I think I should have studied more....

I think I should have studied more.  I also think I should have scanned the calculation pages from my BIOE 898 midterm.  The EXACT SAME calculation question showed up on the final.  Fuck.  Sure wasn't thinking there.  Maybe it was a good thing that I didn't scan it.  I likely got it wrong.  At least this time I get another shot.  I wish I would have kept a few more papers too.  Shit.  Well, maybe I can do better this time.  At least I'll be able to thoroughly think things through because I won't have idiot students bothering me over the week.  Whatever.  I guess there's bigger things to worry about.  It's all about perspective, right?

Today's final went badly.  I've forgotten how to focus and cram as much into my short-term memory and spit out the same amount and more.  The exam was a "footnotes" exam.  You know that shit you find in the footnotes of the text, the footnotes you don't read.  Yeah.  I didn't read them.  Fuck. 
Good thing I was going in with an 85, because I may have come out with a 65.....shit.  I'm really hoping for a 75....a 75 would be awesome.  Yeah, real awesome. 

On the plus side, I got to party with the AWESOME PHYSICS KIDS again this weekend.  Yeah, I just put awesome and physics together in the same sentence when referring to parties.  It was pretty awesome.  John brought his home brew.  To make it taste better, they added ice cream.  Eamon put it best when he said, "Yeah, it causes sclerosis and diabetes."  Good thing I just watched the story unfold instead of actively participating.  I also didn't participate in seeing Steve's ass.  I'm sure that was a good experience too, although I have nothing to base my comparison on.  Meh.  It's all relative right?

 On the plus side, if I've already answered a lot of my BIOE final questions, I have more time this week for marking and catching up on neglected research.  Cool.  More SCIENCE!  I might actually put in a 40-hour week.  Cool.  (Believe it or not, I actually put in an 8-hour day, and I still have about an hour more yet tonight, which I'll likely bump to tomorrow....because I don't want to mark after today's crappy exam). 

Yeah.  I should have studied more.
