It was a typical weekend. Grey’s Anatomy Season 1 on DVD came in the mail on Thursday. I was quite excited. I watched all nine episodes before tonight’s new episode. Continuity-wise it worked out perfectly. If I watched tonight’s new episode before the first season finale all the surprises would have been destroyed.
I met a new friend this weekend named Cari. She partied with Lisa, Randy, Christina and I this weekend. Religion is a BIG part of her life. On Friday night she got kind of preachy but I attempted to steer the conversation away from her lecturing into more of a debate. Last night we did a part two-type thing. Lisa and Christina got mad at us for discussing suicide. Cari said she believed all people who commit suicide go to hell. I don’t know why they got so offended. They weren’t even part of the conversation. They were supposedly playing drinking games. If they are not religious, Lisa especially, then why should they have any reason to think Cari’s claims are correct or that hell really even exists? I know that I disagreed with her but I didn’t throw a hissy fit about it. Once she realized that she was the reason the girls were upset she left. I felt bad because she did not do it intentionally. I didn’t know that our one-on-one was being eavesdropped upon. I didn’t know there were limits to what I could talk about at a party with a new acquantence. In the end, though, I’m glad I met her and got her number because I can talk to her about ANYTHING happening in my life. She knows she can do the same with me too.
I’ve been semi-sick lately. I started getting stuffy-nosed on Thursday. I didn’t feel much like going out this weekend but I did anyway. Saturday morning I woke up with a killer headache resulting from the previous night’s events. I NEVER get hangovers but that was one for sure. I’m coughing up a lot of gunk today. I should be as good as new by Tuesday or Wednesday.
I am going home Thursday after Myth & Meaning. Michelle will have to take notes for me in Biology on Friday. It’s okay because I took notes for her last Friday. Karma! I hope to see my chiropractor this weekend. I just feel achy lately, probably due to having the flu.
I just want to publicly thank Lauren for dealing with my laundry fiasco Saturday night. I would not have been able to go out if it were not for her. She lost my sock though. PISSED.
My week of tests went horribly. 75% on the Biology test, 62% on the Myth test, and 60% on the Statistics quiz. I’m not shocked about Statistics but I studied many different ways for the other two. Several long pointless hours wasted. Our Myth guy wanted us to know way too much stuff for one little test. I’m not even really upset about almost failing because it’s an unrealistic amount of information to memorize. I don’t even care anymore about that class. I’ll take a “C” or “D” and be fine. It’s just a Gen. Ed. I’m not giving up; I’m just a bit discouraged.
I’m going to predict my end-of-semester grades for each class right now:
-Statistics: B
-Biology: B
-Family: A
-Gender: A
-Myth: D
-Choir: A
I’m thinking really negatively right now so it will probably be better come May. Have a warm rest of February guys.
