athenaltenaFinals: One down, three to go.
Maybe it's just me, but I've never found them to be that stressful. It seems that if you just pay attention and do the assignments you have nothing to worry about and you should be able to breeze through the final. Then again I also only took 40 minutes to finish a final that was scheduled for an hour and a half, so I should talk. I just happen to write really fast, and that was one reason I loved college compared to high school since when you're done you can actually leave rather than have to wait for everyone else. That's why I sometimes felt like The Flash in high school (nerdy reference FTW).
Now if only I'd stop coughing up my lungs it would be hunky doory. I had intended to visit some friends at the State House the other day since I had the day off, but considering that I couldn't go five minutes without coughing up green ooze due to allergies I figured that wasn't the best idea, especially since everyone's all paranoid about this swine flu thing (to the point that Suffolk just sent us an email reassuring us that they've found no cases in Massachusetts or at Suffolk, though a quick glance at the news would tell you that too).
I've also started packing up my stuff so I can leave on Thursday, mostly cleaning out my desk. It looks like I'll be able to fit everything, though I had to grab a box from the recycling to hold the stuff from my desk.
Oh yeah, and I turned my books in the other day for money. And got 32 lousy dollars for them. 5 of which I then turned around and had to spend on "feminine products" thanks to my body's bad timing. *gah!* They also wouldn't take two of the books, so I have even more books now, but one of them is a book I'd actually considered keeping anyway since it's from that Philosophy of Race and Gender class and has some bits I wanted to read on my own. Still feels like a ripoff to get approximately one sixth of what I paid for those back. Better than nothing, but still infuriating.
