[enter rant here]
I hate finals, and testing in general. It's a fact that testing for performance decreases interest and discourages learning, why is it still the only system available?
I bombed my Organic Chemistry final, and even though I'm pretty sure the majority of the class did shitty on it as well, it's very discouraging. Every time this happens I panic and feel that Im going to have to change my major to something that I don't enjoy as much (and therefore a career that doesn't interest me) because of one stupid test. This happens with every Chemistry class I take.
I think Im going to look for a major in biology that has very limited Chemistry requirements. I love genetics, but I might be able to major in something close enough to it that it won't matter. Biotechnology maybe? I really need to see a career advisor.
Oh, and I'm leaving for Santa Cruz today. Im looking forward to seeing the friends I haven't seen in months, but Im worried that I won't be able to see them all. Oh well.
My brother-in-law is coming to celebrate early Christmas with us. Ew. Although I usually shrug it off, being the only non-Scientologist has started to bug me since I was the only one in about 100-200 people at my sister's wedding. My dad is the only other one in my close family who isn't one, and he is in Washington. I always feel somewhat left out and judged, just because Im not gullible enough to succumb to a cult. Fuck Scientology.
