The Final Fear

     Well it's finally in front of my face and approaching fast. I now know why they call it "he**" week. I have a ton on my plate and don't quite know where to start. I have tests in Biology and Chemistry, a Biology lab presentation and final, a presentation and paper in IS, and a final paper in English with the option to revise previous ones. It is definitely something new I am experiencing, and I have already been stressing out about these last two weeks before they even got here. It is going to be tough and it's suppose to be, and I do realize that and need to be thankful for how easy the end of the semester will be, though I don't feel the easiness right now. As I further on in my education the final's weeks are going to get larger and more intense, so I have set up goals for this semester to get study habits down that will benefit me the best in these crunch time situations because I will need them for the future. Well, back to the big plate. Wish me luck!

Andromeda Strain

First off I want to say thank you very much for the pizza it was very good! The movie days came at perfect timing for me. I needed a little break in between my classes. The Adromeda Strain was a very interesting movie overall. I was extremely interested in the science behind the discovery of the disease. It had all the parts of science that I enjoy and the methods they used during their experiments were even more appealing because I could relate with some of the tests being done, and the terms from what we've gone over in lecture. However, some of the scenes and events were a bit extreme for the situations. Such as the security lasers and the creepy music in the background when they would discover the disease. These events made the movie more hilarious than suspensful in those scenes. Nevertheless, I felt it was a great overall film for the seventies. In my opinion, I feel the book would be more appealing and intense than the movie because you could view the characters and the events in your own perspective which could possibly be more modern day.
