Things
Bah. Just got my Brit Lit exam back and I got a B+. It's just so...wrong...on so many different levels. I mean, come on, I should be getting a friggin' A in that class. Not a B+. Not an A-. An A. I got an A in Medieval Lit. This is Brit Lit. It isn't that difficult, Lauren.
So I think as long as I get A's on my next to response papers and an A on my final, that B+ should be boosted up. I just...need to start reading the material. Hah. Yeah, that usually helps. Spenser's Faerie Queene is evil, however, and I think I'm going to have to dig up the very modern english version because, while the story already blows, early modern english isn't helping dernit.
I know a B+ isn't the end all of grades, but...it's my major. It's a teacher I've taken before...and it's an easy teacher. I know I'm not doing my greatest. And I need to work on that. It's like in philosophy. I need to start appyling myself a little more and it'll be all good.
So I get to go home this weekend! Yay! I really shouldn't be spending my time sitting here typing out an entry, but I just needed to rant for a short bit. I need to clean out the three sisters' cage (maybe), get all of my stuff together, and since my stomach is murdering me, I need to get some food. All in an hour. So I should get moving.
On the plus side, I actually got sleep last night. Granted I woke up around 6:30, drifted, woke up at 7:15, drifted, woke up, drifted, etc... But I actually curled up in bed at around 11, watched some tv, talked with Erin, got kept up a little by Heather, but I know I eventually fell asleep by 1. I think.
Which is a record for me. I needed that sleep (even though I had a 2 1/2hr nap yesterday). I was feeling like crap (one of the biggest tension headaches of my life yesterday). Yep. I just learned my chronic, painful headaches are tension headaches...which are a sort of migraine. Sound and light hurt my head in those instances and tynelol (or the generic) don't help either. They're coupled with muscle tension in the neck and shoulders and upper arms...making things very painful in my head and on my body. Go me.
So I was miserable.
But I survived. Go me.
Now..off to pack/gather, eat breakfast, and clean a mouse cage.
