate toward it. I need to hang out with more people who like sushi, I think. There's a Cambodian place here which is yum. I like pho. I like water chestnuts and greens.

Chinese food, I love, but have really had only American Chinese food, and like Nutty, I crave it like junk food. Going between Cambridge and Salem up rt. 1, we are always passing Kowloon, this gigantical hoooge Chinese place/comedy club and I SO want to go there, even though it's like, rt. 1 cuisine. I really want to get to Boston's Chinatown area for some dim sum soon.

TAR has scarred me. I'm glad to see that it seems to be back on track though. I didn't watch, due to aforementioned scarring.

I will have Thai food this week, I think!

I had Italian food last night and it was awesome.
