anybody else getting murdered by finals right now?

@real genius how are you always online?

Damn, I was just thinking about that. I sit here and watch my G-Mail from 2:30 to 12:00. Really. Occasionally, I run off and play a video game or watch YouTube videos.

Anyway, I have a Biology 2 final next week. What I'm really afraid of are my IB exams next year. I have to take 7 next year, 6 the year after. I'm really worried about the ones in IB Chemistry, Calculus 1-2, and Calculus 3-4. Calculus 3-4 is deep stuff, man. I wonder what I'll take after 5-6 in my sophomore year of colledge?

That was a LOOOONG time ago. I have test equipment sitting around the lab here that is older than a lot of you guys. Also still have a few VCS (Atari 2600 as it became known later) still running.

I have an Anual Military Inspection for njrotc wensday and im shitten teh brixs at it

Well good luck on it. Spent 6 years in the Corps myself, and testing was a bit different then. Pay attention to the basics, learn a few obscure facts (do you recall the 5 colors of a military map? BAMCIS? etc), and most importantly KEEP YOUR BEARING. Do NOT fall apart, stay confident, even when you aren't. How you handle yourself is usually more important than the subject at hand.

oh, im an NS2
allready been trhough AMI
but these new ns1s arnt taking this srsly and is just getting by the class
THERE GONNA MAKE US FAIL >:O

Assuming NS1 and NS2 are rank structure, if you have seniority, you are REQUIRED to take responsibility, and get them motivated. Not always the easiest thing in the best of times, but can be quit the test of your leadership ability. As a future officer in one of the branches, you have the potential to either lead men well, or hide in the corner while others do it for you. I feel sympathy for ya, since you have no true authority to back you up, but then again you are young. That makes up for a lot.

oh i have authroity, but there stuborn as hell. but i have changed alots mind

Well good luck to you, take advantage of everything the military can offer you, it did me a world of good, and eventually helped me become an EE. I think all young people could benefit from a bit of time in the service.

i plan on going AirForce for 4 years after i get out of school
then go into game designing

Odd, every young man I have met through my daughters and in the local community wants to be a game designer. Just to be on the safe side, focus on the actual skills of programming, and hope for the game part. Just recall that most of my software guys work for peanuts. Air Force has AWESOME food!!!!! Marine Corps had shit for chow…
