Midterm Venting

**HorseTechie** · 02-27-2002, 05:52 PM

That time in the semester is rolling around, and I thought to stick my neck out and give everyone the chance to growl and grumble, cheer and rejoice about the torture they're enduring.

Me...? I'm studying for a masters degree in New Media, so 'midterm tests' don't exist here. Nope!

The prof's just assign projects for us to do every other week. Right now, I'm in a group that's making a 30'second commercial for the 2002 World Cup. The four of us came up with this really funny plot. If I can I see if I can show it to you guys later.

But right now... I have this fun research paper on digital special effects. I'm anaylzing Jurassic Park right now. Weee! (I ain't being sarcastic either!)

**azure turtle** · 02-27-2002, 05:54 PM

Hey, that sounds cool, HT! As for me, I got a calculus mid-term tomorrow, a chemistry mid-term on Monday, and all kinds of other things going on (lab reports, homework, projects, reading). UGH! I hate work!! And the quarter system is like a double-edged sword.....At least I know I can visit the Technodrome and relax with some friends!

**HorseTechie** · 02-27-2002, 05:59 PM

*shudder* Cal...calcu...calculus?

Ehh... now this Power Point presentation I also have to give on my Digital Efx doesn't sound near as bad!

**azure turtle** · 02-27-2002, 06:01 PM

Yep, I was stressed out a little earlier, but I've just had some coffee! And the Technodrome calms me down a bit, when no one's trying to pounce me....
*looks around, nervously*

**HorseTechie** · 02-27-2002, 06:03 PM

heheh... you may be safe from Kali for a lil bit at least!

BTW... what did you say you were studying for? Engineering?

**azure turtle** · 02-27-2002, 06:07 PM

Ya, I'm trying to become an electrical engineer, though I don't know if I want to stick with this major. I may change it after I get a chance to think about it during the summer. The only problem is, I wouldn't know what to change my major to.

**HorseTechie** · 02-27-2002, 06:17 PM

Hrmm... well, go with what you like! Communications? New Media? No wait.. you don't like computers... hrm...

*Skeletoncrew* · 02-27-2002, 06:18 PM

Good luck with your tests Azure! May the farce be with you! Oh, and the force too.

**azure turtle** · 02-27-2002, 06:19 PM

LOL!! Thanks, SC!
And oh, don't worry 'bout me, HT! I'll figure something out eventually. But thanks for the suggestions! Later

**HorseTechie** · 02-27-2002, 09:18 PM

*comes back after chopping up a couple octupi for dinner and tweedling with research paper some more*

Mm.. yeah.. whatever. My dad was an engineer type, so I know the income is a definate plus! Good luck with those nyarly tests, dude!

...calculus AND chemistry, together! *shudder*

**azure turtle** · 02-27-2002, 09:51 PM

And thanks! I'm gonna need some luck if I wanna do well.
Ohhh.....octopi sounds tasty right about now.
*drools*

**Shredder** · 02-27-2002, 11:21 PM

Lucky you, HorseTechie...getting to study Jurassic Park (one of my favorite movies) while I'm gonna be taking Psychology and English midterms.

Ooooh...Psychology and English! Sounds good to me! Much better than the ones Azure is taking.

**azure turtle** · 02-28-2002, 02:15 AM

SeaThreePeeO · 02-28-2002, 10:36 AM

Midterms? Eh? What? *Cultural gaps opens up and swallows Nikki*

School those were the days *Sigh* Now if only I could go back!

<~~~Must be oldest person here!

**HorseTechie** · 02-28-2002, 11:52 AM

*looks at Nun*

Nah.. I believe I'll be the oldest, come March 2, at 27 long years.

I'm actually in for my Masters degree. Bascially, that's like making your boring ol undergrad degree a little more exciting! I found out I couldn't do anything with a BS in equine science, sooo.... new media here I come!

*stops to think* Shredder studying psychology and English... not good, not good at all! How could the Turtles outsmart him then? j/k!

**azure turtle** · 02-28-2002, 01:07 PM

Heh heh heh. He'll be more powerful than the turtles would have ever imagined

**Kali** · 02-28-2002, 01:31 PM

March 2nd, HT? That's like, Saturday! Or am I having trouble with the calender again?

**azure turtle** · 02-28-2002, 01:48 PM

Oh, we should throw HT a b'day party! There will be much rejoicing throughout the forum!
*does the happy dance*

**Kali** · 02-28-2002, 01:51 PM

Oh, definitely.
