Well after reading Megans blog I became inspired. Really I’ve been meaning to write for a long time, just never really got around to doing it.
So! School. Well, first off I actually passed my sedimentology midterm with a 71. Yay me! I am compitent! After that it was basically a series of highs and lows. Mostly highs though. 89 on my stats midterm made me happy, since the rest of the class was a bunch of tards and got bad marks. I just wrote my first lab final today, and it wasn’t the easiest thing in the world. I’m really not sure how I did on it, so I’m hoping I did ok. I passed my teachers exam with distinction yet again. I had a perfect exam, and she urged me to do my judges exam ASAP since I had done so well. So that was pretty nice.
Sickness wise I have managed to get one more flu, but it was a while ago and I didn’t really get it for very long, just a day or so. Needless to say though that I have had too many flus this semester and they are definitly not appreciated. Others keep getting pretty sick around me though, so I’m really trying to stay away without being a horrible person. So far its not really working out that way. Oops!
School life has been pretty stupid. I’m just so sick of everyone right now. Stacy is just constantly on my nerves right now, and I’m really starting to dislike Mandy again. She is back to being a pot head and keeps telling everyone that its ok to do that, its not as bad as drinking. Yeah, ok. I mean, I get it, you went through heart break, but that isn’t really an excuse to completely let yourself go a good 4 months after the fact. She was so driven when she was with Mark, and now its just gone again. She also keeps doing the whole “I’m going to fail, I just want to drop out, I can’t stand this” bullshit too. That really annoys me, I don’t care who it comes from. Just suck it up and get on with it, yes it sucks that we sometimes get screwed over, but we all have to do it in the end anyways, so just let it go. I manage to live on my own and have 3 jobs and do a large class load aswell and magically get everything done too. *sigh* I think I’ll just end up studying on my own for finals this semester.
Dancing has been ok. I mean, I’ve just been teaching and all that so nothing really new. Krystal has been on my nerves again, but thats never anything new. I’m also thinking about doing some extra private lessons in december so that I can make some extra cash. With my new members certificate, I’m able to bump up my private lesson fee to 20 bucks an hour. FUCK YEAH! That could get me rich fast. I may even advertise that fact around, because hell if I have a saturday where I’m not doing much, then why not take advantage of that? I could be rich with 5 private lessons!….ish!
My lab work has been getting better aswell. I managed to finally isolate product, which means I ended with a solid 6 mL of product, which means that I’ve produced an average of 1 mL per month. Yay me! So tomorrow I get to move on to the next step. I am very nervous about this, so I brought home my lab book so I can write out procedures etc. I’m just anxious :S. After this, if it works out, I’m going to be pushing all my reagents over to the next step and then continue like this till my contract is up. I’m hoping that if I go in small steps like this I will be able to have a much smoother synthesis and actually come up with some real product! If I could, then I would finally feel accomplished.
What else….OH! World of Warcraft expansion came out. Yeah, I am a huge nerd, and it couldn’t have come at a worse time. Right when I start all my finals. I’ve managed to play a bit on the weekends, and this weekend I will also have a ton of free time too, but when christmas comes I’m going to have this chair growing out of my butt. I’m such a nerd, but thankfully I’ve been able to seperate it from school and not be so bad like I was when I played Diablo II.
Speaking of christmas, yikes I’m poor, but the nice thing is that me and Phil are splitting the presents which makes it a whole bunch cheaper. This still doesn’t put me in a great situation for next semester, so I’m getting a personal line of credit to help me cope. I think I might just put all my christmas presents on my credit card and then use my PLC for tuition and rent etc. Then when the summer comes I’m just planning on putting all my saved money back onto my PLC, and during the semester I will put all my money back onto my credit card. I’m hoping it works, and I’m also hoping that next year will be my last year of school, because from what I deduced it should be. I’m thinking about setting up a meeting with the advisor of science to double check this, because I think I might actually have one more semester than I think. Who knows, but atleast I’ll have a concrete answer.
The BCSA has also been going….ok. From what I hear, URSU actually cut our funding and never told us. So, I’m going to be sending them an e-mail asking them if this is true. If it is, then they’re going to get a long winded bitchy e-mail. How UNPROFFESIONAL is it to NOT tell someone they’re not recieving 1300 dollars? Yeah, not very. So actually all we will ever get is 200 from the faculty of science, which isn’t horrible but we did have a lot planned. Boo!
And sadly, I don’t have any funny pictures to point you towards like Megan did. I’ll just go tell you to go to youtube and look up shwifty five. I think I already showed Megan, but just do it anyways.
Cheers!
