Curse you all who are done finals already. My first is tomorrow and then I have one on the 24th, 26th, and 29th. Why the heck is everyone finished already and I am just starting.

A lot of people may be finishing earlier b/c classes finished earlier? That's my guess. My last class was April 9th. Also, their exams may all be bunched up or they simply may not have exams. Personally, I'll stay the extra week and have my exams spread out a bit more but it looks like the registrars/exam office hates you and bunched everything at the end. GL!

It isn't too bad. Just did one like 2 hours ago, then I have one Saturday, then Monday then Thursday so there are 2-3 day breaks in between which is fine.

Can't wait until I am done, going to sleep for an entire day.

After doing so well and writing 4 papers in about 5 days or so, I seem to have hit a wall right at crunch-time. Two papers, 3 editing assignments, and editing together a podcast all still to do before midnight Saturday. The two papers are 10+ pages. Have a feeling I shan't be sleeping until Saturday night. Shinguardty.

I know it's back on the last page, but my two stats classes were completely open-book!

Just one more final left... finding it hard to motivate myself to study when it's not til the 29th and it's so damn nice out. Although my final yesterday was so brutal.. nobody left until he called time up. NOBODY!! Aaargghh just glad that cost accounting is done!

Just screwing around thinking of ideas for an English Paper, the final is tommorow at 11AM but he gave us some essays to look at and write a essay in response to those. He expected us to create some sample drafts/versions for class, and thus expects a good paper, I'm just thinking at this point I'm going to try and generate a few point form notes of what I'm going to talk about, I just dont have the motivation or energy to do anything further. Stayed up all night for a Comp Sci Final this morning at 8AM, and after that, just cant take this English crap seriously. Thank god school is almost over, have a stupid macro-econ final in a week or so, honestly have no clue whats going on in that class, but then again, its econ, so it shouldn't be too bad.

What school do you go to? Just curious as my English was the same, but I suspect they all are.

I have a macro-econ test too on the 29th and I will no doubt fail. I missed like 2 weeks straight and haven't been able to catch up. I have no idea what the hell is going on at all when it comes to the graphs, which are most of the marks, haha.

What program are you in? It seems like a very diverse range of classes you're taking.

I assume you're going over IS/LM models and maybe some Solow growth models?

I'm at Mt Royal. Taking Computer Science as a major, and the English/Econ are just random options I decided to take to fill out the course load.

I go to Mt. Royal, I didn't want to go to U of C.

I hate Economics (macro), but I sort of enjoyed micro. I don't understand how I can go from enjoying it (micro), to downright wanting to kill myself (macro). Ah well, only 1 more test then I am done.

And if I remember correctly we are going over AD/AS models Money Supply models, Phillips Curve, etc.

My Major sucks, it is "Entrepreneurship - Small Business" and so far all my first year courses I have taken one Entre class for both semesters. I don't take any Entre courses until Year 3 now. My degree is so useless, I'll most likely go back and get my BBA in 2 years as I have some of the classes for it already.

Its been such a pain logging on to facebook lately... its annoying when people brag on their status that they're done exams! Its like being a prisoner and seeing all your friends go free before your time is up. Its come to the point where I've decided not to log on until I'm done.

Finished a good chunk of these labs. Still have that damn Calc final to study for and an assignment. Hopefully I can finish/hand in everything the same day as that last final (Tuesday).

Most people I know are done already, too. I'm jealous.

One paper left...and I'm not entirely sure if I'm going to have to do it. The prof likes me, tomorrow is the last day of exams, and I think I've done pretty well in the rest of the class. I've asked him if we could negotiate redistributing my mark without this paper; I'm kind of hoping to eat about 10% of the grade, which leaves 15% to be distributed elsewhere among my other assignments. I really, really hope he lets me do it, because I don't know what I'm going to do if he doesn't.

Ugh, I've already had three of those in the past week. I'm pretty damn close to waving the white flag regardless of if he accepts my proposal to defer some of the marks.

I've been figuring, and at my count I've written just shy of 100 pages worth of essay in the past two weeks. Plus spent a combined 10 or so hours doing my multimedia projects. Fourth year is hard, man. Why didn't anyone warn me?

At least you're done though right?

My last semester of year 4 is one course, which is basically "go make your own company and report back". haha
