Midterms, midterms…as unbelievable as it is, this is the first semester ever at Gustavus that I have had midterms in every one of my classes. This week feels just like finals except I still have to go to class and I only get a two-day break afterward. But, hey, at this point I’ll take what I can get. And I can happily say that I have one down and “only” three more to go.Â
At least fall break should be halfway relaxing. I say halfway because though I will be escaping home to Montevideo for the first time in three months to see my family, I will also be cramming…for the GRE! Yes, I will be taking the GRE on Tuesday, only one short week from today! Why am I not studying right now? Good question, I’m just hoping that the occasional studying I’ve been doing since July and the intense studying I will be doing this weekend are enough to get a good score on the Verbal section and a non-embarrassing score on the Math section.   Â
Well, enough procrastinating — I must get back to work. Have a great Fall Break everyone and take pleasure in the fact that this semester is all downhill from here!
