can i date you, donnie darko?
well it's a Sunday, and fortunately I have time to really write in this livejournal of mine. that is quite exciting :o)
Finals week is soon approaching at the Texas Tech Campus and initially I was meant to take five. Well, this stressed me out especially considering my roommate has to only endure two finals. i was very depressed about this and frustrated. BUT. after some prayer, God gave me some great news. My art appreciation teacher suddenly told us last thursday that she was dropping the lowest test grade, so if we were happy with our grade we didn't need to take the final because it would be dropped. yay for me and having a high A in there :o) plus since im a good little girl who attends all her classes I basically don't have to go anymore because i have less than three absences :o)-- so now it's 4 finals. ha. basically i have to study for all of them. I have high A's in spanish and math, but a borderline A in mass comm and a B in history because that class sucks balls. in order to get an A in history i have to make a mid A or higher. blehhh.
here's my end of semester synopsis:
History: basically, history up to 1877 is NOT fun. we are ending on the civil war. it's hard enough for me to enjoy certain aspects of history... not to mention this class was at 8 am monday, wed, and friday. boo. but my teacher was cool, and i learned some new stuff. whatevs.
Intro to Mass Comm: ha.ha. intro eh? well, so much for thinking this would be an easy A. everyday we scramble to write down notes because Dr. Dean goes at 90 mph with the power pt, and then we have 90 question tests that are 80% T/F. hows that for fun? except, the class is interesting because it has to do with my major. i just wish it was an easy intro class like Human Sciences or something where they have no homework, tests, and do stupid shtuff.
College Algebra: I'm not a math person. that's why I'm in a major which only requires 6 hours of it :o). my teacher, slightly boring yet taught well. I usually get the highest grades on the tests (minus last times.. heh) and my average is a solid high A. so it's nice but the final is over the whole semester which is just jibberish.
Spanish: I love my teacher. she's a grad student, and is very fun and delightful. she also dresses cute, and I sometimes am jealous of her shoes. She thinks I'm one of the more advanced students of the class and forces me to pronounce my last name correctly. ha. I've been inspired to study abroad in Spain, and I'm doing it the summer after my sophomore year! weeee. yay for spanish.
Art Appreciation: I have no feelings toward my teacher. I do however think it's cool that she seemed pretty lax with the course, and I learned a bit about artists and artwork. it was cool. Andy goldsworthy ( I think is his last name) is amazing ps.
I'm applying to be a CA for next fall. a CA is the same thing as an RA, they just have a different name for them here. anyways, you get free room and board, free meal plan, and also a paycheck. the reason for me wanting to apply is because i'm not sure if i'll have a car next year, and I want some cash. I'm filling out the app today because I don't want to do it over Christmas break because I'm going to have to do so many other things that I won't discuss because I like to keep some stuff private :o)
Ohhh!! I might go to the ROSE BOWL YAYUH. how amazingly fun?! UT football, and some of my lovers!
I am so very excited about the Holidays coming. We had a gift exchange between kim, dana, ash and me! well, i got some cool stuff. like EARMUFFS. hahah yessssss, amazing necklaces!!! and this awesome purse! Oh how i love the Christmas time! Carol of Lights was friday where they sing some songs, and do this little procession and then turn all the lights they've hung up on the buildings around memorial circle. it's gorgeous, i loved it! We have secret santa's coming up with the first floor girls and that should be fun.
things are starting to get better in the LBK, and I am very thankful for that. I'm still confused about what exactly I want/where I want to be, but I know God will help me figure it out. I'm working hard on improving other issues, and its fantabulous.
greys and DH tonight. life is good.
