Macro results
So they posted the answer key this morning! I got a 68 base score, plus three points extra credit for taking the early test. That gave me a 71, so now I was just praying for a one point curve (a 71 gave me a 75.25, .25 away from a C+). I came home to find an EIGHT point curve waiting for me. Turns out I wasn't the only one who did poorly! That gave me a 79, which means I got a 77.25, C+ and I'm DONE!!! *does a jig*
Foley's obituary
Last lab, our assignment was to write Foley's obituary. We got to make up the cause of death and it could be as outrageous as we wanted. In my obit, he bit the dust while dressed as a clown for a faculty Halloween party, as he did his "question dance" and honked his red clown nose straight down a flight of stairs. Apparently mine was one of his favorites, because he read a few of them outloud, mine included. Woot! He said his favorite obit ever came from the very first time he gave the assignment: "Foley suffered from a heart-attack after having sex with a student who was only sleeping with him to get a better grade." LOL
Weezer tickets
I got the password to the pre-sale in my inbox this morning, tickets go onsale tomorrow at 10 a.m. As of right now, it's me and Mishy. Last chance!!! If you're torn, you can always get tickets later and just ride with us, but my offer ends tonight.
Florida weather sucks
So today is just unbearably hot. That's not to say that every day in summer isn't unbearably hot in Florida, but today is especially so. I was sitting out waiting for the bus and just absolutely dying. Owen drove out and saw me and gave me a ride to class, but his air-conditioning isn't the best so it a hot, albeit quicker, ride. Then he dropped me off at Reitz, so I had to walk up the hill/stairs/more stairs at the journalism building. By the time I got to lab, I was exhausted. After lab, my lab-friend Charity offered to give me a ride home, so we walked to the parking garage. Again, soooo hot we just wanted to collapse. When I got home and sat on the leather seats of my Mustang, I thought my legs were going to spontaneously burst into flames. Curious, I checked the temps online.
Gainesville: actual temp: 92. Feels like: 98. And to prove that Gainesville is at least a little better than Arcadia, Arcadia: actual temp: 90. Feels like: 102. Yeesh.
