I work in a call center. After guiding our customer through an extremely stressful problem, he ended the call with my rep by straight-faced saying "Well, at least you aren't a Jamaican Warlock".

What is this man's life like.
He's obviously a wizard who has to regularly fight the evil forces of Jamaica.

I just got an email from a professor I know congratulating me on a fellowship application that is apparently doing well. I have applied for no fellowships.
You just got volunteered, mate.

Found out that the seminar I'll attend next semester is somewhat more advanced than I previously thought.

I absolutely need it to finish my bachelor's degree on time though. Let's see how it goes.
What course?

What's your major, or the equivalent in German?

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

Mathematics - this is an algebra seminar. It'll be a fair bit of work, but it's far from impossible, at least if I time it right with respect to my bachelor's  thesis.

I think my car is dying. Thankfully it only overheated and became difficult to steer and brake half way through the roundabout :I

Anxiety about still not having a real career

Anxiety about not being psychologically able to throw anything out but being forced to.

TIL my cell biology exam is tomorrow, instead of next week as I thought until very recently. If I don't make it out of there, know that I regret nothing. Until then, it's time to cram as I've never crammed before.

I recommend getting Anki, putting all the factoids into a deck and then cramming it tonight and tomorrow morning.

Well, test taken and honestly it could've been worse. I figure I got a low C at best, but considering the circumstances I'd say that's about the best I can hope for. I highly doubt I failed it, so that's something. The professor usually has the things graded by the next class. I guess we'll see how it went then. I also think I'll continue to use Anki. My biggest difficulty with that course is remembering the names and functions of the dozens of proteins and enzymes we need to know from each chapter and this is basically built for that sort of thing.

Argh, Biology. The bane of my existence.

Prothallus, ploidy, distal convoluted tubule.

Who cares, eh?

Though I find the ecology side of it the most drab and boring, not the enzymes, but then again I'm only doing it at A level.

Assuming you're referring to the same thing I am, yes.

I misread prothallus as phallus, which I'm assuming Objective did too.
