YYYYYEEEAAAHH BOYYYY!

I got 122 1/2 out of 110 points on my last math test.

Movin on up...! Looks like I don't need to rule out physiology just yet... gotta keep that 4.0 nice and sharp.

Congrats!!!!

Damn, I lied. To myself. I still have my Friday class at 9:50. But that's IT. Then exams.

Oh and that insane math test he decided to throw in today-oh yeah, he changed his mind AGAIN and emailed it to us as a take home due Thursday. Take home=no partial credit. Jerk.

ETA: OOOH, but my thesis proposal was accepted! Oh senior year is going to be a nightmare! Yay but :crazy: and :scared:


Thesis was simultaneously the best and worst part of my senior year.

Congrats sexkitten!

Roseleigh. I know all about insane math tests. I am pretty sure I failed the math test I just took today but it looks like no one passed so maybe it will be curved. (The calc prof is older than McCain and a sadist). It was supposed to be my best subject but not this semester. Chemistry is actually my best subject this semester which is insane. Au revoir my 4.0 GPA.

This summer I'm taking:

Calc II
University Physics I
Engineering Economy
and Introduction to Urban Studies
(yay it's a lot but I want to hurry the hell up and graduate)

RoseLeigh

^^Yikes! Calc is scary. You've got some scary classes there in general, Alia! I'm just trying to pass Intermediate Algebra, which is way harder this time around.

Aussiebelle-it's on the supposed 'international' artistic style in the Late Bronze Age Aegean (1500-1200 BCE-ish) in textiles and/or personal items. I think art's one of the first places you look for cross cultural idea exchange, and there is some so far-in architecture, but I'm looking for more.

Yay! I got a B in my last math test. Thank goodness. The studying is paying off, plus I'm having my gf tutor me and she's a math genius! I'm so glad I'm going to pass this class, I took it last semester and got a D. boo!

Yay! I just got a high distinction for my last assignment but now I have another 2500 word essay due on Monday that I haven't started. Argh. Then a 3000 word assignment due next Monday. I want holidays!!

I'MMMMMMMMMM FINISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :dance:

Ok, to be fair, I'm only finished with this semester. But I DON'T CARE, I'm so HAPPY! I pulled A's in 3 of my classes, waiting to hear back on the 4th. (please god let me pass...)

RoseLeigh
05-01-2008, 07:36 PM
YES. I got an A on my medieval exam! No idea what my grade will be, but I got an A!

(we will not speak of the 65 on the math quiz)

hardkandee

I turned in my astronomy creative project and did my presentation in another class.

I got a 104% on my last Chemistry exam *does back flip*. It brings my average up to a 94% so I am not so worried about that class...

Calculus is a bitch. The best score on the last test was 80% in the class and the average score was 35%. Thank god he curved the damn thing so I ended up with a B. Most other people still failed even with the curve...

Phew. Today was the last day of classes. I just managed to finish my 7 page paper last night (with some very good editing assistance) and I think I made a clear and straightforward argument (thank you ADHD treatment!)

Now I have to finish 30 pages of a script, of which I have 14 or so written, by next Tuesday and one final on Thursday.

Next semester is going to FREAKING SUCK. Sucksucksuck. 4 classes and an internship and finding a way to pay my bills.

I either want to *poof* into a happy place - Rapture-style or just DIE.

I've finished one of the research papers; have another one to do (The Degeneration of the Museum as an Institution) by 8am tomorrow *sob*; still have to do that German essay; have a German test and an entire chapter of German homework she added tonight; and still the 4 finals.


And my boyfriend is an inconsiderate DICKWAD that thinks it's ok to watch porn in front of me while I'm trying to get this shit done. AND listen to Rammstein. AND tell me I'm too busy to have sex with him (ha, I'm always horny). Fuck him and his porn. I'm thisclose to telling him to totally fuck off and get the fuck out of here. But honestly, I need the computer to get the rest of the school work done and I don't really want to stress out about where to live at this moment. :'(

Until summer semester starts, and then I shall learn le francais!

Do you know any other languages? I think French was pretty easy. You should be fine. :)

hardkandee
05-05-2008, 10:51 PM
Then it should be a breeze!! Tres facile. :D
I love taking French. The teacher was unimaginably attractive too, so that might have helped. :blush:

Dur-Of course you're too busy! I will duct tape the boy to the chair and put on Pig in the City. }:D Oh yes, he will learn.

The 'Degeneration of a Museum as an Institution' makes me sad. :( I hope you're off rocking the Deutsch!

I definatly believe I got an A on my chemistry exam today...

And I had the highest score out of anyone in my class on my Calculus final! I only missed 2 questions!!!

Now my brain hurts!

RoseLeigh

I really am quadratically-stunted. I don't want to fail this class. :'(

Okay so I didn't go to the final this morning and I'm glad. Teacher is reviewing with me for an hour tomorrow. Not to mention I have French review and finance tutoring.....:faint:

We recently finished that chapter in my math class and I got it down pretty well, so if you need any help at all I'd be happy to explain some stuff via PM or what not. :)

PMed you! I just need a C on this exam. Well, really I only need a 50% to pass but that would give me a D for the class and I don't want that! *wooosah*

Poor thing. This time last year I had a calc-related breakdown, I swears.

A woman actually had a heart attack during the exam, and I think the pity marks and extra time we got for 'dealing with' that is the only reason I passed calc. Trauma all the way. Lowered my f'in GPA too.

Wow-exam-related heart attack? Was she okay? I feel so dopey for stressing on algebra, but that was so hard. Huge gym full of people, all making noise, jerk prof staring us all down. Ye gods, I hope I did okay.

I'm on the last scene of my script. Then I have to type it, edit it and go back over the whole thing to make sure I'm not overly descriptive in my stage directions. Oh and type up character descriptions.

I just don't know how if it will sound like real people talking. -worries-

I have a history test on Tuesday.

I should just drop the class now. There is no way in fucking hell I am going to pass. I'm so stressed I'm on the verge of shaking or screaming into a pillow. I just am so unbelievably fucking bored out of my mind by it that its difficult to study. I also have a good 500 pages a week of reading just for that class. I need to read practically a whole textbook this weekend. I'm used to As. I don't even forsee a B in this class. /end rant.

And I had an appointment with an advisor who confirmed that I'll be able to graduate in December.

I just finished my exams but I'm pissed that I got a B- in a class where all the work was group oriented. One chick who didn't meet to complete any work got a higher grade than me. I'm emailed my a-hole professor becuz I know I deserve a higher than what I got. So I'm waiting to hear from him and hear what his reason is. I'm so angry and now I need to get ready for work.

Alia_of_the_Knife
05-14-2008, 01:48 PM
Thank God, I got a B+ in Calculus. Its not the A that I wanted but my professor was a sadist. I believe more than half the class failed.

And I got As in everything else. Chemical engineering here I come!
