  Hey everybody. How's it going?

*sigh*, whelp, I go back to school tomorrow. My exams start Tuesday morning (with Civics & Economics, then Scientific Visualization). -_-' I gotta' say, I'm really worried, especially about that first day. Sci. Vis. will be no problem, but just like Mr. Dickerson said, the Civ. & Econ. exam is going to be a bitch.

You remember how I explained that our study-guide was comprised of 82 massive questions, and that according to Dickerson I was supposed to do 20 and have the other two members of my group also do 20 each, then e-mail each other with the answers?
Well, my teammates haven't e-mailed me yet. I had my questions done and e-mailed on Friday, but I keep getting a weird HTML style return message saying that they "don't have an account on Yahoo" or what-not. So, my only hope was for them to e-mail me, so I could successfully send a Reply with the answers I've been trying to send.
But naturally, that didn't happen.
Even worse, I don't even know the names of the people in my group, so I can't look them up or something (we had to scramble and get our groups together in about 15 or 30 seconds before the bell rang, and that time was taken up by frantically trying to exchange e-mail addresses). All I know is the useless address they gave me, so my only hope now is to run into them at school tomorrow (but, it's a B Day, so I doubt I'll see them at all since Dickerson is an A Day class for our group).

Getting this massive study-guide done by Tuesday was a total pipe-dream of Dickerson in the first place. We should have had far more time to work on it, and a way to check our answers (the next time we're in Mr. D's class is the day of the exam). Plus, getting it done would take all weekend, and we have 7 other exams we need to study for!
But, now I probably won't even get the study benefit from the study-guide, in addition to the fact that having only 20 or 30 questions completed on it is going to hurt my grade.

I took a break from studying to comment on ElvesAteMyRamen's newest submission (please check it out by clicking here if you haven't already).
And...I'm taking another break to type this.
....
Needless to say, I'm having trouble concentrating. -_-'

I'm really, really starting to worry about this, guys. I usually make great grades and my parents still make my life suck. I can't imagine how far my life is going to go down the tube if I screw-up my exams. If I don't do as well as I should, they may even nuke my access to The Otaku or something.
These things count for 20% of our semester grade. CMS is a fool for making it count so much, and for giving us less then a week to review and catch-up after Winter Break.

I could really use your support and prayer right about now, guys. A single thread is separating me from utter failure.
Please pray for me tonight, tomorrow and throughout the week, OK? I'd really, really appreciate it.

Thanks guys, and I'll hopefully see you tomorrow.
