It is finals week, that terrible mix between being bored-out-of-your-mind and stressed-beyond-belief. Half your classes have nothing going on, while the other half have a test worth ten to fifteen percent of your grade. It imposes a sort of stress related emotional whiplash. On top of this is the anticipation for the summer, because it is so close, but still slightly out of reach. The entire practice is singularly frustrating. I find it unfair that the faculty and system expect the student body to be able to focus on academics and test well under these conditions.
Or maybe I'm just feeling uncharitable because I spent two and a half hours on a test this morning.
