So, you may remember my post about the first midterm in this class.

Here’s the one about the second one. I couldn’t have it any other way.

I pretty much studied for 3 days straight for this thing. There was a slight boo on the first one — I guess it could have gone better. I am feeling that this one went a lot better, which is good, but I’m cautiously optimistic only. I’ll find out for sure when we get the marks, but there were only a bare few spots where I may have been entirely making things up in a kind of sort of know it in an unrelated way approach.

You might be, I was certainly, glad to know that we didn’t have to sit through another 10-15 awkward minutes. The test would start at 7:05, it was still supposed to start at 7:10, but I think the prof finally figured out where that direction was going.

That girl. Oh, that girl.

Professor: “Here are the midterms, make sure your books are away, don’t start writing yet. Just put your name down and count the pages”
Girl < gets exam >
Girl < flips the page and starts to write >
Maybe a minute later.
Professor: “So as I mentioned, don’t start writing”
Girl < oh sigh, hair throw, hissy fit, stops writing, opens her notes and starts going through them >
Sergey < o.OWTF! >
Another minute maybe.
Brave Girl in the back: “Ok, I thought you said close your books. So maybe like she can stop reading”
Professor: “Let me repeat again, close your books, put your notes away”
Girl: “But…”
Girl < defiant sigh, hair fling, sigh, hair fling, closes book >
Sergey < Bravo Brave Girl in the back, bravo. If I could stand up and bow to you I would. But the thing is, I'm too chicken :( >
