    Default OH MY! What a relief



    Some of you heard I had to write a 5 page eassy on this awful book.

    Anyways, the last day to drop classes without grades are tommarow. So I turned the ugly looking paper in thursday.

    I swear I didn't really fufill the requirments very well. Only had 2 pages, I took the 2 pages and divided it up into three sections. Each section covered a different question. 2 pages of it weren't even a a full page. I BS'ed my way through it and put my opinions on the book.

    I had an average of 78% on each test. So I needed atleast a 75% on the paper to make a passing grade.

    I have problems with his test, they are like really hard. Anyway, he game me an 84%

    Which means I have an 76% overall in the class. Now I am going to try really hard on the last test.

    Good luck! I graduated from college several years ago, but I do have some advice.

    Never in all my job interviews, have I ever had someone ask me for my college transcripts. Not once. Employers don't care about your gpa. Employers care to know if you can see something to completion. They can tell if you are inteligent within 10 minutes of the interview. All you really need to do is graduate.

    The key to graduating was to go to class. Many of my friends never understood that. My secret to success in college was to attend class. Astonishing huh! I wasn't always in the best shape(drunk, tired, both) when I went to class, but I always got my butt there.

    For some reason many of my friends didn't understand this. And the ones that repeatedly missed classes are the ones that didn't finish college. If you go to class, you will pass. Enjoy college to its fullest, because you likely won't be able to go back.

    Oh coach, I refuse to skip classes. Even knowning one time wont kill. I don't want to miss out on anything, even if its a class that I understand.

    My parents think I should skip for a week and go to Hawaii with them. Even then, I really think about Hawaii, but never skip. This might be our last time we can go.

    My dad worked for DAL, so we got flight benifits. In 04 he was laid off after they closed down the station. His furlough time is coming to an end and this might be our last oppourtunity to go. Its going to be a tough desicion.

    The only reason a beer sweats around Canada is because he's decided it will be the next beer he drinks.

    True, but I have already been there 15 times...maybe more, I kinda lost count.

    I probably should go, seeing how it might be my last chance. And I haven't been on vacation in like 2 or 3 years.
