| finals
All right... I'm officially terrified of tonight. I have a final form 7:30 to 9:30, and I'm so afraid I'm going to flunk it (even thoigh deep down, I know that I won't). I think I'm actually starting to feel ill, sick, or whatever else you want to call it. This isn't good.  I want to go hide and never come out again. (What's worse is that I actually have to walk to that testing room. It's like I'm voluntarily going to walk to my doom.)
I need a hug or something. |

| Awwww... Thanks.
It was stats 350. I think I did all right on it, but I did feel like I was putting down some stupid answers to easy questions that I couldn't remember once in a while. I WAS expecting somewhere around an A- in the class as a whole, but just in case I screwed it up... Maybe a B+ overall? I don't know. I don't want to say anything because I don't want to jinx it.
My last final is on Monday (the 19th). I have a fifteen page paper (well, actually three five page papers) due by noon on Monday for a history class (History 171: Coming to Terms with Germany), and my Spanish final is from 7 to 9 that night. Then I'm done! Yay! | |

| All right... I need to reiterate this. I absolutely HATE finals. 'Tis why I'm in the UGLi right now WANTING to procrastinate working on my history final but knowing that I can't (which I just got on Tuesday so no, I haven't had a lot of time to work on it). All I really want to do right now is just relax.
University of Michigan, you're lucky that I like you so much or I just might be angry with you.  | |

| Is it just me or are the finals here really easy? Compared to the finals I had in high school....these finals are jokeworthy. Most classes put a lot of weight on finals, and I'm thinking it's because they want to give students a grade boost and ease general finals-time nerves. I've taken two of my 4 so far and got 100% on both. I would have NEVER gotten these sorts of grades on finals in HS, and I'm not getting much smarter over time, so I'm thinking finals here are just easy. | |

| No, Chibearsfan17 is just a genius, which I personally am not. (I'm the normal one here.)
I wouldn't say they're easy, but I would say they're normal finals that are worth a ton of your grade. Yes, they are freaking me out right now and probably too much so, but that is just me. It basically depends on what classes you took and how much material you covered (because it is all fair game) as well as who you personally are. For me, yes, they're challenging.

| All right. Seven pages are written for my history final so far, and I want to scream because of it. I still have to write eight more pages. This is like pulling teeth. I just want to go home and relax and get away from work for a little bit! (*pleading*)
PS: I gave up my Michigan vs. UCLA basketball ticket today so that I could work. I feel sick. (Though I did give it to a friend that probably needed it more than I did so that makes me feel a little better about everything... She was really happy to have it, too.  ) | |

| Well, had you not given up your tickets, then the game itself would have made you sick. I went, and although it had some great moments, it was an overall anemic performance. So yeah, that might have been for the better... | |

| LOL. Yeah, that's probably true. I heard what the outcome was. Unfortunately. | |

| Do I honestly have just about eleven pages written? Might I actually get my life back from the bowels of hell soon? (*being hopeful here* ) | |

| Go me! I'm on the last page! (Then I get to finish studying for my Spanish final tomorrow. Oh joy. It never ends.)
PS: 158 people looked at this thread. Really? This thread is kind of pointless. (Sorry 'bout that by the way. I've been kind of stressed lately.) | |
