Z minus 1 day
May. 18th, 2004 08:09 amI walked out of my Algebra final yesterday with my brain feeling like mush- all I could do when I got home was lose endless games of Tetris and try to remember how to spell my own name.
But. I also walked out of there feeling like I did okay. I think all the studying I did paid off, because I remembered a lot more of it than I thought I would. Once I got rolling on the test it was like, "Okay, I did one of these over the weekend... you do this, and then you do this, and..." So I felt pretty good about most of it. There were a few problems I looked at and had no clue how to do, but I'd known going into it that there were gonna be a few of those. There were a few things I never caught up on from, you know, that day I was in ER passing a kidney stone. Whoops. My bad.
But there were 30 problems, and only a few I didn't know how to do. I'm not saying I got all of the others right, but I think I might've gotten most of them.
Last semester, with the Algebra I, I was really unsure if I'd passed the class or not. This time around I feel pretty optimistic about it.
(Well, that, and really glad it's bloody over!)
So now I have my Soc final left to study for. And it's less of a final and more of a test on the last three chapters we covered. No essay question, and she gave us a review sheet spelling out what we need to know for the final.
Have I mentioned lately how much I love my Soc teacher? I'm going to miss her terribly, even though I'll see her at AGS meetings and stuff, because she's funny and smart and cool, and I learned a hell of a lot from her this semester. Soc is a class that can be really boring- our book is serious bedtime reading- but she made it interesting.
Also, there's a Michael Moore video on our final. Michael Moore! I love Michael Moore.
So, yeah. I'm pretty much over the stressing thing. I'll study for my Soc final today, take it tomorrow morning, say good riddance to my Algebra book at the bookstore buy-back sale, and wave a cheerful goodbye to the campus till August.
And then it's all over but the waiting for grades.
And if I can find the paper, I have the passwords to check my Algebra grade, which she said she'd have posted by *gulp* tomorrow.

Of course, I can't find the paper. *sigh*
