This is the most glorious time of the semester. The sound of books being opened, the sight of students frantically running their pens across the paper as they take more notes than they have ever taken before, the smell of brains frying as the teacher cram packs loads of information that they didn't have time to reach earlier on in the semester.

Yup. It's finals time. At least for a majority of colleges where I am. For some reason finals hasn't been that big of a deal when I got out of high school, but I still prepare for them nonetheless. Even though it isn't as hectic, I still find myself running around like a crazed maniac that is in desperate need of a soft couch and a controller in my hand. I tend to find the finals hype way to.. well.. hyped! If we didn't make as big of a deal as we do, I don't think finals would be as stressful.

What are some of your tests, projects, etc that are coming up? Are you stressing? Did you procrastinate? Are you not going to show up because you know that even if you do you're in way over your head and you're going to fail anyway?

What are some ways you study/prepare for them? Do you even study? What are ways that help you relax and make you stress free durnings finals?

This is open to ANY age group that has some sort of finals that are coming up. I remember even having "finals" in Junior high.



My Finals- 7 page research paper and a final for English, Physical Anthro Final, Piano finals (both oral and performance), martial arts final where I have to perform a series of kenpo styled blocks, attacks, throws, landings etc. and finally a comprehensive Humanities final that is full of wonderful low resolution pictures that I have to identify.

I know my work load is waaaaay under a lot of yours, but it's still finals am I right?
