One more exam to go!
My accounting test was ridiculously hard. I seriously ended up guessing on about 10 problems. I also started panicking halfway through when I realized I had no idea what I was doing! Wow! At least I don't EVER have to take another accounting class!

I took my English test this morning and it was actually the easiest test of the year. She gave us an extra 15 minutes and I think that really helped a lot with organizing the essays and what not.

Haha my MIS exam is on Saturday morning and I'm hoping it's not going to be too bad. It's not cumulative so that will help a lot with the study time. I only got 3 hours of sleep last night so I spent the whole day today just resting but I should hit the books soon to get a head start.
Ok guys! This is my last entry for the semester. I'm not sure who actually reads this but have a good break and see yall in '08.
Of course I'll leave you with a video. My friends probably have too much time on their hands but this is pretty funny.

where's my coffee?
I don't know about you, but for some reason I can't really study for a test unless I feel the pressure. So like I have an accounting exam tomorrow night but I probably won't get myself to truly concentrate till later tonight or tomorrow morning. It's horrible! I've got 2 chapters done so far though so hopefully I'll finish the next 2 soon today. And then study the other 10 after that, haha!
This cold and rainy weather is not helping either. It makes me not want to go on campus, which I should since I get too distracted at home.
I have to keep reminding myself that I'm done after this week! Finish strong! Maybe that will sink in later tonight too.
ACC 312 - Wed Night
E 316K - Thurs Morning

Update from LA
So you may be thinking how irresponsible I am for coming to LA this weekend, but don't worry! I brought all my studies here and I'm about to head off to a local Coffee Bean with my sister to do some hardcore studying. I also got some nice hours on the plane ride :)
Anyways...the Spice Girls were AMAZING! All my childhood memories came back to me. It was so nostalgic. They also sounded really good together (no they didn't lip synch)!
Ok I'll make a proper update with pictures when I get back to Austin tomorrow. Time to go study!
Spice up your life!

Dried contacts
All this work on the computer is drying up my contacts. Just thought you should know.
Anyways, I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't have a test this week. I do have a final presentation for Acting and a lot of little homework that are due but no paper/pencil test. It's weird how that worked out but I'm not complaining!
So for our final presentation in Acting, we've been split into groups of 4 and our group chose to do a spoof off of the show "The Bachelor." Since the finale just aired a couple of weeks ago, we thought it'd be fun to make fun of all the "reality" that goes behind it. It should be fun but we've been spending so much time working out the details. We want to perform our confessionals live in front a video camera that will be projected on the wall so that the audience can't physically see us. We have to work out the kinks in the transitions for that tonight. And did I mention we have 2 costume changes? Oh dear.
I'm really behind on reading for my classes. I haven't opened my accounting or MIS book for this unit or read a single story in its entirety for english. It's probably because I've been reading so much for my history class. I have to take 2 more tests in one week for that class.
So on Thursday I'm leaving for LA for the Spice Girls concert! I'm so excited! Especially to see my sister again. She'll probably spoil me with yummy food :P Of course I'll spend my good 3.5 hours on the plane trying to read all the things I just listed above. But I think I got it planned out. I'll try to make sure I've read all the english texts by the time I get back to Austin and then I could review for it after my Accounting exam. For the accounting exam, I'll just study all three days I have before it. Since MIS is last and it's noncumulative, I won't start studying for it till after English. I hope that works out!
Whatever, I'm so ready for winter break! Although I have NOTHING planned, it'll be nice to be unproductive for a little bit... just kidding! I'll probably catch up reading my books that I bought over the summer but couldn't finish before school started. I also need to catch up on all the movies I haven't seen this semester. I can't wait!
Good luck everyone with their tests this week. Hang in there... 3 more days!
And I hope she's acting..
