When we got back to the apartment we pretty much just crashed out. Sunday morning it was the usual routine with the guys and then back to the apartment for breakfast and review for pretty much the rest of the morning and early afternoon.
I gave it up about 3 and just went to zone out until it was time for supper. I heard Paul and Cam pull in.
"It's that time again Karl."
"unhuh."
"Karl!"
"What!"
"Time to take a break and get downstairs for supper."
"Yeah supper, right."
"What's got you so worried Karl? You don't uasually stress exams this bad."
"I'm afraid I've missed somethings this year with all of the shit that has been going on."
"You haven't missed squat lover. Just review and take it easy."
So it was downstairs for supper and I had to give an account of the meet to the Castanzas,which was liberally embellished by Paul.
Once supper was over and the table cleared, Paul and Cam were on their way and Karl and I were back upstairs.
"So you getting back to it Karl or are you going to relax a bit?"
"I think I'm going to relax a bit. Stressing out isn't going to be a help."
I sat down on the couch and pulled Karl into a snuggle as we sat and watched a movie, after which we decided to go to bed, but not to sleep.
Karl and I pleasured each other for about an hour or so before we actually crashed out.
5:30 got there much earlier than either one of us wanted. Regardless we were up and out and our laps were run with the guys. It was back to the apartment and getting ourselves ready for the day. Classes were a simple review today all around. I was given Wenedsday off for study. I went and checked the car over and then headed home. I got something going for supper and pretty much zoned out other than keeping an eye on our food.
Karl rolled in and I had supper ready to serve.
"Feeling better after class reviews today Karl?"
"Acutally, yeah. I didn't miss any of the high spots that were reviewed today in any of my classes."
"Good, so just skim it all tonight, or do tomorrows classes and stop stressing."
"How'd your reviews go?"
"Piece of cake. I'm pretty sure I'm good to go. Did you get hump day off?"
"Yeah I did, why?"
"Just thought we might go out to dinner tomorrow night before things get hectic."
"Sounds like a plan to me,Riskins?"
"Positutely, and a stop at the mall."
"You should buy stock in the toy stores company."
"What makes you think I haven't already?"
We sat down and ate our meal and Karl went to reviewing for the next day. I just moved away and let him get to it as I didn't need to review anything for the practicum.
When Karl had enough we called it a night and crashed out.
Tuesday was bright but with a little chill in the air. Regardless we headed over to campus and got our running in with the guys and it was uneventful. Back to the apartment and fed and showered Karl was off and I did a quick review of my imaginary portfolio. When it was time I headed on into campus.
It was the usual 15 minutes and reviews were done,mine being the last once again.
"No changes Mr Sawyer?"
"No Sir."
"Then I'll see you next year. Be safe."
"Thank you sir, you to."
So other than jogging I didn't need to be back on campus until Friday morning. With that much time on my hands I was probably going to go nuts. I headed on over to the rec center and did a general workout for a change. A little time in the pool and then the whirlpool.
Once I was showered up and had checked the car over I headed home and got ready to go out to dinner with Karl.
When Karl came through the door I could tell he was frustrated.
"What the hell happened Karl?"
"One of the professors wasn't able to make it to class today and they had a sub reviewing the material. Trouble was though this guy had no idea of the subject matter."
"So you just hit those notes a little harder Thursday night."
"Yah just about the only thing I can do."
"Go get showered up and changed. I'm hungry."
Half an hour later we were on our way out to Riskins. It was fairly busy tonight and we saw a few familiar faces. Karl and I got a table off in a corner tonight and a waiter we hadn't seen before.
"Good evening, I'm Patrick and I shall be your server this evening. Can I get either of you a cocktail this evening?"
"No thank you. We are ready to order however. I'll have the 16 ounce New York Sirloin,medium with baked potato with lots of butter and a diet coke."
"Dressing for your salad?"
"Thousand Island."
He turned to Karl.
"And for you sir?"
"The same but with vinegrette."
"Very good, I'll be back in a moment with your drinks and salads."
Dinner, as always, was good and we even indulged ourselves with cheesecake tonight.
A quick stop at the mall and then it was home for the remainder of a quiet evening.
Wenedsday saw our usual morning routine and then it was home. Karl got right to reviewing his notes from all of his classes for his Thursday exams. I skimmed my notes for Friday and did check out the practicum portfolio and didn't make any changes to it.
We had a light lunch and Karl got right back to it until supper. I stayed quiet and left Karl alone. When the time came I quietly went about getting our supper ready. We ate and afterwards Karl joined me on the couch and relaxed.
"Had enough for one day lover?"
"Yeah if I haven't got it now, I'll never have it."
We watched tv for a bit and then sacked out early.
Thursday we were up and out for the morning routine. I stayed on campus after our jog as I was going over to the rec center for a general workout.
This early in the day the place was pretty much deserted. I made my round of the machines in the workout room and then hit the pool, which again I pretty much had all to myself. A little whirlpool and then I showered up. I did check the car over before I headed home. Once there I changed into some regular clothes and headed for the mall one more time.
The mall was pretty busy this year and it took me a while to find a place to park. I finally did find one and then made my way inside. I picked up a few more things for Karl and his family and then made my way over to the toy store.
When I got there I was pleased to see that the Toys for Tots box was pretty well full. That didn't stop me from going in and getting a few more things for the kids. I stopped at the food court for a quick lunch and then made my way back to the car.
I could see flashing lights coming from about where I parked my car and thought that with my luck somebody had clobbered me.
When I got back to my car I found that whatever had happened was a row over from me. That didn't stop me from checking the car over as usual. I found nothing amiss and headed home. I still had a couple of hours before Karl would get there so I started a review of my classes.
When the time came I got something going for supper and had it ready when Karl walked through the door.
"Well?"
"I think I did pretty good today lover. There wasn't anything on any of my tests that wasn't in the reviews or my notes."
"Damn good, Now just tomorrow and then we can relax for a while."
"That sure as hell will be nice, right up until we walk into Rusty Acres."
"Will you get off of that Karl. I think it's kinda good that those folks have that much spirit left in them. I hope we're as lively when we get to that age."
"Hell Den we're staying young forever."
"You wish. We both known damn well that there will come a time we slow down."
"Yeah I suppose, but regardless we'll always be together right?"
"Damn right we will."
I took Karl in my arms at that point and laid a good long kiss on him.
We sat down to supper and once everything was cleaned up hit the books for tomorrows exams.
We crashed earlier than usual and then it was up for the morning routine before we knew it. That taken care of we headed back to campus after breakfast.
The Investment Vehicles test was 50% multiple guess and 50% essay. I got through it with a few minutes to spare an as I turned in my paper instructor wished me a Merry Christmas.
I took the few minutes between class to simply head outside and relax. When it was time I headed into the tax class. Mr McEmbers was there ahead of everybody today so there wasn't much said as he passsed out the exams.
We were given 20 examples of different tax situations and were required to determine which set of tax laws pertained to each situation. A couple of the situations were rather trickily worded to see who was really paying attention. I wasn't the first one done nor was I the last. Mr McEmbers wished me an early happy birthday and a Merry Christmas.
Again with a little over an hour to waste, I headed over and got some lunch at the student union. People walked by and waved but none of the guys took time to stop and talk, which was fine, they all had things on their minds.
So eventually it was over to Risk/Rewards. This exam consisted of a list of 15 companies and the facts. We were to assign a risk rating, a potential return, and overall recommendation and then rank them as best overall investment.
This test seemed rather open ended to me. It largely called for an opinion and the instructor could either agree, disagree, or just flat out call you wrong based on his opinion.
I set to it and took damn near the whole hour to see it through to the end. I turned my paper in and then headed outside.
