I like resurrecting old posts :P sometimes its fun to use the search tab cause you see soooo many topics and some I have totally forgotten about.

I am wondering it must be finals time cause the forums aren't as busy as they usually are!

Good luck to those of you taking your finals!

Finals for me are in two weeks. Luckily, as a senior I have am on track to being exempt from 5 of 7. However, one of those requires a lot of studying. I think I will be listening to a lot of the sorin' stream to help me get through the studying.

I did that for several summers at Penn State, the result was 3 years in school instead of 4. Of course that doesn't mean anything because I'm not using my degree at the moment or in the near future anyway.

I can't tell you how happy I am to be done with finals forever. Not having to take finals is just about one of this nicest feelings! Best of luck to those of you who still have finals in your future - summer is almost here.
Drop another coin in slot and I will tell you more.

I read the title of this post and thought it was about hockey finals! Silly me. While I'm not taking any finals of the test variety, I work for the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins, which is the American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate of the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Well, for those who follow the sport, you may know Pittsburgh was in the Stanley Cup finals, but lost on Wednesday. :cry:

Our team is currently staving off elimination in our finals, in our quest for the Calder Cup. We're down 3-0 in the series going into tonights game, so it doesn't look good for us.

In any event, finals (in relation to hockey) have been evil for both us and Pittsburgh! Sorry to pull this thread off topic... just thought I'd share my warped thought of what this thread was before I actually started reading it!

My finals were over a month ago and I'm glad they were over but I just remembered today that I signed up for a summer class in the 2nd session which begins June 30th. It's only one class but I really love the freedom and relaxation of the summer time.

I had 3 finals in a row. Physics, Decrete Math, and Architectural History class. I pass them all, thankfully.
Love Tomorrowland and Adventureland, but hard to decide to which one is best.

Well it is close to midnight here on the east coast. I have decided to call it quits on studying for my last high school final which will begin at 8:30 tomorrow. Teacher may have brushed on half the stuff the final will encompass, so it should be fun. Tomorrow at 10:40 my high school years come to an unofficial end!

UPDATE 6/20: Pulled the A off just after the curve. I guess I had some Disney magic in taking this final!

Had to bring this topic back up. The Fall 2008 semester is coming to a close already. Finals are starting up for me next week. I can't believe it has gone by so fast. It feels like yesterday is was Labor Day!

Good luck to you Len90, I remember my college days (I'm not that far removed) and stressing over finals! Although I miss college terribly, finals, not so much! It's a great feeling once they're over! Good luck!!! :D
