Anyone else in the middle of finals period?

Post by rudekick » Apr Thu 27, 2006 2:10 pm

Yuck.

I'm finishing my last semester of law school and I'm neck deep in work. Just finished a 20 page paper. Now it's on to a 30 page paper, and then I get to spend several days cramming for my intellectual property final. Subsonic really is the only thing keeping me sane right now!

Anyone else going through a similar situation?

Sort of. I'm still about two weeks away from my finals but I've got a ton of work to do-three major assignments due Monday and a test in Chemical Reaction engineering tomorrow, but I think your situation is even worse! Why is it that when the weather gets nice we get more work to do??
Meep meep meep.

Our students just finished theirs today and will be having their pig roast tonight and I get to go, WOO HOO. It's great that all the finals are done now I can sit back and relax since the students will be leaving (less work when they and you are gone for everyone) although I will miss them in the warm weather, nice veiwing.

Out of school, thank god... my fiancee is in her final year of grad school, which means she hasn't taken a traditional "final" in years. Of course... there is the matter of a doctoral dissertation, but all in good time (so she tells me) ;-)

Aack! Yes, finals have officially started for me. I performed my final acting presentation today which went fine. Now I have a fluid mechanics take home final to contend with. If anyone out there knows anything about fluid mechanics, I'd love some help! I'm so clueless and the professor is pure evil. Allow me to show you. :twisted: That's him.

Aargh! I thought I was all done with this ridiculous fluids take home final. I just checked over the instructions one last time to make sure I had everything ready to hand in. Yes, I totally missed the statement that said "Write solutions on only one side of the page." I've got a lot of rewriting ahead...

Thanks to all those who've been requesting area music this morning, it's been perfect to study by.

I've got finals the week of the 22nd, so we're at least in the homestretch. I've got a buttload of work to do between now and then. :(

Wish me luck! Today I've got Statisitics, and tomorrow it's Design and Manufacturing. Then I'm all done! Back to the books. :roll:

I'm all done with finals! And what a relief it is. Good luck to all those who are still in the middle of it all. It'll be over soon!

Yep, being done (even if you don't know if you passed) makes the world right again :)

Gratz Esmerald for getting done.

I finished up yesterday as well and I don't know if there is a better feeling in the world than waking up and realizing you don't have any more studying to do for a long time!!

Ughhh yuck.

I just realized that ALL of my finals are on the SAME day. We finally got our finals scheduals and all 4 of mine are on the 23rd. That is sooooo weak.
