I suppose it is better to be overprepared for a final, although I shouldn't care how well I did on my final final. The professor told us it would be mostly essay and take 4 hours. It ended up being multiple choice and lasting 2 hours. I think my senioritis came last semester though, as this semester was one of my most studious and most attentive. Maybe spring semesters are easier to get senioritis than fall semesters because the summer is so close and graduation is really a end-of-spring event. Nonetheless, my 7.5 years at USD (minus one) have come to an end. I started out as a small boy in room 333 of Maher Hall. At the end of the jouney, I am now a small boy living in a dance studio near Little Italy.
Here are some of the memories:
Freshman year in Maher Hall: Going to TJ with Eric and the Hawkins brothers
Sophomore year in the Vistas: Editor-in-Chief and formal in Vegas
Junior year in Italy and PB: Coming home to parties at Parker Place and Madeline
Senior year at Santa Clara: Our Christmas card and that house
1L in Tustin: Balboa Peninsula and getting my Civic
2L at La Mirage: Homecoming festivities and NYC
3L at Hazard Center: The fires and a brief addiction to a video game
3.5L in dance studio: Alaska and Ireland
It was a good run. I at least doubled my earning potential (hopefully) by obtaining a law degree. I did not choose my first degree wisely. I did, however, make many great friends (in undergrad - I didn't really talk to anyone in law school). I did not find a soul mate, like many people did at USD. But my time will come sometime, somewhere. Nearly 1/3 of my life has been spent at USD. And all of the life that I do know has been spent in formal education. After the bar exam I will enter the full-time working world. From what everyone has told me, it is not that great.

I've always said that when i become rich, I'm going to donate funds to build a monument/ shelter/bathroom for people waiting for the buses for greek events at USD. It will sort of resemble the weird interfaith shrine in front of the JCP. Still in conceptual phases, the monument will include bronze statues of baby hercules, paul in his "costume" that somehow always involved a wife beater, andrew holding an oversized can of skoal, moiseff chasing a nondescript blond girl, and myself in wizard cat gear.
For USD memories, you forgot to include when Jeff Sirota puked all over my comforter after Howl at the Moon freshman year.
CONGRATS for finishing... but Sophomore Year Part A was actually spent in the Bahias...
