    I just thought ill create a thread about the woes that our younger members are going through right now.

    For those of you who dont know, it is the time of finals. I just finished one final, and by this time thrusday, ill be finished with them all. But tomorrow will be H E double hockey Sticks. I have an AP chem final and a Pre-calc final tomorrow, and to top it off, i have to go to a game tonight in Pueblo...So this night will be fun... [face_plain]

    Any horror stories you want to share or share the stress you are going through right now?

    Ok I know I'm sure to get flamed but I gotta let loose.
    I was looking thru the new x mas icons and it hit me. there are icons for simpsons, muppets,flinstones, harry potter, national lampoons, as well as a ton of other misc choices. we all like this stuff and talk about it on the boards but enough is enough.

    Just wait until Finals becomes Deadlines, and Grades as the reward becomes Being able to eat.

    You will look back fondly on Finals.

    Amen to that Obi_Wannabe. I would take finals any day over arguing with Foleys over my credit card with them. Any day!

    While it's definitely true that work and supporting oneself presents an entire new legion of things to stress over, I have to admit that I *do* remember the angst of finals. Really, they were terrible... I remember being so stressed and sick with a cold one year that I brought my favorite stuffed bunny to the tests with me - and that was in grad school! (But then, my department and profs were used to us students being strange.) Maybe it's just that not enough time has passed for my memory to fog over. :)

    So, stress...I guess I'm relative low on it at the moment, for this time of year. I have about 2 days of work to get done in my 3/4 day at work before I leave tomorrow, but it could be worse.

    Good luck with finals and deadlines, everyone!

    I suppose I should take into account that finals and things were always easy for me. My best two examples: I fell asleep during both the SATs and my Chem final in military school. I got a 1400 on the SATs and an A on the Chem test (and I suck at Chem)

    Not that I'm bragging....;)

    Its all relative.
    When I was in school, It sucked & all I wanted was to work for a living. To actually get my own money for all those hours of doing what someone else told me to do.
    Now that I work for a living, It sucks & I want to be back in school pretending to do what someone else tells me to do while spending my parents money.

    So either way, it sucks & the stress is unavoidable.

    Happy Holidays [face_plain]


    always remember-

    It could be worse. Much, much, much worse.

    Yes. I too would rather be back in HS.

    I was in pueblo because i had a basketball game. It wasnt bad that i was going to pueblo, but i had to go there because i should have been studing instead of playing a game.


    Well, Pre-calc was easy, got that done. AP chem was reeeeally hard, and im glad thats done.

    Now for AP lit and Theology...uggghhh...

    I hated finals as much as the next person, but that feeling you get when you finish your last final is like a little slice of heaven pie!! or maybe drugs, take your pick, kiddies.
