December 19th
Gah, I'm so sorry guys I've been a horrible daily blogger. It's been what 18 days? Maybe 19 lol. Well It's been a pretty busy few weeks, with finals, christmas to-do, I saw a movie, work and now I'm home for a week. I'm surprised I remembered my head in mist of it all. Still managed decent grades on my exams (well on most anyway) and just about half of all my holiday to-do list is completed. This will probably be a short one, after all there's not much to tell and I'm not totally sure where I last left you guys but I'll try my best to catch you up with least amount of repetition.
Guess I'll start with the movie, which I believe I mentioned in the previous entry as something I was looking forward to - incase I didn't mention it I went to see Dr. Strange which has the amazing Ben Cumberbatch. The movie was amazing!! I absolutely adored it, though there was some discrepancy from the cartoon movie version I watched - to be expected, and kinda makes me wish I could read comics so I could find out how it was originally planned (and which version was more accurate) but I can't stand reading comics so I'll just have to settle for the awesomeness of the movie as a stand-alone thing. If you haven't seen it then I highly recommend finding it and enjoying the superb-ness of this film.
Finals went decently as can expected when hyped up on stress and caffeine lol. I did really well on one exam, decent on the second, yet to be announced, and then a really surprising near fail (which was super confusing since I felt really confident - so I've been trying to contact my teacher, buuuuuuut it's the holidays so....). Don't know what else there is to tell there... ooooh, oooh, oh.... I got lost on my way to the weird almost failed exam (a contributing factor to the fail?). The normal testing center was full so they sent me to B560, but I thought they said W516 (which doesn't exist), when I found a teacher she had no idea what I was talking about and neither did anyone she called so she followed me up to the testing center and turns out a spot had opened on the original room and I was able to start my test.
On a more festive note I have four out of my eight christmas list people done and wrapped. I have all my bills paid, my ride to and from home figured out and all I have left is to iron out plans with friends on boxing day, or the day after for coffee and gift giving. So all in all I'm feeling pretty confident about being ready for the holidays.
Well I'm gonna go, my mom is finally back after not being able to see her for two months so I'm gonna spend the rest of my evening enjoying her company and catching up on her adventures.

Top of the Playlist
Alright there is actually a playlist I've been listening to for the last two days, it includes more than six songs though. I don't wanna break my trend of three songs a day but I also couldn't possibly choose only six so I'm just gonna go through the list and give you the top played ones, see how many that ends up being.
Most of the songs have been from Shrek 2 playlist, Brother Bear 2, Spirit, and songs by the Arrogant Worms. I'll list my favourites from each soundtrack, if you don't know it and I don't post it please check it out. I recommend all of them for your listening enjoyment.
1) From Shrek I've been loving; Hero by Frou Frou, Accidently in Love by Counting Crows, As Lovers Go by Dashboard Confidential and Ever Fallen in Love by Pete Yorn
2) From Brother Bear;Welcome to This Day and Feels like Home by Melissa Etheridge
3) From Spirit; You Can't Take Me, Get Off My Back and Here I Am by Bryan Adams
4) From Arrogant Worms; The Coffee Song and the Assumption Song

So in the end there is two from Shrek, and one for the other three for a grand total of five videos. I said it before and I'll say it again please check out and love all the songs I listed and not just the ones I posted. And if you truly adore the song buy it and help out the artist (which I didn't say before). Last thing before I leave you to your lives is please comment your favourite song for me, I'll check it out and who knows it might end up being a new favourite for me and possible end up in a future Top of the Playlist.

December 1st
24 days till Christmas ya'll *insert excited squeal* I hope you guys are excited as me. After all the ritualist sentiments that infect our society during this time of year is amazing. Even the bus is accepting bus fare in the form of food bank donations (at least until the sixth, but imagine how much money they lose with so little riders paying the three dollars to ride for seven days - it officially started yesterday). I'm hoping my work gives me the 24th and 26th off so I can go home for christmas; highly unlikely though. Still my hope is alive until the schedule comes out.
Now I realize I missed the entry for the 30th but since I don't yet have any readers I'm not gonna bother mentioning anything from that day (don't worry you aren't missing much). So moving straight onto today I had a bit of a shock at 1am when I realized it was december first which meant I had a final in my sociology class. Now normally a last minute test on three lectures wouldn't freak me out but this did because I skipped a lecture, didn't read the texts and... it was worth more than the previous exams. My panic attack chased away my half sleep-ness and I was up till 4am going over the first two chapters and lecture slides. I spent this afternoon trying to go over the last two chapters (I say trying because the appartment near mine was having its floors re-done and damn is that ever loud and distracting). In the end I think I did pretty well.
I'm forecasting a 23/33 on the MC and 12/17 on the Written (So 35/50 or 70%). Which overall isn't very good considering I got 80% on both other tests (which were each 20% of total grade) and a 0% on the paper (which was worth 30% of the grade). Which basically means I barely pass, bring down my GPA again.
My GPA will probably drop further next semester because I'm forced to take fine arts courses and all the easy/appealing classes were closed or I didn't meet the requirements. So I'm stuck in Latin (which I suck at language classes, I have not aptitude for language) and Philosophy of Law. I've got no classes on Thursdays but I've still asked to be unavailable in hopes of using it to study for those two classes and not fail them the way I seem to be doing with my sociology class.
Well I've expressed my stress over my current and future grade situation now I've gotta go and do two papers for my Psychology class that are due on December 7th. (Not that I know how to write either of them, gah I hate papers)
