Finals Pt. 2

Courtesy of Bits Blog

Here we are once again, the dreaded finals week. Our school consists of a block schedule, 4 classes one day 4 the next. I had tests in each of my classes today, Math, Spanish, Geography, and English. One quiz three unit tests. That was hell. But what made it worse was that I didn't get home from my track meet until 9-9:30. But I had 4 pages of math, study spanish words, geography homework 2 pages, and english reading and writing this post. (Surprise this is a grade, but I like this assignment :D) I was up until 12:30-1 am doing this. I need 8+ hours. I got a total of 5. But thankfully I was able to get some form of caffeine in me. (triple shot espresso caramel macchiato) That helped to keep me awake all day, while taking the tests. Even though I did get jittery it was worth it so I could stay awake. Normally coffee makes people not focus or jump from thing to thing in their head. But oddly enough it helps me to focus and stay concentrated. If I don't have coffee, no one is happy.

Before finals always try to get as much sleep as possible, it is easier to wake up early then study to retain the information other than staying up late and not truly understanding the subject. Always study. But if you do end up not feeling awake, try to drink coffee, or eat energy chews. But do not drink energy drinks. They are so bad for your body and health. Stick with coffee or chews.

Back to the main point, finals. They suck. No arguing they suck. If you like finals you're psyco. I hate the uncertainty to finals, as to what to study for. I would prefer a one two three list of the basic things to study. VS trying to study a whole book or 6 page packet. I want to know exactly what to study not studying useless portions that would not be on the test. Once again may the Coffee gods be with you.
