Got Balance?

Ah, two midterms down, another two to go, throw in a paper and I'll be set! And they all come to a big end on Valentine's day...oh fun!

Actually, I just wrote my stats midterm tonight. It was pretty easy, except I had to write it in a lecture room, where you only have those half tables thingies attached to the side of the seat (you know what I'm talking about). Yeah well this is fun, when you have a calculator, pencils, an eraser, your student card, a scantron sheet, cheat sheet, your exam, z-score distribution sheets and a work sheet all in a space no bigger than your textbook.

I tried to solve this problem by also using the half table thing beside me, as well as blancing papers on my legs, arms, and any other uselful part of me that could hold something. As it turned out, I didn't really use my cheat sheet because it kept getting buried under things, I gave up trying to use the work sheet, and just did all my quick calculations in the book, as for the other junk who knows what happened to it.

Either way, I'm glad it's done. And here's hoping V-day comes soon- I'll finish my stuff and get to eat lots of chocolate! Mmmmmm. Oh and two weeks after that I turn the big 2-0. Scary.

...older than you! Don't worry Neil, you're secret is still safe with me ;)

And I'm not old. I'll be 20 years young...or something like that.

Um...yeah, but I shall live forever!

Which kinda reminds me of a thing I read in my psych book where most uni. students overestimate their death by 5-10 years. (compared to the average natural death rate)

and hey you aren't that much younger than me...
