I made this for you

I made you a picture of what I looked like three weeks ago, back when I was awesome and rode my bike to school. 

I'm still awesome, I just don't ride my bike to school ^_^ 

5 hours and 45 minutes

That's how long I have spent in the Testing Center in the last two days.  One test took 4 and a half hours and the other one took 1 hour and 15 minutes and I forgot to answer one question. 

BLECH!!!

On the bright side... wait... there is no bright side. 

Ok, maybe there is a bright side.  I will be done with classes in three weeks... at least until Fall semester starts two weeks later...

My Poor Hands

Remember how I told you about how I slept on my hand and it turned into a swollen monster (the part after my brain exploded).  Well, I've sort of been beating up on that hand this last week.

You see, once upon a time I went away for a weekend and my finger got bit my something that might have been a mosquito, but now I'm not sure because it swelled up so much and there were like three bites on it and it doesn't really look that much like a mosquito bite, but I'm not sure.

Then once upon a time after that, I was throwing some laundry in the dryer and maybe I slammed my thumb in the door to the dryer, which apparently is quite sharp, because now there is a cut on my thumb and it hurts quite a bit.

School and Holidays don't mix

As I may have mentioned before, I am taking classes this summer.  There are two of them and they are both pretty difficult. 
First, there is Chemistry.  I am sort of retaking this class, so it is a bit easier than it would otherwise be, but the work is accelerated to fit into a summer term.  So that cancels out the easy. 
I did, however, rock the first test.  I got a 90% on the multiple choice portion and am waiting to hear about the written part, but I have high hopes.

My second class, feels like a different story.  It is Calculus.  I took calculus in high school, five years ago.  This means it is all forgotten (not that I learned very well the first time).  So it is a lot of hard work and it is accelerated.  It makes my head explode and it makes steam come out of my ears.  I feel like I understand a lot of it, then I try and work out a problem and I get it wrong.  My first test is tomorrow (yikes!). 

BUT, regardless of if I am understanding anything of what I am learning this summer, I should not have to turn in assignments on the day that I am celebrating my country's independence.  I should be able to go out and party with no cares in the world.  I shouldn't have to be jealous of the laughter that I am hearing outside, while I slave away at a computer trying to figure out why my answer is not acceptable.  ALSO, I shouldn't have assignments that are normally due on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, be due on a TUESDAY, unless specifically told by the teacher that it would be so.  ALSO, how in the world did everyone else in the class know it would be due? 

Never take classes during the summer if you have plans to actually do anything else. 
You will die.
