eh, that’s really not that weird to me… so I guess yeah, I could see pigs flying and I would be like “Meh. Okay. That’s just how the world works”
ugh, for the fall I just realized that I might have a course load that will kill me. Well, it probably won’t be the course load that would kill me wherein if I were just doing school, but I need to work as well. It’s kind of funny how I’m in a major that if I succeed in it, I am supposed to have a really good paycheck, but right now I have to work. Eh… don’t know where I was going with this train of though, sorry.
I’m stuck in so many ways about next semester. I’m probably going to transfer so I’ll have a schedule for my current school but I’m at a loss when it cones to the new one.
I got judged so hard by the taco guy in the DC the other night because all I wanted was raw veggies in a hard shell =/
Also, do your schools have spring concerts or events like that? Mine’s got a big one in two weeks, but I don’t think i’m gonna go because I don’t really listen to the artists.
The most recent announcement for my school’s Spring Fling was in 2003, so I’m gonna go with no, haha. Next year I’ll have Slope Day to look forward to, though <:-P
I only have one final in finals week. One is a week before plus a paper and both my CS classes do 2 midterms and no final, so I have those over the next two weeks. By April 15th all I will have left is a paper and an exam.
I have a final paper worth for one class, a final composition for music theory, and then a final for math and CS. Those are the week of April 27th. Then I have all the other ending things for music ensembles, lessons, and music minor/major things. Those include the orchestra concert, chamber concert, jazz combo concert, concerto competition, repertoire performance for piano, repertoire performance for my primary instrument, juries for piano, juries for primary instrument, and piano studio recital. Those all happen over the next couple weeks before April 27th. I also have a second midterm for CS the week of April 13th. Yeah… can’t wait for this to all be over.
I just quit the research lab I’ve been working in, and I feel so much better.
And I don’t have any traditional finals, thankfully, just two projects and a presentation due in June. The downside to being on a quarter system is that you get out later than pretty much everybody else, middle schoolers and semester students included…
So my class registration is tomorrow at 7am and I was just going through my shopping cart one last time to make sure everything is fine and decided to double check the reviews for the professors on RMP and realized that for one of my professors (Political Science) has no reviews whatsoever. The rest have really positive reviews except him. I know nothing about him, I have no idea what to expect. I’m a little nervous. It’s like Russian roulette. He could be fantastic or he could be dreadful.
That’s been the case with about half of my professors. It’s so frustrating! However, most of the time it is for a required class offered once a semester, so I’m stuck with them regardless.
I searched one of the professors I’ll have, and there is no one listed by that name at my university. However, there are two people with the same name (both from the same department that my class is in). So I read those reviews, assuming that the professor has just taught at several schools. However, the two are drastically different… So I honestly don’t know which of the two to expect (and might just be a third person, not all related to the other two).
Well, at my school, if reviews are bad, you usually don’t have a great time. Case in point: math professor rated in the high 20s (out of 100) and most people I know are doing very badly. The “horrible but I will appreciate it later” category seems to be around 40-60. The “awesome, seems to love teaching” category is like 85+ (note: categories made up by me). Idk what reviews for other schools look like (i.e. whether they follow a similar pattern).
This is crazy, I have pretty much one month remaining in freshman year! It’s been a long year, but short at the same time. I’ve got two finals on one day (separated by half an hour – kind of daunting), and then I get to take my horrible math final at 8 AM.
Oh, this may be a weird question, but how do y’all deal with eating around tests? Or like do you eat during tests?
I’ve counted calories since I was twelve, and my eating patterns are really weird as a result. I usually eat a lot of food at midnight, because that’s when the new day starts and my calories get renewed. Then I don’t have to eat during the day, which is ultimately convenient because I don’t have very much time.
