Finally, another semester is over. I feel like a career student. I’m not sure i have any intention of actually graduating, I just like spending taxpayers’ money on my tuition (thanks taxpayers!). In an ironic twist, I’ve finally accumulated all of the prerequisites to *officially* declare myself a business major, and this is probably my last semester of school (due to the possibility of my move to Florida).

Anyway, I’m just waiting on my final grades now. I only took two classes this semester, Accounting II and an introductory Geology class. Great fun.

Okay, so the Geology final wasn’t exactly great fun. Not only was it comprehensive, but I didn’t study for it. At all. To add insult to injury, the professor comes into the class at 15 minutes till 5pm (the final is scheduled for 5pm) and tells everyone that he has “an errand to run” and that if he’s not back by 5pm, please just wait for him. Apparently this “errand” was making copies of the final exam. Oops. So he finally rolls in to the classroom at 5:20pm (noting that the final was scheduled for 5pm) and then happily proceeds to extol the virtues of saving money for retirement. I just want the damn test! So anyway, he spent 10 minutes talking about the importance of saving for retirement, and even managed to get a comment in about how people whould not live in Texas their whole lives and everyone should see the world. We finally got started on the final shortly after 5:30pm.
