Their honest and sincere thoughts on The Notebook. The film obviously, not the book, because obviously Nick Cassavettes takes some artistic licences in adapting Nicholas Sparks' timeless classic, and while blasphemous to change such a work of art I think that it paid off in spades, the slight changes he made to Noah's character (who was portrayed absolutely wonderfully by Ryan Gossling I might add) really added to the overall story. |

No. Psychiatry is a medical field aimed at studying, preventing and diagnosing mental disorders.
Psychobiology is a sub-field of neuroscience. Like the neurological implications of schizoaffective disorder, for example.
Psychiatrists have to know a bit of neuroscience and how it pertains to various disorders, but psychobiology is much more in depth in regards to the neuroscience aspect of abnormal psychology. |

Ignimbrite
02.21.16 | Geology major about 3 months away from graduating; there's a 90% chance that I'll have accepted a doctoral candidacy position within the next two weeks doing research in experimental petrology/planetary geology (fingers crossed so hard that they're basically bonded together at this point, but the outlook is positive).
tbh I've been digging the shit out of the new Yeezy album this week, so let's go with that |
ZippaThaRippa
02.21.16 | Petrology is some fun shit. I never expected to do well in that class but I aced it. I really struggled with Sedimentary Geology though. |
ZippaThaRippa
02.21.16 | Paleoclimatology was where it was at for me though. If you can look past all of the apocalyptic signs are pretend like we're not currently living through the beginning of a mass-extinction event precipitated by an unbelievably rapid climate shift. |
Ignimbrite
02.21.16 | literally the exact same thing happened to me fam
like, I thought igpet was gonna be hard as shit and it absolutely was hard as shit but I ended up doing really well, and I also found out that my true love is igneous rocks. then I took sed/strat and it didn't feel like that hard of a class and I enjoyed most of it but I ended up doing only okay |
Ignimbrite
02.21.16 | y'all I dig paleontology, but it falls too close to sed/strat for me to be especially good at it. I am a crystalline man, through and through. I wish dinosaurs were more my jam, though. |
Asdfp277
02.21.16 | is ignimbrite some sort of sexy igneous rock |
ZippaThaRippa
02.21.16 | I thought it was going be a lot more difficult than it was. It turns out that the things I had learned in Mineralogy clicked with me extremely well. I could look at an igneous rock under a microscope for 60 seconds and tell you everything that it was in it. It was probably the first time in college where I felt like I 'got it' 100 percent. It was especially funny because I had passed Mineralogy by the skin of my teeth. Our Min professor ended up coming with us on a field trip and whenever she asked the group questions I fucking smoked everyone. Neither she, nor I understood where all the answers were coming from.
Sed was a different story. There were a couple kids in that class who were absolutely destined to get their doctorate degrees. The professor himself was a genius. I didn't hold a candle to any of them and it was painfully obvious. Oh well. It was a hell of a learning experience. Scraped by with a C. |
ZippaThaRippa
02.21.16 | paleontology is great fun. It makes Sed so much easier. Looking at core samples is a cinch when you have index fossils. They are a GODSEND. |
Ignimbrite
02.21.16 | My man, it sounds like there are many boxes of thin sections in your future should you choose to continue your geologizing past undergrad. |
Ignimbrite
02.21.16 | @asdfp it's basically a term for bigass pyroclastic deposits (like, the scary grey death clouds coming out of Mt St Helens are the shit that forms ignimbrites) |
ZippaThaRippa
02.21.16 | I would be all about that. Give me some thin sections, a couple of red bulls and a sandwich and I will power on through until the morning light starts coming in through the lab windows. |
Ignimbrite
02.21.16 | I love looking at thin sections until about five hours in when I've seen one too many weathering textures that I can't fucking identify and I develop a beastly headache and it all just goes downhill from there.
Sub five hours, though, and it's some dope shit. |
ZippaThaRippa
02.21.16 | I can attest to the headaches. I walk out of there feeling like I'm going blind and my skull is about to crack open. Definitely don't miss that part of it.
And yeah, weathering textures are fucking bullshit. |

02.21.16 | "aspiring graphic designer" was probably a poor choice of words on my part since it implies I'm not a graphic designer already when I guess I technically am, just not a pro or anything yet. I've done some website graphics here and there and album artwork for a couple local bands but I'm still working on learning and improving. doing it as a profession is the end goal though. |
