@ Heather<\/a> – I’m going to be working at the same company that I’ve worked at for the last… 3 summers (… wow, has it really been that long?) I’d mention the company name, but it’s not like a nation-wide company or anything so… However, I will be doing data entry. Lots of it. Like I don’t already spend enough time on the computer, right? However, perks to knowing<\/em> that I’ll be working mostly in an office setting this year means that I have an excuse to get a few pairs of dress pants and a few blouses (… I’ll budget)… (… Do I need an excuse for clothes shopping?)<\/p>\n

Quick poll<\/strong>: Do you pronounce ‘data’ as ‘day-ta’ or ‘dah-ta’? My inquiring mind wants to know!<\/p>\n

Anyways… I had my psychology final today. I woke up at a little bit after 5am, left at 6am, got to school by 7:30am. My exam was supposed to start<\/em> at 8:30am, but they signed us in. Individually. Checking ids and faces and all that. The exam didn’t officially start until 9:10am. Then we got to write until 10am only (50 questions, 50 minutes). Then we had to line up and hand in our exams, getting checked off again<\/em> before we were allowed to leave. My psychology prof (for second term) is paranoid<\/em>, as you can tell, of cheaters. Anyone caught turning over the exam early (… there was a COVER PAGE<\/span> where we had to read over, fill out the appropriate information and sign!) got their paper taken away. Anyone saying anything<\/em> after the 50 minutes were up (even to ask one of the TAs something!) got their paper taken away. Only one student got their exam snatched away – after that everyone was way too paranoid to do anything much beyond filling in the bubbles and breathing.<\/p>\n

My chemistry exam is tomorrow, so I’m just taking a break from that before getting back to studying. I’m doing some more practice problems and a practice final today, then seeing where I need (more!) work in. Oh boy. Shall see how that<\/em> exam goes!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
