Finals!

“Time to Cram!”

So Last night, we had hall decorating contest. My hall (1st floor Snyder) had won the past 2 years, however 2nd floor Snyder won this time and they did a great job.

The holiday season was definitely a great way to take our minds off finals. Today, however, I went into my first college final with little sleep. It was an extremely long night and I was once again dealing with stresses and such that normal first year freshman don't have to face.

My exam was for my science class, and I won’t lie; it was pretty nerve-racking. I made a study guide that had all the material we needed to know on it. This was very helpful and kind of funny because I am not normally the type of student to study in a traditional way at all, but I applied myself and it really helped in a big way.

Everyone knows finals are just one of many things people have to deal with toward the end of each semester; you just have to understand how to balance concentration and the excitement of going home. I am hoping that all the rest of my finals go well, and when I return next semester, I will be ready to go at it all over again.
