I have exactly one month and one day to go.

Ouch. I have 23 days left. @_@

That's how it was for me until this semester (and even still it's partially like that, but it's almost all gone). The upper level classes are when it goes away and college actually becomes somewhat challenging. Especially for Accounting.

It is ridiculous how much material I am being "taught" is part of regular high school curriculum. At least one fourth of my algebra class have had algebra 2 or higher already, yet we are stuck in a room for two hours every Monday and Wednesday being retaught. No wonder I often have a migraine at the end.

Oh, I know; I agree entirely. I think our public schooling system is a joke in some regards. It's really a shame.

I have exactly one month and one day to go. Ouch. I have 23 days left. @_@ It's mainly my Tax Planning class that's killing me. The rest are at least manageable. But then again, I'm a perfectionist so I'm trying to stay as close to a 4.0 as possible and our school recently changed to the +/- system---so now I need a 94 or higher in every class to maintain it. Trying to get a 4.0 myself. I can't really afford B's. I'm pretty much in the clear except for math where I have an 83% I need to kill the next test and the final so I can bring it up. unfortuneatly they're within a week of each other so I dunno.

That sucks. I always hate having to catch myself up like that.

Good luck with it!

Luke, what's Scar Symmetry like?

I need to hear the new Zu album. Oh Santa, fly swiftly.

I think I shall watch Pink Floyd Live at Pompeii while waiting around.

Can someone link me to prog studio photos thread please?

The Gumbo Variations is pretty saucy too!

They're Melodic Death Metal. Growls with clean singing. Good musicianship. You'd probably like Holographic Universe. hmm..
