Oops.

The student realized - a bit too late - that this indeed was NOT rocket science.

Timing

That moment you have to high five your friend because you both waited most of the semester to do your laundry, you got to the laundry room at the same time, and there were enough machines for all of both of your loads.

FYI

Just so you know, "I had an ice cream headache" does not always count as a legitimate reason for a class absence.

Observations

The class got the sense that Prof was going to be a little prickly today.

Knowledge

No one was sure why, but it was VERY important to the professor that the class know the difference between a lectern and a podium. Once a semester, what came to be known as the "Lectern Lecture" would take place. That particular class meeting was often not very well attended.

Balance

After a few weeks of fast food, streaming shows, working on projects, and only leaving the house to go to class and work, you might want to mix it up a bit by getting outside and visiting nature.

Or at least getting outside to take out the trash.

Planning

When you turned down every social invitation for the weekend because you're behind on the three papers and two projects due on Monday and THAT'S the weekend Mom drives into town for a surprise visit.
