That week is coming up people!! It is finals week next week and I have some duesies... how the heck do you spell that? I swear I haven't been able to spell since I went on a mission... I have Organic Chemistry, Molecular Biology, New Testament (my teacher is crazy smart and his tests are SUPER hard), and American Heritage (sick class!!! blahhhhhh). The first one is this Friday, and then I will have to take one every day after that until the next week. Have I started studying?? Heck no! I can use these next few days for fun and enjoyment, right? I have three FULL days before I have to actually take a test, isn't that the way it works? Am I sooo incredibly lazy that I can't even take an hour in a full day to study for an exam that is coming up??? SERIOUSLY. What do I do with my time?? Today after work I 1. Played dance dance revolution with my roomate (which I beat him even with the crappy pad ((I am the biggest nerd EVER))) 2. Went to Walmart for no reason at all (my roomate needed socks) 3. watched Simpsons.... and now I am blogging like a madman. Am I sick? Do I need some sort of medical attention? Do you know anything about my condition from your medical experience Ike? I really have a bad case of the procrastination. Either that or the stupids.... but either way I am enjoying my time. For now I will bask in the sweet juices of not having class.

Finals are here... but am I?

Zakereena - That's a super cute dimple pic. What a hottie! That sounds like what I used to do- except I'd usually wait until about 1 hour before the test and then go through my notes like a wild woman. I always thought I was a bad tester, now I just think I was a bad studier (is that how you spell that? Is it even a word?). Good luck next week!
You have a case of spring fever. I totally went through that. I did exactly what you're doing. They give you "study days" but do people really study? It's more like days off before you go crazy and cram before your test like Jaime wrote. Everyone but the straight A students do it.
Now you can see why Zakkie won the biggest dimples in the beautiful baby contest. A cute new mother was totally devatated when her darling little first child wouldn't smile big for the judges. Zakkie smiled big and won their hearts, as he has all of ours. Tiffany must be trying to make a good impression on you, me and dad with all the cleaning efforts.
Medling mom's advice to Zak:
Get off your duff and start studying!
hahaha you wish mom! I have actually had a pretty non-eventful day today so far... I have cleaned the whole kitchen and front room, though! They were DISGUSTING! I am excited for the days after being married and before having kids... that will be a time of clean bliss.
It's "doozies" and yes "studier" is a word. (That was a hard one, though. I had to look it up.) And mom, you spell "meddling" with two d's.
What's that? Yes, I AM a big nerd.
I always procrastinated and still do. I think it's just part of being human. It makes me feel better to think that, anyway.
I say keep up the hard "Dance Dance Revolution" work. One day you will conquer the world with your dancing skills!
Ahhh. The time after being married and before having kids...that IS the greatest time. And you can be clean if you really want to be.
What are we talking about? Yeah, those three days were great! I remember rock climbing, trail running and hot tubbing until 4 in the morning. Live it up! Unless you want to get into medical school.
I say enjoy the days, study at night. There is nothing like a spring day on campus at BYU. Don't listen to the nagging guilt, wipe away your conscience. (spelling, Mandi? I am proud of your editing abilities!)
I was just being dumb and now that I read it again, it's super annoying. Sorry.
Mand - I enjoyed you editing - you and dad can't help yourselves. I especially liked Heidi's editing of Zak - it was a funny zinger edit. Good job Heidi, it made me laugh.
How did your first day of finals go?
My first day of finals went just fine. I took a 133 question new testament final which consisted of many questions that looked like this:
A.
B.
C.
D.all of the above
E.two of the above
and then others that would have
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.A and D
F.B and C
G. None of the above
I mean are you kidding me???? That just about killed me. I was angry the entire time I was taking it. Seriously, religion classes at BYU are NOT COOL.
Today I am taking my American Heritage final... wish me luck!! These are the tests that I always do the worst on.
I am the QUEEN of procrastination so I saw nothing wrong with your logic. This is my logic. I have a super messy kitchen, it needs to be cleaned. Well I certainly can't tackle it without a diet coke, so I better get one. I only have cans in the house, I really don't like cans so I need to go get a fountain drink. I put on some clothes and get cayden dressed and head out. Chevron is right by me but I don't like their diet coke mix (I am a diet coke snob) so I need to go to Wendy's. While I'm driving I remember I MIGHT be out of my special sink cleanser so I better stop at the store. While in there I decide to get some groceries plus I need to get some stuff for dinner. I finish shopping and head to Wendy's, I get my diet coke but decide to get lunch while I'm at it because the kitchen is too messy to fix anything. Plus there is nothing in the fridge. I get home with lunch and groceries (about an hour and a half has passed) we sit down for lunch. I am watching Judge Judy while I eat so I can't start cleaning until Judge Judy is over. Once done, I realize it's time for cayden's nap so I get him down, which takes about 45 minutes with his goofing off. I get downstairs. It's time to tackle the kitchen. Crap. I just finished my diet coke and I can't start cleaning till I have a diet coke... and they cycle starts again. Am I normal? no.
Lisa - you crack me up. I do remember alot of days very similar to yours. Now I don't cook so the kitchen is rarely a mess.
Hey Zak- Hurry up with those finals so you can come blog with us again. Where are your priorities?
P.S. I thought religion classes were kind of a break on the brain. What is this professor thinking? Is that just how it is at BYU?
Lisa - haha I'm glad I'm not the only one who does that. The other day I was out of garbage bags, and I couldn't start cleaning without them. Somehow there were many steps involved with going out and purchasing them, and by the time I had them, the day was over and the cleaning mysteriously never got done. I also try to time my lunch just right to justify my Judge Judy guilty pleasure.
Zak - GRRRRR BYU religion classes! I remember them all too well. (Sadly, not the info, just the annoyingly hard tests.) I always thought I was at a disadvantage because I hadn't gone on a mission. It's good to know someone like you (well-versed in the Word) is struggling too. Well, I'm not glad you're struggling - you know what I mean.
Good luck on your tests! Are you done now? Are you still alive??
My religion classes were some of my hardest at BYU. I got a C once in a New Testament class. The teacher was known for being tough and always reminded us "You're not being graded on your testimony!" Nice. Not reassuring though.
Jeni - that teacher sounds so familiar! I think I had him. That is so lame.
I just had a flashback to another unpleasant religion class experience. It doesn't relate, but I'm bored, so oh well. There was this guy in my class that kept sitting by me no matter which area of the room I sat in, and he would "help" me look up scriptures. He was an all-knowing RM, see, and I was just a lowly commoner. Bless him for trying to help out the not-so-knowledgable like me. It angrified me SO much, but he never took any of my hints - the rolling eyes, the look of KILL, the running out after class to avoid talking to him anymore.
Then one day I ran into him at my apartment complex. Just my luck - he lived there too. After that, every time I would go to the laundry room, he would show up like 2 minutes later and start talking to me. It was like he was stalking me. Super creepy!
He must have taken my hint at some point, though, because that's all I remember. And I haven't been killed yet. So he must have moved on.
Aren't you glad I told that story? Me too.
Mandi, that's funny. He totally liked you but instead of just asking you out or something he decided to charm you with his mad scripture and laundry skills. Looser.
