6:57am: I awoke early this morning in order to finish the lab report that I was far too tired to bother with last night. It is now printed out and only needs the chemical reactions written in- which will be a small task, since I have already written them out on scrap paper. *Sigh.* There is something so much more satisfying about typing up a lab report in lieu of scribbling it into a notebook and photocopying it. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the computer does not share my tendency towards chicken scratch!

At any rate, today will be a busy day. I will have an extra help session with my calculus professor (in his new office) this morning, followed by a review session for Chemistry, followed by a quiz in calculus, followed by lab, followed by a three-hour Chemistry exam (which will be, of course, followed by my falling into an exhausted pile on the floor). Then, of course, there is the long drive home. I am hoping that the day goes by rather quickly.

Luckily, Friday will bring about the last day of classes before vacation rolls around.

3:23pm: Five and a half hours before I am able to go home. *Sigh.* At least two and a half of them will be spent sitting around doing last-minute studying, which is a fairly low-key activity compared to lab (which, by the way, was an utter disaster-luckily, I know how to fake my way through lab data!). Then, weather permitting, it will be time for the long drive home.

I am a bit nervous about the exam, though I have heard from two sources that it is not at all bad. Here's hoping!
