Whoops!

[Note: I composed this last night. It refused to post. I realized reading my Friends page this morning that I never posted it, so here it is.]

Well that was a close shave. I was eating dinner and having a nice chat with Bennett about Hilbert spaces and quantum computation, when at precisely 6:33 it fortuitously came up in conversation that I was in Physics for Science Students I. At which point Bennet asked, "Don't you have an exam?" And of course I did; it had started at 6:30.

Once I remembered to actually _go_ to the exam, it was mostly rather painless, though I don't like the methods I used to get two of the answers (and I especially didn't like the fact that my units came out funny on the last problem.) We'll see how I do; other people didn't seem to think it was that difficult.

But whatever I get, it will be better than zero. Thanks, Bennett; I owe you one. Though Akiva seems to think a lame excuse would have gotten me a dirty look and a make-up exam....

But I'm perfectly happy not testing that.

I can beat that. Freshman year, finals week, I thought my Physics 3 final was in the evening. It turns out that it was, in fact, in the afternoon. However, Priya happened upon a friend of hers who was also in the class, and who happened to be on the way to the final. I got there just as they were handing out exams.
