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)
Happy Happening Humans
