classes

I had my meeting with Dr. R. yesterday. It went how I expected. No big deal. I just can't miss class anymore, and I need to study a tad bit harder and not let outside stuff have an effect on my school work. He was pretty understanding about it, and we reviewed my exam. I think he wanted to throw pencils at me. I second guessed myself on some stupid stuff, and I didn't get adequate notes for the day that I missed when I had that cold/flu bug thing. I've realized how crappy some of the other students' notes are. They only write down what he writes down, and that doesn't cut it.

I spoke to my writing instructor yesterday about my second paper. We weren't "graded" on the first two papers, but completion was a part of it. We have to revise one of our first papers for our midterm, and I wanted to use the paper I had gotten back on Tuesday for that assignment. I felt that it was the worst of the two papers, and I could probably do a signifigant amount of revising on it. She felt the same way, as well. I got that out of the way and went to my sociology class.

I'm doing fairly well in that class, I think. I've made C+'s and B's on the tests, and gotten perfect scores on all of the quizzes and homework, for the most part.

Political science is going okay. I haven't heard about my midterm yet, but I still have a take-home essay part that I need to work on this weekend. I'd better make this one good! I did, however, lose the article that we are supposed to use for that assignment, but I got a copy of it. I lost it somehow while cleaning, which isn't very surprising to me. It happens.

I'm in the process of scanning notes for a classmate. While I appreciate her e-mailing me notes for the day that I missed, they just don't cut it. She sent me an e-mail last night asking when I'd get to it. Well, unlike you, I show up to class and I've had midterms all week. My priorities are my school work. You're on the bottom of the list. The thing is that I've spent almost 45 minutes scanning, compressing, and e-mailing these fucking notes. It's not like I'm able to take my ibook with me this semester and just e-mail you a .doc file. Gimme a break!
