Homestrech!!

Wow, what an unremarkable Wednesday. My entire day consisted of studying for my last final exam of the semester (and year) and procrastinate studying by surfing the net, watching Da Ali G Show on YouTube, and listening to music. After inserting and discarding so much information into my brain the last couple weeks, it takes…

Gingerbread Houses

One of my favorite activities when I was young in elementary school was building gingerbread houses. I really looked forward to it and it always brought smiles. I can’t remember exactly, but I think 3rd grade was the last house I built, and that’s too bad. Little kids are building gingerbread houses around the country…

One more to go

The Patents take-home marathon is now over; I tried my best, once again, and I am proud of my work. Now there is only one more test left – Trademark and Unfair Competition on Friday at 9 am! This time I have a couple days to prepare, but at the same time, I’m running a…

Two down

This morning I took the 4 hour corporations exam. It’s now over; I know I tried my best, studied hard, and learned a lot – I think that is what’s important. Now I need to somehow motivate myself to study for my next exam, an 8-hour take home Patents exam tomorrow. I think I am…

Studying

A rough one for the Seahawks today. They are really shooting themselves in the foot with turnovers – it’s been a problem all season. Also of concern is the inability of Shaun Alexander to produce. Other than his 200 yard aberration in the snow against Green Bay, he has been a non-factor this season. I…

One down

First final complete, three more to go. Now it’s time to start studying for the next one – a 4 hour corporations exam bright and early Monday morning at 8:30 am. It definitely does not feel like a weekend, but the George Strait tunes are helping 🙂 Exercise: yesterday I squeezed in a back workout…

Crunch Time

With one day of studying before finals begin, I am beginning to realize the time constraints and gravity of four exams over the course of one week. I don’t mess with stress, but I must admit the S-level is rising for me a bit. Oh well, it will be over next Friday at 12 noon….

Peak Chair Bliss

Oh yeah! I am going to be skiing these slopes on Whistler Mountain in less than a month!!

Last Day of Classes

Classes for the semester (and 2006) are over. I had my last class this evening. I celebrated by hitting up Chipotle with some friends for a tasty burrito. Aside from a review session Friday morning, its all finals from here on out – with Friday the 15th circled a billion gazillion times – the day…

Fidelity by Regina Spektor

Above is the video for the song “Fidelity” by Regina Spektor. The song has been getting some airplay and when I heard it for the first time, I wasn’t sure what to think of it. After all, it’s not the typical music genre for me, but hey, I listen to all kinds of music. Anyway,…
