Poll of the Day > Ryan's stories' thread

(+) Yeah! (+)

A lot of interesting things happened to me my senior year of college.



Let's start with final exams fall 2016. Finals are very close to Christmas and I knew this would be the last Christmas for me in <college town>. And there's this bar I've been a regular at for years. So I figured why not get my 3 fav bartenders Christmas presents!?

So I ordered some stuff I knew they'd like off Amazon: a blackhawks hockey puck, Outkast's Aquemini on vinyl, and a multitool.

Everything arrived the day before I had an important final exam. This was a class I skipped practically everyday. I did the online assignments though. Anyway, I ended up with a D before the final and since it was related to my major, I needed a C to pass. I emailed the professor and was begging him to pass me and all he said was "Good luck on the final".

I look at the final exam study guide and it's all vocab words they went over in class along with possible essay questions. I really wanted to hand out the Christmas presents though, so I figured I'd do that, go home, and study.

I go to the bar, have a drink, whip out the hockey puck and gave it to the bartender that likes the blackhawks. She loves it! She's showing it off to the other bartenders working, and buys me a couple of drinks that instantly made up the cost of the hockey puck. And it would be rude for me to turn down free drinks.

So I'm there tipsy and give the other 2 presents, get more free drinks and now I can't drive. I hop in a taxi and
go home. I'm pretty tired at this point so I set an alarm to go off in an hour and decide I will study when I wake up. I never woke up.


Now it's 7 in the morning and the final is at 8:30. I open up the online flashcards that another student put together (god bless him) and I go over them in between getting ready and commuting to the classroom.

I get the final and it's all fill in the blank with no word bank. This portion of the test was 30% of the grade and the essays were 70%. So I don't remember a lot of the words and make some up that sound right and move on to the essays.

The essays were super easy! Luckily I did go to class during the beginning and learned about utilitarianism (this was an ethics class). All the questions were whether something was ethical or not. And I'm like "heck yea this is ethical cause it benefits the majority of people!" for all of them.

I turn in the essay and go home to sleep. When grades were sent out, I got an A on the final and a C in the class and passed that semester!!!

The end.
