my roughest semester ever, and yet I still made the dean’s list!!

I got a 3.58… that’s three As and a B (: I received an incomplete in the PSY 285 class, but hopefully now that my mind is a lot clearer I can get an A by the end of the summer.

ok, it’s actually time to take that philosophy exam now. you know, the one I thought was on tuesday.

and then it’s time for sociology, lunch with my sister, and the longest nap of my life.

this has been the worst semester ever, but freedom is so close that I can taste it.

I’ve never before been this excited to go and see my parents… but, well, I guess I’m growing up. europe is going to be fucking amazing, and I just need to keep looking forward to that.

why the fuck am I so unorganized?

I try really, really hard.

and yet, I go to my 10 am exam only to realize that this is NOT my class…

and that my exam is on thursday at 10 am. 

of course, I didn’t come to this realization until after running around campus frantically for about 20 minutes, trying to find my class.

I am such an idiot.

first final exam of the semester, GO!

heading to the library right now, hopped up on caffeine, to last-minute cram for my logic exam which is worth 40% of my grade. wish me luck!!!

p.s. this is the earliest I’ve been up in ages. since when did I actually have drive and self-motivation? I got out of bed at 5:30. I think something’s wrong with me.

so fucking pissed off.

so, I have to make a blog summarizing a chapter from my research methods in psych textbook by midnight tonight. I have a partner, but he’s not in town so we can’t meet. I put up my half of the project, and he just did his at 2 am. I was super happy… until I actually checked out what he submitted.

this kid didn’t even READ the rubric. there’s so much shit he was supposed to include, but didn’t.

and now he won’t answer my emails, and I think I’m going to have to finish the project on my own…

now it’s seven.

still haven’t slept. took a break to go for a jog, which is strange because I never “go for a jog”. it was nice though, and now I feel more awake. eating a grapefruit and drinking some more coffee, then it’s back to work.

I will get this paper done if it’s the death of me.

Oh, god, I hate, hate, HATE people who do this. That is not the purpose of a powerpoint, it is NOT the right way to present. People who do this should be beaten about the head with something heavy. And have ppoint taken away from them.

I had an incredibly productive day.

I went to a counselor and found myself a therapist to meet with weekly, until the end of the semester. I aced a quiz, got an extension on a paper that I’ve been having difficulty with, and renewed my library books. I talked to the professor of my most stressful class, and given my personal circumstances (including both that I was doing excellent in the course up until a few weeks ago, and that I was recently diagnosed with GAD and put on new medication) he agreed to give me an “incomplete” in the course. Basically, he’s telling me to forget everything but studying for the final (which will be easy, because it’s an essay exam based entirely on the textbook, and those are my forte) and constructing my 10-page research proposal, for the final two weeks of class. My grade will be an “incomplete” at the end of the semester, and will not have any effect on my GPA (which is what I was really worried about). Then, I’ll have the summer to complete the actual experiment, analyze my data, and construct the 20-page research report. I’ll also have a two month extension on my two smaller projects/essays, and will have to turn them in by the end of June. My grade will be entered before the start of the next semester.

I am so fucking grateful for that last part. A huge weight has just been lifted off of my shoulders. Because of the overwhelming thought of tackling that research project (which I am so incredibly behind on that it’s not even funny), I’ve basically been doing nothing but distracting myself with mindless activities out of fear of getting too stressed and having another panic attack. It’s been effecting my other classes, because I’ve basically had no motivation for anything at all. But now, the next few weeks seem so much more manageable. I just need to apply myself, but I can do it. And once the stress of four other classes is gone, I’ll be able to tackle that project on my own time.

I’m really glad that I got out of bed today.
