Final Exam Due today. It is weird to have a final assignment due two days before (well, ok, one day before) the end of class. I am used to having the final stuff due by midnight on the last day of class. Sort of like the entrance to a black hole…you get up to it and when you’re ready you toss your final work into the opening, knowing there is nothing beyond there. Once it is in there, that’s it. Goodbye. Done. In a week, or less the black hole will spit out results and perhaps a few days later your grades are posted.

In this class, however, I have another day to poke around in class. In fact...knowing my team project was going to take up my entire day on Saturday, I did my final earlier in the week. I turned it in on Friday even though it was not due until today. My final is done. My assignments are done. My team project is done. I have no participation requirement. So, what am I supposed to do tomorrow? Officially, there is one more day of class…but I have nothing to turn in. Nothing due from me. I am expecting nothing from my team or my teacher.

It’s just weird.
