    Two weeks after thanksgiving and my Winter Finals Begin.

    Business Metrics (this one will probably be no sweat)
    Business Law 2 (Also not too worried about this one)
    Biometrics (an elective science, I might fail, cause I haven't been able to show too much)
    History of Law and Government (Should be a difficult one, but I've been doing well in the class thus far.)
    Business Method 101 (Easy as ice.)
    Business Philosophy (This one I'm really sweating the worst. I just hate reading Ayn Rand...)

    I just had some Embryology and Genetics formatives. I'm pretty sure I'll pass, but I don't think I'll be above the 60th centile or so in my class. Of course, they don't matter, so this is fine.

    I failed the Thermodynamics test yesterday. Strange, since I thought the material easy and got an A on the first test. Oh well....

    I'm doing pretty darn good on all my tests (Econ- Int'l Trade, Chemical Engineering (Ch E), Greek History, Physics)...except for my organic chemistry tests. Argh, that subject is surely the work of the devil.

    And weirdly, I manage to avoid pre-test stress almost all the time.

    Heh, if you're reading Atlas Shrugged just wait for the 50 page speech one guy gives.

    Where do you go to school? Chemical Engineering is a damn hard subject.

    Been there done that, and it was probably the first time in my life that I would have preferred a Canker Sore over a 2 hour speech.

    The test is covering Atlas Shrugged, and "Imperial Philosophies" which covers every major British Business Philosopher from 1820-1946. Its a 3000 page book, and I still have to read about 1400 pages... in a week. Which actually shouldn't be too hard, just retaining the information for the test will.

    And knowing my Professor, she will either make us write a 6 page essay, or give us one random question pertaining to the book. (Just to make sure you read it) and if you fail, you basically fail the semester. ugh.

    Calculus, Microeconomy, Introduction to the Science of Law, Accounting and Management Accounting, all coming up...

    First up: Calculus. I understand it. But can I keep it all in my head when the day comes?

    I just taught myself Minor during a test. My brain hurts and the circle of 5ths is spinning before me.

    C+ on Calculus. So much for all the studying I put in.
