I have a post describing this last weekend in progress on my laptop. When I go home, I'll try and post it.
Finals are over!!
Introduction to Literature II - Monday
Miss K. gave us, on Friday, four questions to choose two to answer. We could outline a 1-2 page essay on each of those. I chose my first one and outlined it on Sunday. But by the time I was done with it, it was too late to write the second outline. So I decided to wing it. We also had a 1 page essay about which classic we were affected by. I wrote about the imagery of the Great Divorce and how I was able to see, hear, and touch Lewis's Heaven and Hell. I entered the test with a bit of apprehension, because essay tests and I don't get along very well. I sat down with the three books and my laptop and proceeded to write two essays. I can't say that the structure was the best, but I did get most of my points from the books and well sourced. So I'm not too worried. (What's funny is that Miss K. just walked in and handed me my final. A on the 1 page paper, C on the first question paper, and B+ on the last question. B on the entire final. The question which I winged was the one that got the better grade. *wry grin* I'm thinking a low A for the class. At least as far as my mental estimations go...)
General Psychology - Tuesday
This was a chapterexam over two chapters. I had read those chapters before, but went ahead and read them again Monday night. Tuesday morning, I sat down in class rather confident about the test. Dr. O. gives multiple choice tests and if I've seen the information I'm usually able to get the right answers. Randy and I were joking about how fast we'd get it done. I was almostdone and was going to tease him about not finishing before me,when, just as I finished the last question, he got up and took his final to the teacher. I finished just seconds laterand turned in the final at the same time. *grins* Nothing like a little competition. (I had lunch with the RDs, RAs, and the Student Development committee on Wednesday. Dr. O. was there and he told me that my class grade was a 98%. I was happy!)
Small Group Dynamics - Wednesday
The final for this class was a presentation of our problem solving group's proposal and analysis. My group was last, but since we had the problem that dealt with rules and whether EBC is effectively teaching the standards behind the rules, we were up there for a very long time. We gave the problem, the solution, and then discussed the group dynamics. The Q&A time went on for 45mins after that. Amazing... This is the one class that I'm not sure about what grade I'm going to get. I got Bs on both Midterms, but the rest of the work should have been better. *shrugs* That's okay, this was a very informative experience and I'm very glad to have taken that class.
Beginning Greek III - Thursday
That would be this morning. I studied last night for about two hours. I would have done more, but my brain was fried. I then went to Josh's sister's new house and the four of us (Josh, Cassy, Josh's friend, and I) stayed the night, woke up early, and came back to campus. Mr. B. had taped David's and my finals to his office door and I grabbed those at 8 and we did our final. It wasn't too hard, though I didn't remember a couple words. I did well though.
And that was final's week. I'm currently finishing up in the computer lab and then will be grabbing a bite to eat, cleaning up, and then going to graduation. Brandon snagged me to hand out programs, so that's what I'll be doing. Plus there's at least two seniors that I want to be there to congratulate on graduating. I'll go to a party or two tonight as well.
I'm not exactly sure when I'll leave town to go home for a week, but it'll be sometime this weekend.
(BTW, I signed up for two external studies. College Algebra and Corinthians. Should be some very interesting courses. I hope to be able to buckle down and get them done in record time. We'll see what happens...)
