On one hand, I have kicked ass for most of the semester; I've stayed on top of things, I've gone to a good majority of my classes and I didn't give up. I'm expecting B's at least in three of four of my classes. On the other hand, I definitely hit a brick wall a few weeks ago and lost control of some stuff, namely chemistry. I've missed the last couple of weeks of classes and I failed my last exam with a shining score of 56%. I haven't read the last five chapters because most of my time has been dedicated to bullshit papers and this ridiculous presentation. I guess I could've worked harder and, compared to the average student, I should be ashamed of my levels of procrastination. But for me, especially after last year, I have come a long way.
I guess this is me just rationalizing the fact that I have GIVEN UP on chemistry and will probably sell my book back after my 8-10 class, four hours before the exam. I'll probably have to retake it, but I'm so burnt out at this point that I don't even care. I considered not even taking the exam, but I have to give back a stupid piece of equipment that would cost me 33 bucks if I didn't return it. Some grade is better than no grade and I'll already be there, so why not? Maybe I'll just blow through it and leave early. I am DONE with this semester after my chemistry exam. I'll probably spend the rest of the day crying, laughing or sleeping...we'll see.
On the bright side, I got perfect scores on two big papers that I thought I did really badly on. I think they must have really low standards, because I found so many mistakes and a general lack of cohesion in both of them. Their bad, not mine.
