( The backstory, for those who don't know it )

So far, my final exams have gone pretty well. Or so I think. I don't want to jinx it! Only one class has been graded, and that one might just be my first "A-" grade since being at SFU (which means it's been a long fucking time!).

This just proved to me that it was never Biomechanics that I failed to understand, it's goddamned torque diagrams from first-year Physics that is my comprehension bottleneck.
