12/11/2007: "Almost there..!"

Ironically enough, I worry more on the days when I don't have finals than when I do. I suspect it's because by the time I'm finally sitting down in front of the test.. there's nothing more I can do. I either will do well or I won't, but there's nothing else I can do to affect the outcome. However, in the days leading up to the test, every moment I waste is a moment that I could be studying, ideally impacting my grade for the better.

So.. yeah. In short, two more finals down, one more to go on Thursday. And then.. I'm DONE! Well, until next semester, which will be Japanese-ful. I'm still not 100% certain 9th-13th century Japanese is exactly a good idea, but hey.. not the first time I've had patently bad ideas! Certainly won't be the last. But at least I can feel awesome about it in the mean time.

I'll also start training the new person for the place I work at in the next week, should be exciting. And then in early January.. placement testing! Gotta love it.

I don't really have a whole lot to talk about right now, just kinda felt like rambling. I'm sure I'll write something totally pointlessly depressing in a few days or so after some of my close friends return to their countries, but in the mean time.. eh, just keep on going. As a bonus for actually reading, though, I've finally attached photos from Las Vegas, London, and what I was doing this weekend instead of studying for my finals! Click on "more.." to see the action.

Mmm.. Vegas. By the way, that's Facebook you'll be accessing there, though anything else that leads to my profile should be eerily blocked (I'm paranoid.. note the lack of ever using my last name). I don't think the world at large needs to know where I work, who my friends are, and what classes I'm taking. So silly..


Not studying for finals, yeah!
