So I took the GE 101 final last night and my Drug Use and Abuse test today. I didn't do so well on the GE test, but I think I can still manage a B in the class. I thought the drug test was pretty easy, considering it was only on the last few chapters we went over. I just realized about an hour ago that I only have two other finals to take. The chemistry one is this Friday, and my math one is next Thursday. This means I have Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday off. I'm finally feeling more relaxed about the tests considering most of them are over.

Today is Saturday. It was the last football game of the season. We lost 52-53. The last few minutes were ridiculous. The other team had six seconds and scored a touchdown with two seconds left. They went for two points. The quarterback threw the ball, our defender swatted it away, and one of the opponents ran it into the end zone for the two points. I got a B on my math test, which I'm happy about, but didn't do very well on my chem test. I'm still stressed out about this GE test on Tuesday. I know nothing about the material. I'm still really looking forward to winter break.

Today is the second day back from Thanksgiving break. I am pretty stressed out right now because I have a math test tomorrow and a chem test Thursday. I also have the Fiji final Sunday and a GE test on Monday. Then I have a Drugs Use and Abuse final on Tuesday. I still have to make the video, but I think it's going to be the demonstration of my ABE project.

Today is Wednesday, and I go home Friday for Thanksgiving break. I just took a GE 101 modeling test, which was kind of difficult. I'm excited to finally go home for a week, but after the break I look forward to finals. Yay! I registered for classes two weeks after I was eligible to, which sucks. Right now, I'm thinking about studying abroad. I really want to do Italy, but it depends how much it costs.

Math is getting a bit easier. I got a C on the last test, which is better than what I got on the first one. I now hope to get a 3.3 or above. I would be satisfied with that. The parties are coming to an end :( I still have to join some clubs. The Outdoor Adventure Club is the main one I want to join. I am still interested in studying abroad, hopefully Italy. I don't know when yet, tho.

I don't really have any surprises so far. However, I did expect the frat parties to occur longer than a few weeks. I hope to get a GPA of at least 3.0. I officially accepted my bid to Fiji a few days ago. I am pretty angry that the math section I'm in isn't curved or scaled. I'm still looking forward to doing something with the outdoor adventure club.

So far I've missed only four classes. One of which was totally cancelled because not enough people signed up for it. I took a drug course instead. Math is going horribly. It's really difficult and it is ridiculous that the class isn't curved. Dorm food is pretty decent. It's better than high school food by far. I like the steam car we're building in iFoundry. That's going pretty well.
