My detailed fantasy life has the weather becoming very warm over the next few days and the 12+ inches of snow melting quickly. I’ve got my spring\/summer theme ready to launch and as soon as I see grass again I’ll be hauling it out. You never know how long the nice weather will last around here.<\/p>\n
In the meantime I need to hunker down and spend lots of time prepping for my exams.<\/p>\n
I’ve reviewed my course notes enough times to know that I’ll likely forget it all the minute I step inside the exam room. Test anxiety is something I still haven’t managed to get a handle on. I’m one of those people who work extra hard on all assignments in order to have the best possible grade going into the exam. The day before the exam I can recite facts, figures, and theories off the top of my head but the minute I put a pencil into my hands and start writing I black out. Usually I can remember most of the theory. I just seem to have difficulty remembering the specific terminology. Of course, the minute I leave the exam room all the terms I’ve forgotten will return in a rush.<\/p>\n
My final course pack for the summer semester arrived today. I also received a response from my adviser regarding future courses I need to complete the degree. After summer semester next year (yes, I’m looking at course details for 2009 already) I’ll have finished all of my core (required) courses and can concentrate all my energies on filling out my transcripts with interesting psych courses. I have 2 more history courses to complete – oh yay! – and am considering signing up for one that begins mid-way through the summer semester. It’ll start in July and end sometime in the fall. I think it’ll make for an interesting few months when it comes to course load but many courses are only offered once a year and delaying some of the core courses may result in my commencement being delayed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
