Finals Survival Gear – Spring Semester 2006

So that time of year has come around again. Despite the fact that it’s raining beautifully again and the snow is gone, it can still be a stressful time. The word ‘finals’ in no way, scares me as much as it did when I was a first year, but I can still feel the tension. It’s been a crazy time around CPC so I decided that the Spring Semester 2006 edition of the "Finals Survival Gear: The Mixed Tape" would have a bit of a mellow feel.

So after a lot of procrastination time I have made the final list:

Side A:

And I know, there is no Yo-Yo Ma gracing my list this year. I realized this just after I had burnt off the CD’s, so for an honourary spot I nominate “Cello Suite No. 1, 4. Sarabande” I tell you it is the best music to study by.
