Done with this semester

This semester has been a true beast for Derek. As we were in California he was feeling confident that in the next 3 weeks of actual classes he would be ok, and then it would be over! Well he came home yesterday from classes to find out that his hard class just got a lot harder. He does a class summary every week for this class as homework. The summary last week was 3 pages long and Derek said he felt good about it. He got it back yesterday and got a 70% on it...... a class summary that is 3 pages gets a 70% oh man I for sure would have failed this class! Then the teacher asks the class how they did on the last test. It was a 2 hour timed test and Derek didn't finish 3 questions because of the time limit. He knew he did bad on it but he hoped the teacher would understand because of the time limit. Many of the other students said the test took them 4 hours or so, but my husband honest Abe stopped at 2 hours. Well the teacher got up in front of the class yesterday and told them that everyone got a C or less on the test and that everyone would be retaking it!!!!! Derek found out that he got a 64% and the girl that took 4 hours to do her test got a 62%..... Absolutely CRAZY! I guess we can know say that we feel the stress of being grad students. I hate seeing Derek like this! He felt he was almost done and now more and more things just keep piling up. Last night he stayed up super late and then this morning I got up at 7:22am. I looked and Derek wasn't in bed so I thought maybe he took the light rail to school. I thought just incase i should go see. Sure enough Derek was asleep on the couch still. It takes us about 10 to 15 minutes to get to school and his class was at 7:30am. I swear he can not caught a break! As we were driving to school I asked him what happened to his alarm. He said "I have no clue I set 3 alarm times to wake me up"  Yikes! I am so grateful this is his last semester of classes. We just have to make it past these 5 weeks!
