3.0 gpa required or you failboat ^ i know many people in ans dept that swear they are so busy. you have a life, you just want to feel like you don't for clicheish reasons.

I was actually online continuously for 36 hrs or so total cause i was up early before the egghunt began
and was up till midnight after teh hunt ended

also, when you already have a gf, what is special about friday nights? we don't do the bar scene, nor do we 'party' like you kids. im usually washing my car saturday morning and i wouldn't have time for that if i slept in cause i got trashed fri night now would i?

Do you have to have a 3.0 in grad school?

Because if I ever had to urge to go, this could be a major fucking obstacle for me

its also not uncommon to hang out with friends and do something that doesn't involve partying / drinking.

i usually grill at my place, with the fridge stocked with my favorite import...have 2-3 ppl over, maybe a couple or friends with kids, maybe my parents...it's a whole different dynamic than college life cause my house always has to be presentable for company.

You are putting off the real world. And you probably are naive to it.

I am pretty much the worst grad student in my major, but I base this on the fact that all I do is procrastinate, not cheat, use common sense to get by, and sit in the very back of the class.

i had a 3.5 my first semester in grad school. i quasi had a life (went out on weekends...some, but not all). who the hell knows what is going on this semester, but shit got real and now i DEFINITELY have no life and i feel like my gpa is spiraling out of control (i hope that is just a feeling, since i spend sooooooo much time at school).

cheers to no life. cheers to advanced degrees. gooooo grad school.

No more free gym. At Penn at least. I'm not going to pay to go for the short free time that I can find.
