“Finals, AHHH…They’re coming!”

December 3rd, 2007

It is the bottom of the 8th inning and the game is tied. There are a few crucial outs left in this game that will determine the fate of the team and their future. That is exactly how I feel right now since the first semester is coming to a halt.

Like a baseball game, these next few weeks are going to be very crucial in the sense that everyone here is going to lose the social life we all have come accustomed to and be stuck inside of their rooms to study for countless hours.

Finals are quickly approaching us and planning their sneak attack. This is why I am freaking out. I hate tests because I know the material perfectly up until the very second the test is placed right in front of my face. This is why I am coming up with some sort of strategy for my study habits over the course of the next two weeks.

You might be asking “Chris, what is this strategy that you have planned?” GOOD QUESTION! I have no clue and actually I will probably not have a clue because I will not come up with a strategy even though I want to so bad.

Basically what it comes down to is what I mentioned above. Have no social life and be committed to my books. This seems like the only logical reasoning behind my question that I pose to myself. So I wonder…Will I come out of the bottom of the 9th inning successful? Or will I crash and burn and fall just short of the title that I want so bad?
