Yes, there were a few attempts at humor, but it was easy (I hope). A few of the questions were almost the exact same ones I used to study.

Jesus Christ, what a disaster of a day.

It started off in business class, when the class broke up into groups for an activity, and I was pretty much ignored in my group. Then, I learned that my sandwich, the only sustenance I get for 9 hours, was made on rotten bread (my fault for not noticing the fungi). Then I realized I had forgotten my ruler for Math class, and when I called my mom to rectify the situation, she did not answer. To make it worse, there are lots of people around me who are sniffing, which really annoys me.

I have math in half an hour, and I have to take a test in that class. I really don't want to go.

Somedays...seems best to stay in bed and read a good book(or come here and amuse the monkeys)
The" sandwich situation"..which from now on will be refered to as" the great sandwich debocle" reminds me of the joke about ..."whats worse then noticing a worm in your apple?"...."noticing half a worm in your apple"...

Go home and crawl into bed after school and dont come out until the stars change(Today would be a good day to skip playing the lottery...you may end up owing them money.

Hey werbert
Be grateful you ain't as dumb as me. I enrolled in a graduate program that was built around group projects, they threw me out because I did so badly, two years later they let me back in, then they threw me out again for the same reason. These days I avoid people.

I thought all aspies were supergeniuses.

Sounds like we've got a spy in our ranks. :)

Well, tinky, you were right. THis day did finally end.

When I told my mom about the sandwich, she drove to McDonald's to get me some burgers and fries.

Aside from today, it has been a good week. I got a lot done at work, received some test scores that were higher than I expected, and my family has had at least two pieces of good news this week.

And Monday's my birthday, but I have to go to work and class that day. :(

Ouch! Today in my business class, we were doing an activity that required that some tables and chairs be moved around, and a chair fell on my little toesies. :(

My first college chemistry professor explained to me why lectures were 50 minutes. Because thats all your brain on average can take without a break.

I believe that. My psychology professor said the same thing, and you know the old saying, "If werbert's psychology professor and TheMachine1's chemistry professor say it, then it must be true."

So you study accounting Werbert? I do too :)

I work as an accountant as well. I'm quite tempted to throw in the towel of both and start with something new next year, maybe IT.

Are your toesies OK?

The March of Death is almost over.

In a little under 17 hours, I will go down into the trenches one last time and engage in combat with the enemy once more.

At 7PM, eastern standard time, I will take my accounting test. I have a 94 average in the class, and I have been studying since saturday. I am going to get an A.

At 1PM, Thursday afternoon, I will take a business test. My average in that class: 106. Grade I need on my last test to get an A: 39. Yeah, this one's in the bag.

At 6:30 Thursday, I will take my last test. Math. Grade so far: 94. Total time spent studying for all tests: 2 hours. Math, if we were in prison, you would be the subservient one in our sexual relationship.

Accounting, business, and math, I have put up with your crap the entire semester. Now, I will completely destroy you. You will be stains on the pavement of academia when I am through with you, just like all the rest.

As Al Bundy said, "Let's rock."
