I have been shopping for christmas gifts, and I think that I am done.  God help me, I hope that I am done.  I completely tapped out financially and it's going to take me some to time get myself back on a financially stable footing.

For those of you completely unaware, I hate this semester.  I hate the teachers, I hate the classes, I hate the assignments, I hate everything about this entire school... I just hate hate hate hate everything.

For the 19 classes that I have had to take to get my undergraduate degree in Finance, I have gotten:

A's - 4
B's - 7
C's - 3 (Strategic Business Mgmt, Literature of the Civil War, Statistics)

If I can get 4 C's in this semester I will be so happy, because I just want to be done with school.  I don't want to go to school anymore.  I don't want to go to school full-time and work full-time anymore.  I don't want to incur any more huge student loans.  I don't want to leave the house at 7am and get home at 10pm.  I don't want to feel guilty for not spending every waking moment on the weekends in the library.

So yeah, that's how I feel.

I have managed to rack up $65,000 worth of student loans in 2.5 years.  Do you have any idea what I could have done with 65k?  The places I could have gone to, the things that I could have done?  I could have gotten into the Playboy Mansion's Holloween party for 20k.

So there you go, I know that those grades aren't the best, or even close to the best... but it is a huge step forward from when I first went to school where I thought that getting straight C's was an accomplishment.

Whatever, I just want that stupid diploma.  My semester ends in 3 days... 3 days.  I am taking Wednesday and Thursday off of work, so that I can do the following:

1)  Complete my paper for my Independent Study
2)  Study for my final in Personal Communication
3)  Study for my final in Corporate Finance
4)  Complete my take home final for Corp Finance

Those 4 little things, and I am done with this stupid semester.

Then one final class in January, 3 nights a week, for 4 weeks and I graduate.  I just have to pass the stupid class, which happens to be a Religion class - Movies and God... after that I graduate.

I graduate, put my house up on the market, take a $40,000 loss and movie to somewhere in Europe.

I have been wanting to live in Europe for a very long time now.
