I haven't done exams since 1988.

Do you still get that nagging feeling about this time of year that you have missed an exam.  That feeling has lessened for me.  But I still get it.

No, but I do get a vague "I should be starting school now" feeling in September that hasn't quite gone away...

Another glorious University of Texas at Austin semester in the books...well almost my grades have not been posted yet.

Now is when I look around and try to remember what I did with my time back when I was not in school.  Come December I will be done.  I am sure I will be hired immediately with pay that will make Ide cry.

I'm out of tears for myself.  I wish you, as a non-retard, the greatest of luck in your STEM career.

I still have occasional dream where I wake up and realize that there was a law school course that I've forgotten to show up to even once, and it's April! :o

Not a feeling, no. But I still get the dreams.

Yeah, I still get the dreams too.

That's the one I get occasionally, I wake up knowing I have a final exam but I haven't been to class all semester so I don't even know what room to go to take the test.

Yes...that's the one I get a lot.

Yep, I get all those dreams. I think they are nearly universal.

Back when I was in college I got "dreams" like that a few times when I was awake.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

Great job, Valmy!! And so happy for you that you've only got another six months before you're done! :hug:

I managed a B in my one class this semester. *sighs* I'm taking MS Access online this summer, which should be a nice, easy A, except that it's going to be mostly projects, and I hate projects. Then, two of my hardest classes at the same time this fall. :ph34r:
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...
