One less final to worry about
My Non-Western Civilization teacher told me today that I won’t have to take the final - he told 4 people in the class who had all A’s on every other test/paper that we don’t have to take the final. So thats cool - not only am I guaranteed an A in that class, but that final was on the 11th, the day I’m supposed to get off house arrest and the official one year mark out of prison. Unfortunately I have an Algebra final the day after that, so I won’t be able to go crazy parting or anything - not that I could really party while still being on parole and not able to leave the state etc.
Not that I have any money to party, or people to party with either… Plus I have a Middle Eastern final this Thursday, then an English final on Monday. Unless I basically ace the Algebra final I’ll get a B in that class, but that class doesn’t even count towards my GPA since its basically a remedial class, its supposed to be for people who don’t make a certain score on a math placement test, but I didn’t even take the test, I knew I needed to start from the bottom to get a firm grasp on math. Barring a major bomb on my Middle East or English final, I should be getting A’s in those classes too, so on all my GPA classes I should have all A’s.
It was kind of funny, as I was leaving class today I was talking to the professor, who was a really cool guy like all of my teachers have turned out to be, and he said something to the effect that I had read/studied all of the material - when I basically stopped reading any of the assignments after the first couple weeks. I told him I probably did more talking in class than reading. I guess thats what 11 years in prison and over 6 years straight in seg well-spent consuming as much reading material as possible will get you though…
