Regarding tests

My first clump of tests just came up this week.

Monday: Foundations of Econ
Wednesday: Principles of Microeconomics
Thursday: Introduction to Psychology

I got the grade back on the first one; I made a 94, having misinterpreted one question and gotten partial credit for another.
I just took the second test; it was similar to the first one in many respects, this being the beginning of the course before the two classes diverge a whole lot. This one was more intensive, though. I think I still did well.

I've heard frightening stories about the philosophy tests for this professor. What I've been able to confirm so far are true. That the study guide is a disorganized, wall-of-text nightmare is all I will say. This class is my nemesis.

Also, happy Chinese New Year. a Chinese group has a booth here in the SAC, with some cool stuff about Chinese characters, Chinese chess, and fried rice. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to get an Asian dish with proper sticky rice around here - I haven't seen it in the dining hall for the better part of a month, and they didn't seem to use it here. It was still good, though.




Off to get back on the network (somebody changed the password on me) and study for Philosophy.

Regarding Maternal Hints ;)

Wait, I have a blog?

Anyway, not too much has been bloggable, except I have a cluster of tests. As of 4:00 today, it will be two down, and the horrible one to go. Class in 20, so I'll squeeze a post in.

So here's some random pictures:

Dr. Hulsmann, who I've gotten the chance to talk with one on one, and went to his lecture on the national debt.
