  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

How did you all take it when/now that you're/when you'll take/taking/took finals? I've slacked off a little bit and pulled a couple all nighters so I'm dead right now after finishing a paper, and needing to do another, while having a biology final to study for also accounting the final for a class tomorrow and dealing with kids later today..

In other words...prayers please. :study::waaah:

I did the college thing, and will do it again some more (Masters) I've always hated putting all the work in when in the middle of going through it, but once it was done, I felt a great sense of accomplishment. So the key for me is focusing on the goal instead of the suck at the moment. My military training always has helped me in this area. I've always loved education and the college environment, plus it helps when there are cute women around too to keep me on my toes, lol.

I never was able to retain anything by studying all night, so I did my best to keep during the semester then studied for several days leading up to finals. I know; I'm boring. :p

:doh:sheesh, can you get any more straight edge than that :p lol j/k

I was always the dude pulling the all nighters and burning the midnight oil up to past 3am, it was not pleasant, but somehow I got the job done.

Well, it was engineering, which is pretty straight-edged, so if I didn't know how to do what needed to be done by the time finals rolled around there would be no point in studying anyway. ;)

Classes such as history, English or some random elective wa a bit more troublesome for me, because the way it was taught bored me. Reading, reading and more reading what someone else wants you to read. :sick:
