If you're going to screw something up, don't do a half-assed job of it...
Due to a complete lack of motivation early in the semester, my grades are currently the lowest they've ever been. I guess I shouldn't have expected anything better since i had been in apathy mode for the last few weeks of fall semester and throughout Christmas, and my courses this semester included 2 400 level biology courses, and 2 300 level courses with labs (biology and Ochem).
Sound scoldings from all sides for the last month have convinced me that I'd better pull up the nose dive, and ive been trying alot harder for the past few weeks. In some courses the difference has been apparent, in ochem im a little worried it is too late for regrets. I have at least a C right now, so I'm not worried about having to retake it, but damnit i could have done so much better. If I ever get a C in a course because I genuinely couldnt do better I'll accept that, but i cant be happy that i just didnt try.
So I'm in the last stretch of the marathon-- just a little more push to cram months of knowledge into my head in a few days. It wont save me from myself, but it might soften the blow.
Microbiology exam Monday at 8 am-- I have 4 new chapters to read (~130 pages) and 11 chapters to review. Exams are mostly short answer.
Chris is in Chicago until Wednesday. I have a pot of Zatarains, a mug of chai, and some black cherry "soda".... wish me luck
