Finals...



Oh, it's final week
Time to study hard and cram
Oh the lack of sleep

Finals. The time where you find out whether or not your really learned everything you were supposed to learn over the course of the term. If you don't think you learned it, you can put it on a half sheet of paper, front and back, and bring it to the test. I managed to fit everything I don't feel confident about (and the tables of crap I didn't bother memorizing) onto a 8.5" by 5.5" piece of paper. One side is completely covered in size 5 font, and the other side has the rest of the size 5 text and some things that would be too hard to type and some things I added last minute.

I took my first final on Sunday, starting at 9:20pm and finishing at 12:10am. It was online and I feel pretty good about my performance on that one. My second final was at 2:00 on Monday, and it was for my intro to mechanical engineering class. I also felt fairly confident with that test. My third final did not go so well. I took my calculus final on Tuesday at 7:30am (terrible time!) and did really well on the first 7 problems. Then i got my but kicked bby the last three. Two of which I didn't even put an answer so the highest score I can get is 80%, and that is if I aced the rest (very unlikely). After the test I went on a run to the far edge of town to clear my head and get away. Today, my legs hurt like a bitch! I'm taking my last final tomorrow morning at 7:30. After that I am finished with college until January 7th.

It's past 1am and I'm getting up at 5:30am to allow plenty of time to wake up and get my brain in the zone for Chemistry, so I'm going to sleep.

Goodnight.

Way to go - I'm so jealous. At least you got to use notes. My chem teacher gives us all the plain memorization stuff on the tests, but in math we get nothing. It would be so nice to have a table of derivatives and list of theorems. Also I have an oral final in core... yuck. Shouldn't be too bad though. I'm pumped to get it over with. Try not to have too much fun without me this week. See ya.
