Oh the finality
Well, its becoming one hell of a week. I need to pause and catch my breath, so sorry if this entry doesn't seem to have much of a point. It's just therapeutic.
I got into all of the classes that I wanted for the fall. Here's my schedule as of now
Mondays: 11:00-12:00 Great Issues in Science, 1:00-2:00 Genetics
Tuesdays: 8:30-10:00 Neuropsychopharmacology, 10:00-12:00 Organic Chemistry
Wednesdays: 11:00-12:00 Great Issues in Science, 1:00-5:00 Genetics
Thursdays: 8:30-10:00 Neuropsychopharmacology, 10:00-12:00 Organic Chemistry, 1:00-5:00 Organic Chemistry
Fridays: 11:00-12:00 Great Issues in Science, 1:00-2:00 Genetics
Yup, I'm happy about that. I'll also be TA-ing a section of Research Design and Analysis. Fun stuff, I need to keep it fresh too so that will be helpful.
On a side note, perfectionism is driving me insane these days. Some days I can kick back and be shitty in my ballroom class and not care, other days (and many recent days) its almost incapacitating. Thursday I missed class because I was asleep, and today I felt so horribly behind and I couldn't figure shit out, and my partner isn't the best at explaining and....ugh! I just wanted to quit, go cry somewhere, and be done. That's been seeping into Mock Rock as well, if my partner misses a day, or if my brain is fried and I can't bring up the presence of mind to remember the steps (that's what it takes for me) then I just get so frustrated and then I just can't even be civil. I hate this. I need to just get over it, I realize that.
On another side note, this week and the following weeks are going to kill me. I've got a test in Vascular Plants that I have YET to start studying for, and I'm not really sure even how to go about that. I also have a test in Neuroscience tomorrow, at least for this one I've really studied the first half of the material. Also I have a lab quiz in Biology 210, which freaking scares me because its in Lab that I've been losing the majority of the points in the class. Tonight I am booked solid with commitments from 5pm until at least 11pm.
Friday I've got a test in Cell and Molecular Biology, which is a huge portion of my grade and I MUST do fantastic (ie: lose less than 5 pts on a 100pt test) or I'll lose my 4.0.
And its Greek Week, so things are just generally crazy in the social realm...and I'd like to be able to enjoy a little bit of that...;-)
Blah. I swear I will recover from this with my GPA intact....
