Major freak-out issues this week
1. I'M BACK ON LJ! I had a break from the internet during the holidays- except iOffer, I spent hundreds of bucks there during the holidays...Criminal Minds, Dexter, Bones, Shark etc. etc.
2.. Turning 20 on Wed. *cringes* Ye gods, how OLD I sound. I need to be mature and responsible in two days time! Impossible!
3. The X-files movie out the day AFTER my birthday! I'm making my official b'day celebration July 24th this year. *glees*
4. Forced to purchase the learners handbook to driving. Forced, I say. All I need to do right now is study it- 'I've...looked at it,' I tell my parents. Look I have, but *read*? I'm putting that off as long as possible. It's a slippery slope from passing my learner's test online to actual *flails* DRIVING. Katherine got me to hold the wheel while she was answering the phone the other day? I almost ran the car off the road. Not cool.
5. And the most major issue...good news, bad news, worse news. I passed three units from first semester- failed Biz Org. Yuck. But at least I passed Property which is a pre-req for Land Law this semester, and it would have been messy and ruined my law track if I couldn't move on down the chain of units.
I'm vowing to do better this semester. After a brief flirtation with skipping this morning, I ended up attending Land Law. This is the beginning of a new and better me. :0 My parents are kinda forcing the metamorphosis, though- I'm only allowed FOUR hours of tv a week, and I'm banned from going anywhere and doing anything other than uni from Mon-Thursday. I'm not even allowed to visit my grandmother, who is pretty much the only person I see, practically every day, I'm closer to her than anyone else in my life and I can now only visit her on Fri and the weekend- when my parents can monitor how long I spend there and make up chores to keep me at home. *grumps*
Regret and contrition for screwing up last semester aside, I am kinda impressed that with only a day's study- from 9am til half an hour before the exam commenced at 2pm- I managed to score 64% in Psychology and a 55 in Soc. Seriously, wow. Imagine what I could achieve with a semester full of study? Even *half* a semester's worth of attention?
6. I'm actually excited about a unit this semester- I'm starting PSYCHOPATHOLOGY on Wed! Is that not the most awesome unit imaginable?! :D
