Wait the five minutes and don't cheat. I only waited 2 minutes I cheated.

Gay as fuck.. I went to do the second part and I never saw any picture or words showing what I was supposed to answer.

It just said

1.

this is an old object
this is a new object.

and i smoke a ton of weed. but i was looking at the pics to help me remember whether or not they were larger than a shoebox... so i got really lucky i guess because i used the pictures but didnt know the pictures were the subject... tricky experimenters... the shoebox had nothing to do with it..... sneaky sneaky

anyway psych is a fun class

that was pretty hard, I think I could have easily remembered each word, but I couldn't remember if they showed a picture or not.
