Worrying about: Big Chemistry test I'm not ready for
Studying: Chemistry
Regrets: Not writing down the math homework that was due today before break and getting C's on my last two math tests - my current average is an 81%, bound to go down because of the missing homework. Perfect.
(rofl that smily is amusing. XD)
Health: Feeling better, but my throat has been unusually thirsty and I've got a terrible taste in my mouth and nose that won't go away. I think it's coming from my lungs. :/
KitsunenoTora is feeling: Anxious, worried, and tired
Meant to update this Monday night or yesterday, but I didn't. Oops.
I should be studying right now, but I just can't make myself any longer. I'll get up at a reasonable time tomorrow morning to study some more, and Dr. Khan is supposed to arrive early to review with the class before the test, so I'm confident I'll at least be able to pass the test from short term memory, at least.
I've kinda failed myself once again - I promised myself that I'd stay on top of my Chemistry so that I wouldn't bomb the next test like I did the last one. I still haven't read the chapters. I'll probably do not so well on the multiple choice, but the problems are what I'm most worried about - they're the majority of the points in the test, which I failed to realize for the last test, and thusly focused and took more notes on that stuff than was strictly needed. Ehhhhhhhh.
Monday was actually a very good day, despite having to get up at 7:30 am for work, being sick I couldn't fall asleep, so I was still sick and running on about 3 hours of sleep. >.> I ended up sleeping through my alarm until around 8:15 when mom came and woke me up. I had meant to work on my notecards and outline that morning during the time between my shower, eating, and getting ready for work. Didn't happen - I only had time to shower and get ready for work, not even for any breakfast. :/ We also didn't have any bread, so I couldn't make a lunch. Which meant I had to waste $6.30 in the cafeteria on not-so-good and tiny food at lunch time. DX
So I got in at 9:00, the start of my shift. I've never opened the computer labs before, so I was a little confused at first, but it wasn't that big of a deal. At least I didn't have to go and open each of the classrooms and make sure they were clean. Carla came through and opened the lab doors and turned on the lights while I was putting my coat on the hanger and putting my bag away, and I went through putting down the mice and keyboards and turning on the machines in the two rooms. Which took FOREVER, by the way. But after a row I got a good rhythm going and it went faster, so I guess it wasn't that long of a job. It was still slightly annoying - sometimes when I took the mouse and mousepad off of the keyboard set on top of the monitor the keyboard would slip off and fall, which isn't good for the poor thing. One of the keyboards was slightly broken, - not by me, it was that way when I found it - the little tab that keeps it at an angle was broken off on one side. No big deal though, I just snapped it back into place. My back kinda hurt from bending over and straightening over and over again about 100 times, though. DX I had to bend over to push the button on each of the machines to turn them on, then straighten up to put the mousepad, mouse, and keyboard on the desk at the next computer.
Anyway, Mary is in by now, and she and Carla are talking about how much rain we had gotten over the weekend, all the flooded roads, moving furniture, etc. Small talk. I join because I don't have really much to do then until more people arrive. We talk like that for a while, people file in and out, I do some homework, wipe down the coffee counter, check in the labs to push in chairs and make sure no one has any drinks or food, fill the printers, etc. Normal stuff. I got to go on the computer for a few minutes though, which was nice. I like talking on the forums with everyone, and being surrounded by all those computers which I can do it on (and I know they're on) and not being able to do so is kinda annoying sometimes. I'm addicted, I know. XP I don't care.
Lunchtime rolls around, and I'm STARVING. I was running on 3 hours of sleep and no food already, and I was sick. Not a good idea in and of itself, I'm surprised I managed to not pass out during the times I had nothing to do. ^^; I told Mary I was going to lunch, and headed to the cafeteria, since I had no lunch of my own. Got a cheeseburger and fries, and a sierra mist. I regretted the Sierra Mist later - wished I had gotten something with caffeinne in it when I was crashing again. ^^; It was a tiny little burger, but there was a substantial amount of fries, which was okay. At least it tasted good - I've heard my friends complain about getting bad food there before. Mary commented on it too, she was also surprised that I managed to get something that was good there, despite it's small size. I should have gotten a turkey or ham wrap though - a lot more food, and I didn't have to wait 20 minutes to get it. They make things by order there, so it took a while for my food. I only have a 30 min. lunch break, so I had to take my food with me back to the office and eat it there.
Nothing really of note happened between lunch and 3 - I missed on making the coffee like I'm supposed to do because of my food run, so Bette wasn't very happy that she had to make it herself, but she and two other people are the only ones who really drink it, so. I wanted to make some of that nice orange tea (it's delicious with 3 packets of sugar and cold. Which is surprising and good - I usually don't like tea, hot or iced, but it's good for you.) but I didn't want to do so when I had a bottle of pop. Plus, I really wouldn't be able to enjoy it - I couldn't even smell it because of my cold. It's very fragrant, I like it. :3 It smells WONDERFUL. Maybe next week.
After 3, I head to the corner of the cafeteria where the gaming and anime club is. Andrea isn't there, much to my dismay - she was supposed to bring her PS2 so she could help me play Halloween Town. I call her on Pat's cell wondering where she is, and she was at home. I guess it wouldn't have mattered - both of the tvs were occupied, and neither of us really thought we would be able to commendere one of them from the boys. She came anyway to keep me company, which I was glad for. I like seeing her, and I want to see her as much as possible before she leaves in the Fall. I'm so going to miss her - I even asked her to never fade away on Facebook. >.>;;; She's my only IRL friend I really enjoy hanging out with.
She got her hands on Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, which I'm jealous of. I only could find Trials and Tribulations, which is like... the 3rd in the series, I think. It references what happens in the first one a lot, which confuses and annoys me sometimes. She brought it to play since she finished TWEWY. But the really fun part of the day was after I gave her her birthday present: An I <3 Yaoi bag I got on sale at the discount bookstore. Twas a score, it was, and I knew she'd absolutely love it. And she did. XD She ran around the corner showing everyone, who either congratulated her and laughed (Mostly girls and two or three guys) or cringed and tried to run away from the bag (the rest of the boys. Not that they're homophobic or anything, I'm sure none of them have a problem with it, but yaoi scares them. And Andi scares them. Andi + yaoi = FUCKING HELL IT'S A FANGIRL GET IN THE CAR.). She had a blast scaring/torturing them all by touching them with the bag or showing it to them, it was a lot of fun. I'm glad I got it for her, haha. XD
The only kinda bad thing about the end of the day was that I had to wait until 6:00 to get a ride home from Andi - mom and Pat went out to the bar, so I couldn't get a ride home from them. By the time I had gotten home, Dad had already picked up Joey and went to Grandma's without me. DX They couldn't wait 5 minutes for me to get home, I guess. :/ I figured Joey would realize I would get a ride home close to the time I had to leave, since I did talk to him on the phone an hour before, but I guess he isn't that smart. DX I called Grandma, and my dad came back to pick me up. Ate spagetti dinner, finished betaing twiinklestar's KuroFai fic, watched Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy, blew my nose more times than I wanted to. It's been peeling today. DX
Tuesday I had work at 2 until 5. I had planned on getting up at 9:30-10:00 to start studying for my test and prepare for the lab that day, but... didn't happen again, lol. ^^; I'm terrible. I think I woke up around 11:30, showered, ate, packed my Chemistry stuff to do at work, packed my lunch, etc. I forgot my lab goggles for the second time. I'm out of strikes - next time it happens I can't do the lab. DX Next lab is the Acid/Base one too, so I DEFINITELY need goggles for that one. I gotta remember next time.
Met the tutor Jay for the first time. She's Indian, and has a REALLY THICK ACCENT. I can't understand half the shit she says. DX I'm terrible with accents - both in doing them myself and understanding them. Especially Indian accents. I mostly just nodded whenever she said anything. Only got a few strange looks from her, so I guess I did okay. XDD She apparently really likes doing crafts, Mandy - the girl with the shift before me - and her were doing origami and other things when I walked in, and she was talking a lot about scrapbooking and where to get good supplies with Bette. She's nice though. I told her that I like to do origami too, and she asked me if I could make paper cranes. I can, so I said yes. Apparently she wants to make a mobile of them for Bette, since they're good luck and Bette apparently likes that type of thing. I'm supposed to help her next week.
After work I ate my lunch and headed to class. We finished up chapter 6 and discussed how to do the lab, much to my joy. It was also much to my joy that I actually got it right on the prelab - maybe I should do my prelabs at work more often, haha. Maybe it helps me understand better or something. XD I was glad that we went over it in class, it made the lab MUCH EASIER and faster. I still have to do all the calculations and fill out my report sheet, but I can get that done fast now that I know how to do it. I might just do it to study for the test tomorrow morning, if I have the oppourtunity and time.
The lab went by really fast, I was done and cleaned up by 8:45, and we started around 7:15. An hour and a half - a new record. XD Most labs take until at least 9:30. (Excluding that god-awful copper cycle lab, ugh that was an abomination. Fun because there were a lot of cool colors involved, but complicated and lengthy.)
Went home, worried about my non-existant math homework, and ended up not doing my notecards and outline. I was completely out of it- I could hardly form a coherent sentence while talking to Mima on YM or Kotor and Truth on the LTP, let alone work on a paper. So I didn't. I regret it - I didn't have time to do it this morning. I thought it would be a quick thing, but I was wrong. As it turns out, one of my needed IRL book sources is actually a NOVEL, which is of no use to me, so I have to find another non-internet source. Don't think I'll be too lucky.
I got my inquiry paper back in English - I got an 88%. I was sad, I thought I did better. But he said it was too informative - I didn't have enough of myself in it. Well, sorry, but I have to explain where my ideas come from before I present them, and by the time I'm done explaining it was already 5 pages, past the limit of the paper already. DX Oh well. :/
Andi brought her PS2 this time, and we managed to get a tv from one of the groups of boys. The Xbox was leaving with it's owner in a few minutes, anyway. :3 Andi and that one guy (I'm terrible with names, STFU) helped me through Halloween town, I couldn't figure it out for some reason. XD But I still feel like I'm missed something. D: I know there was that one treasure chest that neither Andi nor I could reach, but I feel like I missed an entire section, it was just too short. But I did do a few things a few weeks before, so I guess it might be just my imagination. I'll have to check the guide later. Finished Halloweentown - Oogie Boogie was really easy, despite me not having the forsight to give Goofy or Jack any items. DX I normally do that, but I didn't this time. I almost died once or twice, but luckily I didn't run out of Ethers before it was too late. Around 5:15 we switched to KHII, since I wanted to eat something before my class at 5:30. I wanted to see Axel, but she didn't get to that point before I had to leave. DX I was late to class, too!
Math was a train wreck - I know I did terrible on the quiz, not having the homework really threw me off. It also didn't help that I hadn't so much as THOUGHT of any of the stuff for two weeks. DX At least all the homework I have to do this week is study for the next test, that's not so hard. Hopefully I'll get better than a C on the next one. D:
....This is so long that it's freezing up. Maybe I shouldn't do blog posts spanning 3 days anymore. XD;; I should stop, it's already 3:30 am and I have to get up at a decent hour to study and possibly go to the Secretary of State. Goodnight, digital abyss.
