Exams and Extras
So since Tuesday I have written three exams with only one day off in between. The first was french and while I was definately more prepared for this one than the last one, it was still painful. I am hoping for a miracle and I end up with a B something in the class. The one the following day was Forensic Psychology. The questions for the multiple choice were alright but the short answer based on five articles assigned at the height of essay frenzy were nuts! Oh well... I think I answered them correctly. Finally on Friday at 9am I wrote my first year global history exam. It would have been a lot easier if not for the 93+ definitions I needed to know but I think of all three it was the least painful. Tomorrow I write my last exam which should not even exist in the first place since its for a seminar class. It is on some bullshit theory and frankly I want it to just DIE!!! Oh well... will be going to go study for it soonly and at least it means that I am done after that.
In other news, I did not get into any of the teacher's colleges I applied to. Apparently this year had more applicants than ever. York University told me that they had 6500 applications for only 720 positions, how crazy is that? I did get on the waiting list for Western and Queen's though and I am still on the waiting list for Grad school as well so things are sort of up in the air at the moment. Guh... I would have liked to have things all figured out by now but alas no. Oh well I suppose when my exams are over I can actually dwell on this but right now I don't have time.
Apparently my parents were worried I was distraught about my news from the teacher's colleges so yesterday my mom took me out shopping. I got new clothes, a movie, a new CD and was taken out for so much good food...AMAZING!! I like it when my parents try and cheer me up :D
Finally, the paper for my seminar while handed in already has been bugging me a bit. I really really really want to do well on it so that the mark in that class can counteract my horrific French mark but I don't really know what to expect. I have only handed in one thing to this prof thus far and it was an outline...you cannot base anything on that! Should prove interesting I suppose but I just hope he is lenient and gives me a good mark since I worked so hard on that 5000 word monstrosity!
I cannot believe that as of tomorrow around 5 I will officially be done my undergrad. It is so surreal. Sure I would like to be writing it with the knowledge of where I will be next year but still. It has been such a long ardurous journey for me to get here its so hard to believe that it is over...I thought the day would never come. Not that I did not enjoy my time here, on the contrary it has been the best years of my life by far, but there were so many hoops of fire I had to jump through these last five years that to have that part over is unbelievable. Now all that remains is the rest of my life...what a scary thought!
Alright back to the books I now go!
