Mixed Bag

Today has been absolutely draining. After I post this, I intend to go to bed promptly.

I've had like the perfect mix of absolutely terrible and absolutely awesome today. I think I'll start with the awesome, because it's much less than the terrible.

1) I got a 103.5% on my physics test. I probably should have gotten like a 110%, had I not made one really big stupid mistake, but I am not going to complain about a 103.5%. This takes a huge amount of pressure off of me for the next two tests, as I have to get an 85% average on them to get an A in the class. Suffice it to say, I'm probably going to get an A in physics because of this test.

2) I got a 100% on my Anthro assignment, 5 bonus points of EC (which is a ton), and after a small curve on the midterm, I got a 100%. Awesomeness. I basically don't have to worry about this class too much, and he said that after this it's pretty much downhill.

3) I got some awesome CD's in at the library, including Yo-Yo Ma and Chloe. I would not have to get the latter, had our other computer not totally crashed.

4) My Ancient Egypt essay didn't suck as bad as I thought it would, and I think I have enough to get me at least a B+, with which I will be more than happy, given how much stress I have been under in the last couple of weeks and the next two to come.

5) I know I'm going to write about Egypt under Rome for my final essay because Rome is awesomeness.

These are the terrible things:

1) I actually did get an 88% on my physiology test because I skipped one question on the test, which, with a scantron, screws everything up. I would have gotten a 94%, but I missed like 6 points on my second test because my scantron was fucked up.

2) I still need to go over my ancient egypt paper tomorrow morning one more time before I turn it in.

3) I have two tests this week, still, in Cell Bio and Organic Chemistry. I don't really care too much about the latter, even though I would still love to get the mini-scope.

4) They fucked up the schedule by dumping Biochemistry this summer, so I'm rearranging everything. I decided that summer would be a good time to get rid of all the 100 level classes I have to take for Geography, so I have to ditch World War I. I'm not that big on WWI as I have done it extensively in HS. That would lower the number of hours for my minor to 10. I also have to change my fall schedule. I was going to take a 100 Geo in the Fall, but since I'm doing that this summer, I am dumping it for an upper division geography (either geopolitics or Mexico, Central America, and the Carribean) class so I can lower the classes I have to take for that minor to two, which for me are a cartography class and remote sensing. I take Biochem in the Fall, and bump research stats to another semester. This means that after fall, I have these requirements left:
Spanish: 6 Hours (Literary Analysis and a Culture class)
Geography: 7 Hours (Intro to Cartography and Remote Sensing)
Philosophy: 3 Hours (Senior Thesis and Seminar)
History: 6 Hours (U.D. Elective and Thesis)
Biology: 8 Hours (Biochemistry II, Research Seminar, Genetics, and other electives)
Political Science: 12 Hours (American Politics and 9 U.D. Electives)
Physics: 16 Hours (Calculus III, Physics III, Modern Physics, 6 U.D. Electives)
Chemistry: 5 Hours (Physical Chemistry, 2 U.D. Elective)
General Education: 3 Hours (Humanities 399)

After Spring, I intend to wipe out all of one of my minor requirements (probably Spanish), 8 Hours for Physics, and 8 Hours for Biology. I would do my seminar for philosophy if Cutter teaches it in the Spring.

5) I got an email saying that I basically suck and don't deserve scholarship money. So there goes $1000, and more poverty for me. I need a fucking job. I probably should consider working extra hours in the lang tech center so that I can get more money. I'll probably bail on physics at 4 on Wednesday so that I can get 3 full hours on Wednesday.

I think I'm becoming bipolar.
