Ranger's Blag

Can you smell that, folks? It's the smell of finals week.

Well, not quite yet. My philosophy paper on the problem of evil is done (which was pretty simple, since said problem doesn't really arise for me. Now I have only a 3 page paper on Marlow's scheme of values in Heart of Darkness, and then on to finals, starting Thursday.

Speaking of finals, I have a Saturday morning final. Screw this crap.

In any case, I'm not much worried. My gov 210 final is more of a second midterm, and as long as I do alright I should get a B without much problem. It doesn't matter how I do on my Humanities final at this point, since my test average is literally 98% and I've gotten As on all the papers. Philosophy is the same sort of deal, and the professor gives us a study guide with all the possible questions on it. That leads to Bio 110. Of all the finals I have to take, I am most worried about Bio 110.

Some backstory on my professor: He's been asked not to come back to teach here next year. This happened last semester. As a result, he doesn't care. He canceled 8 of our classes. That's roughly 33% of our class time, gone. He hasn't covered a majority of the material we've been tested on. His lectures are mostly irrelevant, and he spends most of his time talking about random kinds of reptiles, making jokes about other kinds of science, and calling Republicans parasites. His tests are multiple choice questions. This is worse than an essay, because it would seem that his sole purpose in life is to make questions that will trick you.

So yeah, I have a high C in that class as of now. This final is not going to be fun.

Also, I'm playing video games again, for whatever reason. I'm almost done with the Soviet campaign of Battlezone, and am 2/3 done with the American campaign. I am 3/4 done with Rebelstar: Tactical Command. I have started, on a whim, a hard mode file in FE 8. This should all be happy fun times.

Anyway, that's about the size of it. See you round the forums.
