I'd dance, but you won't be able to see it. I'd sing but, ditto. That being said, I wish you the best of luck - good luck!!

Thanks! Even a string of conversation is nice... I do better when I multi-task! I really like the topic of the class, so it isn't as horrible as it could be, but I'm still worried because the professor is kinda anal retentive so I'm worried about how his exams will be. (This is the first one.)

I got so uptight as a freshman in college over a Zoology final I swear I almost had a breakdown. The teacher was a real Sadist, and was always threatening to flunk people. The class was full of pre-Med students and after about 2 weeks, I wondered what the hell I was even doing there. I studied my ass of for the final, and trodded to the final exam, took it, and was convinced I had flunked.

The teacher let me know about 4 days later I was one of the 6 people in a class of over 75 students, that had recieved an A+ on the final (and I aced the course, too). So just remember, even if you think nothing is "sinking in", it might pay to peruse your notes, etc. anyway, and see what happens. And try to relax.

Ah, neat. What sort of things do you have to know for the exam?

Principles of scientific anthropological study, basis of the evolution of religion, theories of connections to religion and culture, magic vs. religion, methods for studying the effects religion has on culture....

Well then you know you are a decent student, so you will most likely do okay. Good luck anyway.

Somehow, I get the feeling that you're less than excited about the cramming session ahead. :P

On the positive side, Ducky (who finally went to sleep!) gave me permission to pounce him and see what happens when I'm entirely done studying. :D

Short of the end result... yeah, less than enthused about studying.

Eh...cramming never works. I find reviewing notes daily, making flashcards along the way, and getting a good night's sleep works much better overall.
