Woop, woop! (This is the first time I uttered the phrase even in writing)  :hug:
about time with frequency you use it in talking.

Thanks guys :hug:

I am now hitting F5 about once an hour to see if my final grade has been posted.  An A- in Engineering Design and a B in Circuit Elements and Design so far.  That is about Par for the Course for me.  If I pass Power Systems I have some big decisions to make and it will be time to start studying for my Fundamentals of Engineering exam.

Weirdly I got those school nightmares all the time until I went back to school.  I wonder if they will return when I graduate  :hmm:

I'm still having them, just with less frequency as time goes on. 

Congrats & good luck.  Just remember us when you are in power :P

Heh, I was talking with a friend at work today and we both had occasional "being in school again" nightmares. Is it common then?  :lol:

Yup, very.

My guess is that for a lot of people, exams in school (or school in general) are their first significant exposure to stress, leaving a lasting impression.

Wow.  :D

Wonder if all my dreams are common. :hmm:

Say, you guys, also get the dream you're having sex with five big black men whilst driving a black pick up truck flying Confederate flags? I"m sure we all get that one all the time.

Real Genius was a much better movie.

The other real common dream I used to have was I'm in high school or junior high and around 2nd period or so I realize I forgot to put on any pants.

Power Systems grade came in: A-.  Two A-s and a B.  Not too shabby. 

Now I need to scrape together enough money for next year, quit my job, and pass the FE exam all before class starts.
