BF56! What's up!
My summer break starts on May 11th; I think I'm not sure. It's going to be great; it was just a rough semester. You know what's funny I'm doing better in O-Chem than I am in Microbiology which is what I'm majoring in. It's so frustrating. What's cool though I got a 47/150 on my O-chem test and because our professor has a ridiculous curve that grade is actually a C. Just 5 more weeks to go; I think I can hang on.

May 8, got you both beat!
Of course, I really only have two weeks of vacation, cause once I get the official papers and pick out a date to fly down in May, it'll be slave labor at Walt Disney World for the rest of the summer!

That's awesome, I remember the curves in O-Chem lol. So how have you been Zol? Yeah it sucks having a hard major and friends who are in insanely easy majors, it means they never usually call because you always have to say "No, I have to get this and this done" lol. Anyways, I'm sure you'll do fine, still working at Sams Club? To everyone else, good, glad to know I'm not the only one with summer fever lol..

Yeah, in O-chem the national average for those test is below a 50%; maybe they should try teaching it a little better. I only have one friend who goes to a community college that has an easier major. My other friends are taking Mechanical Engineering and they're actually doing well but those are science majors as well and no science major is easy. That's pretty much because you have to be proficient in other science classes instead of concentrating on classes directed towards your major. I'm a Microbiology major but I still have to take physics and looking at it deeper I can understand why but it still seems unnecessary.
I am still working at Sam's Club but I'm going to schedule an interview with some one about a laboratory assistant position here today. I hope that goes well because I don't want to work at that god forsaken store anymore.

I get out on July 27th, and then it's only 6 weeks of summer break here in Germany. But we get more time off during the school year, so it's not that bad.

I graduate on June 8th. (

) Last day of exams, however is a few days before...which I'm estimating to be around June 6th. But, (thank you, our school system!) we are able to be exempt from an exam if we have a 90 average and up. (As well as the whole absence policy....thing. But I'm not worried about that). So school might end even earlier than that for me!
I'm still counting down until graduation, however!

I think I have everyone beat. My last final is May 5th. I can't wait. And like Escapay, if I get into the DCP I will only have a few weeks of summer before starting work at Disney World, which he refers to as "slave labor," so that should be... great. lol.

School ends for me on May 31st. This will be the first time in my entire life that I've ever gotten out in May. We normally get out sometime between June 2-8. Not much of a difference, but hey, at least I have all of June off this year.
36 days left...but it couldn't seem farther away.

Zol..those dang O-Chem classes are bent on failing, I don't even think the professors could pass their own tests sometimes. Lol, tired of sams? Still living in Loveland or did you move to Ft. Collins. Just think next year at this time we'll both be getting ready to graduate!
