Myrtle Beach

So, just got back from Statesboro, visiting my friends from high school. That was fun times and now I'm in Myrtle Beach South Carolina with my family for the week. The weather up here is absolutely gorgeous. I'm outside in the courtyard of the place I'm staying at and it's got to be maybe 70 degrees out right now and just a little breezy, mmmm love it.

Off to the BEACH!

Trying to Keep My Sanity

The last few days have been absolutely nuts. This week is finals week and I've been trying my best to keep from having a complete panic attack over this stuff. I had my Music Appreciation final last week so thankfully I don't have to worry about that anymore, however, this week isn't any more fun. I had my Government final on Tuesday which hopefully went well, I didn't study too much for it because, by looking at previous tests I have been doing pretty well on all tests with very little studying if any at all so I did a little extra preparation this time and just took the test and got it over with. Today is a little worse, though thankfully not too much more then Tuesday. I had a final paper due this morning which I got done, but then was promptly informed I was missing several other assignments that unless I did them, I would be failing the class. So thankfully my teacher was generous enough to give me until Friday to finish some of the major ones that would kill my grade if not finished. Then tonight I have my Grammar final, which, aside from sentence diagramming, I should be pretty good for. Hopefully I can at least pass it so I can keep my GPA up, it was one of those mistake classes where it seemed like a good idea and then inevitably, right after the withdrawal date, the teacher starts the difficult stuff so until then I thought I would do pretty well in that class, after then, not so much. So I have to take that tonight and then I'm officially FINISHED. The only things left to do after that would be to finish some of these missed assignments if I don't finish them before the end of today (which I'm trying to do) and then I just have to start my application process for GSU for the fall.

Bored on the Week Before Finals

So, it's the week before my finals start, that means it's crunch time, WOOHOO...not. So far this week, I have managed to skip most of my classes in favor of sleeping and studying basically 24/7. This week they were thankfully just doing review for finals in most of the classes so I just go to the few that I think I need help with and otherwise I just try to keep my mental sanity in tact, which often proves more difficult then it sounds.

Also, in news this week, I have switched my laptop to Kubuntu 8.04 instead of Ubuntu 8.04 just to try something new. So far so good, it has some quirks I'm not a fan of, but nothing I can't live with for now. Hopefully I'll find fixes for what I don't like in the near future.
