going back to ND for school. I flunk every class. The young kids are so much smarter than me. And I always have at least one final where I forgot I was signed up for the class and didn’t go to a single class.

I’m impressed that he was able to do this at his age and stage in life. It couldn’t have been easy. Quite an accomplishment.


I DID go back to school and I agree

Getting a post-baccalaureate degree is not exactly the same thing as being an undergrad at ND, but still.

Oh, and I have that same nightmare about a final in a class I forgot I had and never attended. Back in my ND days, my recurring nightmare was oversleeping and missing a final exam. That actually occurred to someone in my dorm the year before I got there. Not surprisingly, he had flunked out by the time I arrived.


I have that same nightmare

I go to the professor and plead with them to let me make up the work for the semester so I will not lose my scholarship.


Not me - I go back, become valedictorian, lead the Irish

But hey, your dreams are good too.


Yep.

I have the signed-up but never attended one once or twice a year. Usually involved not even knowing where I'm supposed to go for the final.


Yep. And I can’t find my schedule printout. *

student. For me, being on trial can trigger it.


You will stop being on trial if you stop being arrested. 😎 *
