    Assertn, any lawyer who DOESN'T pull the race card is a crappy lawyer. It is obviously one of the great remaining sociological divides that can exploited to cast various lights on people based on something that almost always has little to nothing to do with the crime.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    I've only got 2 left, Philosophy and Government. I'm ditching my last one (chemistry) 'cause I can escape the class with a B if I don't take it.

    Good luck everyone else.

    I finished my Intro to Business exam and my Comp. Sci. exam. I still have English, Business/Internet Politics,
    and PreCalc. The thing that sucks is I need to take PreCalc for Business next semester [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

    COLLEGE :D

    Today, yesterday and tomorrow are the three worst days I've ever encounterd in college thus far.... mostly due to my own damn procrastinations...

    Yesterday: Take home prelim due at 6PM (12 pages long, single spaced, regarding US Social Policy)

    Today: 9AM: Philosophy Final: Knowledge and Reality. Epistemology, Plato, Bertrand Russell, Liar Paradoxes, Ayer, Inductive reasoning, Grue, A priori knowledge, existence of external things, among other subjects making an appearance on that final

    Today: 6PM (but just handed in [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] ) Social Policy project. Projecting the effect on equity that the proposed change to Social Security might have (for, well, not much discussion of, but good information for anyone who actually cares, see http://forums.gotwoot.net/mess...amp;keyword1=security)

    Tomorrow: 6PM 2 things.
    First is a 8 page short story written entirely in Italian. Si parlo la lingua, ma non sono bravo.
    Second is a 12 page paper about the effects of food on Italian culture. I haven't started this one at all yet...

    Tuesday night and wednesday: BOOZE FINAL!

    Hehe I feel your pain. I've been doing nothing but papers for all my classes. I probably wrote 100 pages this semester on over 20 books.

    Wow, I guess I've had it pretty easy as far as writing goes. 2 8-page papers (one over existentialism and the other over Japanese art) and 3 2-page papers (all for Philosophy 301). Not a lot compared to some other people...

    Edit: @masamuneehs: I just went over the earlier posts in this topic, I have a cousin who studied in Bologna. Are you still planning to go there next year?

    mmm ... finals, eh?

    I've only got one final, but it's in a class called compilers. In this class, we had to write a compiler. The process of writing a compiler was 40% of the grade. The final is another 30%, with the midterm being 20%, and a single homework being 10%. Looks like I can pull a C, with a B on the final... so lots of studying, the whole second half of the week.

    But more importantly, I've got a paper that's due wednesday in my other class. And that's not gonna be pretty, 'cause I've barely even started constructing an outline of it, and it's not going to be an easy topic to turn into a decent paper.

    Hah, suckers!

    After four years of the most brutal exams ever (usually 5-7 exams per semester) I finally have the most awesomely wonderful exam schedule (yay thesis courses)! I had one last week, and my only other exam is today. It's linguistic morphology, only worth 30%, and the only reason I'm still studying is to try for an A+ in the course. After today, I'm freeeeee for the holidays!

    I'm dropping my current course after this semester. Unfortunately I have to finish an exam first to reel in my "points of merit" [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
    After that I'm gonna work for a year. Bad pay, but hey, I'm so fucking tired of books.

    ooh compilers, damn.

    When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man's convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man's brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle. ~Elizabeth West, Hovel in theHills
