Finals

I keep waiting for someone to blog, but no one ever does. I really need to find some more blogs to follow. So since no one else if blogging, I guess I will take this opportunity to say some things about my life. Finals are this upcoming week and to start things off I took my first last final tonight!

Warning, the following may contain appalling information, but hey that how I like to live my life. So in my economic systems class, my teacher decided to give us a 100 questions true or false take home final. If you ask me that is just plain rude! Who wants to answer 100 true and false questions? I mean sure I could have taken the time to look up every single answer in my book, consuming my whole night. But really why on earth would I do that when I could do what I did!

I decided it would be a much better idea to run a random number generator on a calculator simulating 100 answers proving me with either a one or a zero. On the numbers I got a one on I answered true and the ones I got a zero on an answered false. It honestly took my five minutes to answer one hundred questions! It was the best thing ever! I am really excited to see how I performed on this final.

Yes, I sure did document this for the future children! :) 

Now you may be thinking, is the girl freakin crazy? Well truth is I probably am, but I had a very good reason for doing this. Really, I was just using economic theory in my everyday life. As it turns out I really did learn something in college. See my professor is allowing us to drop our lowest test score including the final out of the three tests throughout the semester. I have scored pretty well on these prior tests and figured the amount of time I would have to spend actually answering the questions correct had no marginal benefit or basically be a sunk cost. See if I missed more than 12 questions all time spend on answering the test questions would have been totally pointless. Me knowing myself with true or false questions figured the likelihood of this is pretty high as I always seem to second guess myself on them. See this way I get to tell people that one time I basically flipped a coin to answer all the questions on my final and if for some reason I do score higher than my previous test then that is freakin awesome!! See it’s really a win win situation!

Now I just have to write a Russian paper for my Russian final due Monday and hit up three finals on Tuesday and I am pretty much graduated from college! Which has not hit me yet! College was easy, now on to the hard part, real life.
