Yeah, I rounded to only 3 decimal places.  So what?

Wait, you’re more concerned about what those numbers mean?  Well, let me enlighten you.  I took 5 classes this semester and 4 of them have finals.  My first two finals got done today but really, I’m not “done” with the first one.  You see, that class has a two-part final.  The first part is what we did in class and the second part is a take-home assignment due Thursday.  Which is when I have two more finals.  The take-home component is worth 1/3rd of the total grade - same as the midterm and the in-class final.  So technically, I’m only done with 2/3rd of that class.  Add that to the second final I took today, which completes the class, and you get 1.66666666666…. which I rounded off to 1.667.  I’m an engineer, bitches.

So, I now have two full finals and a take-home final to do for Thursday.  That makes it 2.333 to go.  Then it’s time for the long-ass summer holiday.

PS:  A typo in my textbook sent me down the wrong path for all of last week with the take-home assignment.  I’m now having to redo it.  Good times.

This week just doesn’t want to be done. There’s still one essay due before this week is out. Ugh. I’m currently chopping and changing my essay to make sure I say all that I need to in 1200 words or less. It’s very limiting - piezoelectrics just cannot be discussed adequately in four pages of double-spaced text.

Anyway, today was the second-last day of classes and my last two classes of the semester are on Monday. Then a study period of just under a week before finals start. My exam schedule this semester is simple: two exams on May 12 and two on May 15. The two on Thursday are back-to-back. Good times.

In other news, I need a new belt for daily use. Just thought I’d throw that out there for all you belt junkies.
