... one week before finals,





god help my grades.

How are you guys blocking out distractions before finals this semester? It seems like there are A LOT more this time than usual.

I'm doing a horrible job of blocking out distractions. My grades aren't very good either. I just can't seem to force myself to sit down and work, even with a final tomorrow night and Tuesday morning.

And it doesn't help that I haven't been to class since the beginning of October.

get this, turns out it pays to check the syllabus every now and again during the semester. I was going to my one class (easy as hell) because I thought participation was 20% of our grade... turns out its 20% of our grade but FOR A DIFFERENT CLASS. Marketing of all things requires participation and to get it its 100 out of the possible 500 points. I have gone to that class MAYBE 10 times (including tests). Serves me right for not getting my stuff straight but damn 20% is a bit much I think.
