Ask Me Help Desk - The Lounge 2

I would love a meet-up.

I'M BACK!

[/end transmission]

Anyone else?

Are we the only night owls?

I'm a night owl... but I do live on the west coast lol

Nobody said that you had to live near us to meet with other members. We could do it by different regions... We could even break it up by time zones or something.

Yeah I usually am a night owl, I stay up regularly to like 1 a.m. or to a.m. which is weird because I love sleep, but I never get enough when I stay up that late. I should really work on that...

I only sleep a few hours a night, which might be why I am able to surf so much :)

I'd be willing to meet other people... but I'm kind of a newbie here, so I don't want to jump in and make anyone uncomfortable with the idea, either.

Surfings cool, we have our fair share of surfers out here in cali... I have never done it, mainly due to water sports aren't my thing, I like snowboarding and what not...

Did you ever see point break?

Point Break is one of my favorite movies.

Same here... keanu and patrick are awesome in it... mia con tios lol

Allright well it's time for me to start my night... I am going to bail... much love from cali everyone

Have a good one! And Lol @ quote haha

Well, tomorrow is the big day.

DA BEARS vs DA Ponies, opps the Colts.

So, who is up for wings, skins and chili?

I am... and not to upset you bears fan but I have put my bet down on the Colts. Hey, Rex did well but I don't ride dark horses on Super bowl Sunday. I could be wrong though, but I like my chances. Also, tomorrow a friend of mine is going to attempt to eat 100 chicken Mcnuggets in an hour and fifteen minutes. I will inform you if he makes it, or if a trip to the hospital was necessary. Just out of curiosity how many of you think he can make it?

Hmmm...

48!

Da Bears lost, oh well, at least they made it that far!!

Test yesterday went okay, was the hardest of the 2 semesters so far.

How many did he eat Wizz? I am guessing 64.

67.5 to be exact... very close j, but after 67.5 he puked and had a pretty crappy rest of the day. I think he ended up puking around five times total...

Meh... good thing he didn't use barbecue sauce.

Actually lol... he did. He said that was the only way he could get them down. Which I think was a good idea, because if you have ever eaten mcnuggets by themselves they get gross after around 10, so I imagine that they would be unbearable without sauce around like 30.

Whoa...

YUCKIE!!

Sentra I want a pair of shoes like those!!

Do you think they would look good in a nursing uniform. LOL.. NOT!!

But I love them anyway!!

Thanks and same to you!!

... not the kind of nursing uniform in an actual hospital... hahaha!:)

LMAO.

It is so nice to be back in the Lounge. It has been a while, but a great breath of fresh air!!

WooHoo, party at my place!! I just got into the Who's Who Among Students!!

71 people in my school were chosen and I was one. I contacted the school and it is legit.

I don't know why I was picked though my GPA is not all that great. But I will take it if I can add it to my CV!!

Yay! Gratz J_9! :)

TY Sentra!! This only happens once a year, and when I was in high school I was a D- student (and I tried HARD). I feel like I got a brand new lease on life with this. I feel YOUNG again!!

That's so great, very cool and congrats isn't a good enough word!:) You ARE young, age is just the number of years we've made living worthwhile!!

Oh, girl I love that!! "Age is just the number of years we've made living worthwhile." I will have to remember that one!!

Yes I may be 42, but sometimes I feel 22. The older you are, and the older you feel is the older you get.

Oh, come on, we have to revive The Lounge. Don't want it to end on post #666 do we? http://www.ask-it-here.com/emoticons/devil.gif

Very bad sign.

So, who as the Kool Aid? I am about to open the pool yet again for another season.

Taking bar-B-que requests.

Sorry J_9, I got caught up in trying to answer a question and didn't see you.

I liked Synnen's post, on your "30" post, about the bottle opener. Very true. I had bought a cheapie back in my college days that had a key chain on it. It was a nice handy little doodad. I only lost it about three years ago. Boy, am I sad case. I was just thinking that when I was a real mover and shaker in my younger days, all glammed up for the big city job, managing and running companies, I was still running around with that freakin' thing. No wonder everyone always invited me out for drinks after work!

Hey, let's move this party over to The Looney Bin

Thanks for the invite J-9.
I forgot about the good old lounge.

Come on over to The Looney Bin Tuscany

Pretend you have to take a test that your career depends on. You are only given 1 1/2 hours for the test. Your instructor is 20 minutes late. She passes out a test with over 200 math problems on it, and there are 9 pages. The problems are in no way shape or form what she has taught.

Now, you must get a minimum of a 75% on your test or you lose your career.

She is 20 minutes late. Did I say that? About 10 minutes before the test is scheduled to end, and after a few people finish and leave the class, the teacher says "I am so sorry I must have made this test too hard. I promise that all of you will pass this test. I will have to make a big curve for you all to pass, but you will pass."

5 minutes later she comes back into class and says "Your favorite nursing instructor has given you as much time as you need to finish this test. Just remember that you all will pass. I promise."

5 minutes later she announces that we have only 15 minutes left. What happened to "all the time we need?"

After 90% of the class finishes and leaves under the assumption that there will be a "big curve" and that we "all will pass," she announces to the remaining 10% that "since you have had extra time there will be no need to curve the grade."

Now understand that she gave us a study guide, told us what reviews in the book to do. "The test will be just like the cumulative review on page such and such." The test was NOTHING like that!!!

100% of the class feels as though they failed the test. I have to wait 24 hours to find out if I have been kicked out of nursing school because of this one wacko teacher.

This will be the longest 24 hours of my life. I already have high blood pressure, I don't need this load of crap!!!!!!!!!

Sorry to unload, just had to get it out.

Now this!!!??? What happened to The Lounge??????

Oh, I need to go back to bed and start all over.

After my original schooling, I hit upon lots of teacher like this, wanted to smack them right in the head with a head of cabbage, (less fattening), they generally don't care, their working on their doctrates or whatever... Don't despair, if you've gotten this far you can continue. In the one class I took, (over and over till I was dizzy. 3 times) I finally ended up knowing more than the next professor!! Personally I doubt if you failed, the people that have ulcers and IBS in college, are generally the ones that pass, truly I am one. and I know that you are equally as dedicated in your field!!
If baldness could have occurred, I'd be shinining right now. When you know that you are true to your field and you've studied till your blind, I doubt that you'll fail, especially you!! Sorry I have too much faith in you!! Don't sweat the small s----! We love what we do and therefore I believe even though we think we're going to fail we,don't!! Relax, have some fun with the kids, take a low fat, low sugar, chill pill, it'll be all right!! Trish!! :D

J9---Don't want to hear about ole age from young wippersnappers like you, My kids gave me a perfect Mug a couple of years ago (months... ) it's betty boop (my idol), it says, while she's posing ever so sexily, Honey, 50's not old... And although I'll never tell anyone my real age, it's cool, I don't act old, feel old, or look old, life has been good. And Oil of Olay is a miracle drug!! lol. I raised 4 kids alone, ate good food, exercised, chasing after the hooligans, and worked hard. And when I look at some women my age, I say thank you God! I may have been without some stuff, but, I have perfect health, a good body, not on any kind of drugs and life is great!! So think ahead what you got to look forward too!! Lots of good stuff, believe me... :D
