Interesting post, Scott. The 24-year-old female is my demographic, for better or worse. I'll have to reply in time...
Speaking of the 24 year old female demographic... it is currently 8:35 pm. This exam started at 6:00 pm.
Approximately 80% of the class has yet to finish. As a matter of fact, I'm told that they're not even near finishing.
I guess I made the final too long. And I kinda feel bad about it. Sorry gals.
/Update: 9:00 pm. 11 of 20 are still in the room. Feeling really pretty lousy at this point. Contemplating bringing them chocolate tomorrow.
//Update: 9:01 pm. 10 of 20 are still in the room. Still feeling pretty lousy. Too afraid to ask how close they are to finishing.
///Update: 9:02 pm. Just listened to my entire iPod full of Podcast. Will need to download more off of iTunes. At least that gives me something to do.
////Update: 9:23 pm. Beginning to get some really nasty looks. Just realized that the 6 remaining students could likely beat me down, if they worked together as a team. I gotta start lifting again.
/////Update: 9:35 pm. Looks like we're down to 3. I'm confident that I could take them, should it go there, as this 3+ hour marathon has likely broken their spirits.
//////Update: 9:45 pm. Down to 1. Don't think she's armed. I know I can take her. Feeling a little safer. Wondering if my car is jacked up.
///////Update: 9:57 pm. Gotta think this girl's going to stop soon. It's unlikely that she'll pass anyway--so staring at a question for that 5th additional hour is unlikely to help. Just want to go home. I hope my tires aren't slashed.
////////Update: 10:14 pm. Student claims she's almost through . Going to turn off this machine. Ready to go home.
/////////Update: 10:18 pm. Thinking that if this student flunks, which she is likely to do, then I'm going to be pissed. Normally, I'm already in bed. Failing students shouldn't have these kinds of rights.
//////////Update: 10:30 pm. Student finished. Never again will I allow a student (and a failing student at that) to overstep such boundaries.
