When barbecuing veggie burgers, be sure to tie your long hair back. That will keep it away from the flames, you stupid hippie.

I'm a man with a fork in a world of soup.

I hate taking them, but I like what they do for my Grades.

My school stopped taking finals this year. Now we have something called quarterlys, which is a test at the end of each marking period. Its MUCH better then taking finals and midterms.

Hee hee, I finished my finals last Wednesday and have been on break ever since. I believe I have about a whole month of Christmas vacation. Chew on that!

That's a good idea for classes that teach a lot of material, like chemistry for example. I would enjoy not having to go through 10-15 chapters of material for one test that could make or break my grade.

And yes, Douglas Brown, my vacation is a whole month( it goes up until Jan 10). You too can have month-long winter breaks when you go to college.

Oh god! My school has started the same things this year too, and they are a HUGE waste of time.

How is this for a class breakdown, 40% midterm, 60% final. When you have classes like this, you start to understand the real meaning of hate.
