The official finals study break thread

sairose · #1 04-26-2004, 08:33 PM

Tomorrow is "dead day" (no classes) and finals start Wednesday, and I'm taking a break from my Music History III paper to start this thread. I thought we might all like a thread to vent our stress from finals.

I want this paper to be DONE!! Ahhhh!

I've got my hardest exam tommorrow. Stats. I'm scared. I've study for it all weekend. But I'm nervous about it. I've got to get a B to get a C in the class. Also, I don't have to repeat the course.

That's all I have left to do, and I just can't make it happen.

My school is wierd. We always begin our semesters later than everyone else, and end them earlier than any other school in the state. Tomorrow is actually our last day of finals. I have one test to go, and I've been studying for it since Thursday! Aaugh! I'm not completely finished moving out of the dorms either, and I have to be completely out by tomorrow evening! Oh, me... just another added stress!

Good Luck Everyone!

I've got a major govt research and statistics project that we've been working on for a while now...and a few days ago my computer exploded along with all the stuff on there. That'll be fun to do again.

My worst final is tomorrow, and my grade depends on it.

I'm terrified! But I have 2 12 packs of Diet Dr. Peppers to keep me going.

My Educational Psychology final is actually tomorrow, but I begged the teacher and she's letting me take it Monday instead. That takes a lot of the stress off!

I want to wish everyone the best of luck on his or her finals! Even though I don't have finals any more

, (yes, I have to brag a little

) I remember finals like they were yesterday. In fact, I took my last exam not so long ago (in December to be exact).

Congrats on anyone who is graduating in May! I get my degree mailed to me in May because I had to take 2 classes at the Tech college nearby to finish out my major.

3 down 1 to go

The Music History one was rough. The true and false section (only a 6th of the test) had 178 questions!

The rest of it wasn't as bad as I had expected though.

Educational Psychology is all I have left!

Twas the night before finals,
And all through the college,
The students were praying
For last minute knowledge.

Most were quite sleepy,
But none touched their beds,
While visions of essays
Danced in their heads.

Out in the taverns,
A few were still drinking,
And hoping that liquor
Would loosen up their thinking.

In my own apartment,
I had been pacing,
And dreading exams
I soon would be facing.

My roommate was speechless,
His nose in his books,
And my comments to him
Drew unfriendly looks.

I drained all the coffee,
And brewed a new pot,
No longer caring
That my nerves were shot.

I stared at my notes,
But my thoughts were muddy,
My eyes went ablur,
I just couldn't study.

"Some pizza might help,"
I said with a shiver,
But each place I called
Refused to deliver.

I'd nearly concluded
That life was too cruel,
With futures depending
On grades had in school.

When all of a sudden,
Our door opened wide,
And Patron Saint Put It Off
Ambled inside.

His spirit was careless,
His manner was mellow,
He started to bellow:

"What kind of student
Would make such a fuss,
To toss back at teachers
What they tossed at us?"

"On Cliff Notes! On Crib Notes!
On last year's exams!
On Wingit and Slingit,
And last minute crams!"

His message delivered,
He vanished from sight,
But we heard him laughing
Outside in the night.

"Your teachers have pegged you,
So just do your best.
Happy Finals to All,
And to All, a good test."

If nothing else....just say a rosary to the patron saint of procrastination...
