Winter break (sigh of relief)

Oh the glorious winter break is almost upon us. I plan on sitting in my pajamas, watching movies, and relaxing. The semester was quite busy - paper upon paper and endless amounts of research and reading.

What do you plan on doing? Please share!

Final Exams

It is that dreaded time of year: final exams!

How to you cope? Do you cram? Drink a lot of coffee?

Do you have any test taking tips?
