I forgot I even had a semester, apparently.
I usually sum up semesters! I forgot to, this time, apparently. The fun fact is, due to financial stupidities caused by having to drop a class, I don't actually know what my grades are, so I have to guess! Oh boy.
Music History: The enjoyment of which was dampened by my need to focus intensely on my English course. I did get a lot out of the class sessions, but the tests... yeah, I had some trouble recalling shit. Ultimately I'd say it was worth it, because we DID do a lot of listening and discussion of different styles of music, and this was absolutely interesting. I... either got a high C or a low to mid B here because of tests. (Maybe an A if I pulled a miracle out of my ass, but I doubt it.)
Intermediate Algebra: In typical fashion, I tore this class apart for the most part. Bit of struggle near the end, again due to intense focus on English, but I think my worst grade was in the low 90s? Yeah, nothing to worry much about! Easily an A here.
World Religions: This is the one I dropped. After the essay grinds, I'm fucking glad I did. But it's left me idle this semester. Oyyy. (Which is probably a good thing due to the weather earlier this season. Fucking snow and ice everywhere. And probably good that Thursday nights are open this week because I'm probably going to see Dream Theater!)
English Composition II: The guy teaching this class was fucking awesome. I was intimidated initially, by virtue of the nature of the class and my first essay (a personal narrative). It caused blocks like hell.
So, how did the class go?
I somehow managed to pull a B out of this time. Tests weren't too bad, quizzes on reading were hit-and-miss (and once induced a panic attack when I hadn't eaten and couldn't remember shit...), essays... I got somewhere in the 80s on each. I feel relieved that I didn't bomb any.
I can't help but feel these days like I went too overboard on the last one, but I genuinely had a whole heap of fun writing it, much to my surprise.
Wario Land II is still stuck at 9:13.83. Haven't been running much lately. For some reason I can't bring myself to play games much lately.
And yes, I mentioned it earlier, but chances are I'm seeing Dream Theater on the 27th. It depends on how ticket purchases go. It'll pretty much drain me of any extra money I have at the moment, but it feels like something I'd regret passing up considering I actually have a bit of a chance. I thought I'd already missed this, but apparently not!
It'd be my first time truly being alone going somewhere (unless high school basketball games count -- god, I miss those), so there's some nervousness floating around. I should (hopefully) make it back alive.
aside from that I guess I'm just trying to talk to people more and stave off the inevitable decline due to having to drastically alter my focus on some shit? the PC store I was supposed to start working at fell through twice so I'm pretty pissed about that
the lengths these reach when I don't update for a while
