You're Asian, you must be smart, right?

So, at approximately 1230 this morning, I was setting my alarm, dreading the final I had to wake up to, and getting ready for bed in general.

Fast forward to 0815 the same morning; I wake up, get confused, look at the time, and start cursing. Throwing on whatever clothes I can find, I pull a calculator, a pencil and an eraser out of my backpack, I grab Ave's skateboard, which he has generously lent me, and toss it in the back of my car. I get to school, park, start skateboarding to class as fast as I can, and of course nearly die on the way when I hit a bump while going too fast. I eventually get to class, smelly as hell I'm sure, and grab a test around 0830. I then realize I actually brought a pencil and a pen. Wheee.

As it turns out, I ended up finishing the final early, so losing 30 minutes wasn't all that bad. After the test while talking with friends about it, I realized I totally misread one of the questions and did the wrong thing. Damn.

As for good news, I got 10th in the class or so on the final project I was so worried about. This is the amplifier with negative feedback and blah blah blah. About half of the people who got higher than me in terms of score got an unfair advantage due to screwing the bandwidth of the amplifier and reducing the power consumption or cost of their circuit. This angers me.

Anyhow, one more final left, and let's hope it goes well. Today was the first day I've ever been late for a final. Let's hope I don't do such a thing again.
