Weekend!

Woohoo! It's Friday! Done with work and school until Monday at 9am! Next week I have my first final... on Thursday. Next week is really just my last week of classes before finals, but one of my professors rightly believes that we will have too much stress in finals week so he's giving the final earlier. This weekend is going to hopefully be spent studying a lot. I have a long todo list before finals week.

Work, Wealth, and Income Distribution
*Read 5 chapters
*Finish Study guide
*Exam THIS Thursday at 9:30am

Environmental Economics
*Read 4 chapters
*Exam next

Economics of Developing Countries
*Read chapters 12 & 14
*Look at study guide (will hopefully get on Tuesday)
*Read chapters again
*Read chapters a third time
*Exam next Thursday 2-4pm. (REALLY need A on final and haven't done anything all semester)

Politics of California
*Read chapters
*Do study guide
*Do project due THIS Friday
*Exam next Monday 12-2pm (C+ on final to get an A-, B+ on final to get an A)

Anthropology
*Read chapters
*Read chapters again
*Go to lab this Wednesday and ace quiz.
*Exam next (REALLY need an A on the final here too if I want an A in the class)

Somehow I doubt I'll even make a dent on everything I'm supposed to do before finals... before the finals! But David has a hemtenta (take home exam) for the next week, so that should free up some of my time to study... if I actually can force myself to!

On a completely different topic... I have an interesting learning curve. It took me 4+ hours to do the first of two basically identical projects (just different data because it's for two different hospitals). The second one I put together in 40 minutes. I now understand pivot tables in Excel. They're actually quite interesting. You know you enjoy your work when you come home and want to play with things such as Pivot tables... AFTER work on Friday! Maybe a nice room with padded walls would be good for me? All of this studying and stress has obviously gone to my head.

Jag tror också att du kommer att klara dina prov med bra resultat, och som du skriver så har jag min hemtenta så jag kommer inte att distrahera dig lika mycket den hära veckan.
