the countdown begins...

Doesn't it seem that right around this time in the quarter (any quarter), you start counting down until break... wishing that finals were over... no energy to study, yet you know you've got to or else...
or is it just me?

Oh that time again.

Thanksgiving break (and a nice dinner), rainy season, preparation of finals, school over and a hectic holiday season. And 2004!!

I realized how fast time flies...

I remember the first day coming to Cal Poly Pomona and now, it is already my third year.

My English professor (Innerst) told us that studies have shown a HUGE drop in motivation after the 5th week...

I cannot stop thinking of finals and my term paper

Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday. Major headache for deadlines. And thank GOODNESS next week is Thanksgiving holiday. I need some turkey, gravy, mash potatoes, stuffings (yum), yams, cranberry sauce and a glass of wine to make it a holiday. No more top ramen.

The countdown began...for HOLIDAY shopping. w00t!!
I love the Christmas season and the upcoming Thanksgiving dinner. Not really worried about finals yet.

I actually feel a bit more motivated now... I think because I finished my second Ochem midterm

But now I have to study physics, ugh!!!

But thank goodness for a four day weekend

JPWRana · 11-23-03, 11:43 PM

you'll do fine... don't sweat it.

MandyMindy · 11-24-03, 05:39 PM

I'm basically done for the week, one more class on Wednesday.
And I don't have two of my classes on Wednesday. The professors wants an early holiday. Good luck on physics.
