Today, my daughter believed that watching the Big Bang Theory would count as studying for her chemistry final. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, for the nth time, my father reminded me that I should study things related to the "real" world, as if I was studying theology, astrology or something. I'm studying for a master's degree in physics. FML
Today, I had the worst day of my life. I'd studied science for the whole damn night, only to realize the next morning that it's a math exam. FML
Today, since my finals are starting tomorrow, I made a joke about setting my math books on fire. I laughed. Friends laughed. Parents laughed. Guess what subject just managed to actually get in touch with my scented candles? FML
Today, I found out that I was one point away from passing a state science exam. FML
Today, I was walking with my very attractive friend who I like a lot. She then told me that her roomate wouldn't be home tonight, and if I wanted, I could come over and study history. I didn't get it. I told her no thanks, that I was covered, and it was chem I needed to study. An hour later, I understood. FML
Today, I tried to get ready for a final. I had about six hours to study. My girlfriend decided to help by jabbering loudly in my ear about celebrity gossip, noisily cleaning the office and losing my notes, and getting in a screaming argument with her mom over the phone. FML
Today, I asked my college chemistry teacher for some much-needed help. Instead of explaining anything to me, she scoffed that if I don't understand something, I should "just Google it." FML
Today, I was taking a biology final and was just randomly tapping my pencil. My teacher thought I was somehow communicating with the person next to me, and decided to fail me. FML
Today, I found out that I have been studying for the wrong final exam. One more hour until the test. FML
Today, I have a final for my precalculus class. After hours of studying this week, I felt pretty optimistic. Until I got to class and realized that I'd forgotten my calculator. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Believe it or not, I've learned a lot from that show :) but not enough to count it as studying.

Not so much willing as it is making up an excuse to watch a tv program to get out of studying, lol.

Procrastination. I would watch tv shows or play games when I'm supposed to be studying as well. Then cram all the studying the night before :/

Yeah, but did you try to tell yourself or others that you were actually studying by playing those games or watching those shows? The procrastination is normal, the pretending it's not procrastination at all is kinda weird :/

Oh I know I'm procrastinaing. My friends would ask "soooo are you studying?" and I would say "Oh yea totally, I'm not here shooting peoples heads off in this game". They know I procrastinate, they procrastinate too. And no, I would not pretend I"m procrastinating. I pay enough attention and do enough homework to not need the studying. If I'm unsure of a subject then I will definitely study it, especially for College.

I don't think you should need to study for a chem final. LOL

It counts don't question her choice.

Well, The Big Bang Theory IS an awesome show. While it doesn't do much for my school work, either, it makes for the best procrastination activity ever!

Disagreed, the best procrastination activity is clearly complaining about the work you're putting off and making excuses as to why you're waiting to do it.

It does have a lot of scientific points in it but I don't think it will help a ton depending on what she has studied this year...

Breaking Bad might be a better choice. And hey, who knows, maybe she'll have to dispose of a body in the future.
