You and me both. :P

There's a reason I want to do my master's degree somewhere warmer.

@Grimview I understand the feeling completely as I already noted. Oh well good luck with that, may you find a place with mild winters.

And now that Spring Break is over,...the homework comes crashing down,...seriously Mid-terms after the break??? What the hell?

I like midterms after spring break. Gives me time to study for them during the break.

What I don't like, however, is midterms just before the finals period. And I mean a week or two before the finals.

Who studies over Spring Break?? That's where you go somewhere and let the brain loose,...that's why before is better,so it's out of the way.

I think midterms about a few days to a week after spring break would be desirable, because it gives you a chance to readjust to school and prepare.

This doesn't apply to our college, though. We're a quarter system, where winter quarter ends at spring break and afterwards we begin spring quarter.

Who studies over Spring Break?

Well, I do. But that might be because I have a lot of catching up to do.

In unrelated news, midterms at 6pm are awesome.

Yes and if you can maybe have a snack during, or at least coffee, or at least that helps me stay awake during I'm not sure about other people.

They're probably not going to give us a spring break next year.

They're planning on renovating part of the college over the summer and they want us out of there as soon as possible, apparently. I think a bunch of people are losing their shit over it. We'll see what happens by next year, I guess.

I got spring break in six months. Cry me a river.

[up][up][up][up] I did just that. I was actually leaving to get my lunch when I typed that.

[up][up][up] I don't like to drink coffee. I take some medication to help me concentrate*

and I'd rather not see what effect it has with coffee. Plus, I can barely stand the smell for some reasons.

[up][up] On the plus side, your summer vacation starts earlier, no? I say that's a fair trade.

@Mister C Oh I don't like it much either, though no worrying about complications with medicine on my part, it just tastes too bitter for me. But other people use it for a similar purpose.

So I got waitlisted at Brandeis.

What's the likelihood of being taken off the list and accepted, if a couple months later?

What is Brandeis and why a couple months? When does the class start?

Side note: next week is finals for me but this week was pretty bad.

Brandeis University. I hear they send out letters to folks on the waitlist in April and May, at least.

EDIT: For the record, I'm applying to the school. Not for a class.

My assigned Calculus teacher SUCKS. So now I'm switching to another class, but thing is, this one's advanced more, so I have to bridge the gap by myself. In two days.

I decided to withdraw from my science class. Wasn't passing and I didn't want to risk getting a D or a C.
