New year New Post

Well its 2007. Now normally this would signify being another year older and further in debt as the song goes, but this year its a lil different. While I certainly don't see myself running around grinning like an idiot all the time... I am somewhat lookin' forward to the coming year. Several good things can/may happen to me this year... which is a change for me. 1st and foremost is Graduation. yes Finally being done with the hell that is University of South Alabama! 2nd&3rd is of course New Job(preferably something I actually LIKE) and new location(the HELL outa Mobile)!! although technically not in 2007 my 4runner will be paid off in exactly one year from now. the only real problem I forsee in my immidate future is the dreaded return of former Supervisor at my post. hopefully that will end up not affecting me at all. ohhhh and evidently there is a bumper sticker out there that says... "do you think you could drive better if that cell phone was shoved up your A$$" I must now quest to find said bumper sticker!!! my only fear is that I may COVER MY ENTIRE VEHICLE with these if I find them.

Another Semester beaten into Submission

Well Fall Semester 2006 is finally over... and I am OH so glad. Lack of Sleep and much work ganged-up to make this a very stressful and unpleasant semester. I did however manage to scrape an A in my Pysch class...which is VERY important as the only thing holding back from Graduating now is...my Psych GPA. so that helped. I also got a B in Dr. Houston's class..which doesn't surprise me...I've gotten B's in all 4 of his classes... evidently he has an aversion to giving out A's! anyways this also means that I qualify for Dean's List(part timers) for the 3rd and LAST time. 1 more class to go...Woot!
Well work has been going okay...which means OF COURSE that something has to go wrong. it would appear that the FORMER site supervisor is coming home from Iraq and wants his post back. what this will mean for me...I have no idea. there are 4 slots available at my current post. and currently 4 people inhabiting those slots. so someone is most likely going to be transferred. if I should get to stay... I am not sure how this New/old Supervisor will be... generally I have a sense of forbodeing about all of this. as I only need this job for a few more months... my schedule is perfect the way it is... so it makes perfect sense that something should come along and screw it up royally!!! such is the way my life generally works. and on that positive and upbeat note... Merry Christmas everybody!!!

OMG

Ok... I took my Psych final Thursday, and came out of it feeling pretty confident that I had done well. well Friday just before I went to work I checked online to see what my grade was... and it was a 45 out of 100!!! I failed UTTERLY... and dropped my grade in teh class from a nice solid A to a high C. so I felt like I'd been kicked in the stomach... just walkin' around dazed... and generally being in shock. So I decided that after my War final today I would go to my professor and ask him what I did wrong on the final...answer... NOTHING. Silly professor forgot to weight the questions... I got a 90% not a 45. 3rd highest grade in the class...WOOT! this makes me feel much better. only my Paper left to be graded in that class if I do reasonably well I should get to keep my A for the semester...which would be very nice. After this semester I am done with my requirements for graduation. The only thing holding me back is my psych GPA. obviosly an A in a psych class goes a long way towards helping me in that regard. I don't think there is any way I can get less than a B in Dr. HOuston's class... so that one is not a worry... In short... I can feel free to drink my self into oblivion this evening in celebration of this extremely hectic semester being over... anybody wish to Join me?

Sorry #$%&*

Ok... so today was my final in psychology. now the only thing holding me back from graduating is my GPA in my psych major. so that means if I do well in this class I'm 1 BIG step closer to graduating. so I know I have to work a 12 hr. shift wed. night... and get off at 6 am thurs.... go home... crash for 3 hours or so... get up and go take my final. I explain this VERY carefully to the guy that has to relieve me in the morning. So what does RETARD do...SHOWS UP OVER AN HOUR LATE!!! the one day I need that sorry #$%*er to show up close to on time!!! If I screwed up that test cause I was tired I'm gonna set his damn car on fire... WITH HIM IN IT!!! In other news.... ok... there is no other news... for the last week all I've done is study for this damn test and work on my final paper for this class... so I have done lil else newsworthy. Damn I hate people.

Not a happy camper

well I finally managed to drag my sorry butt to War class. I got a "B" on my midterm in that class :( I really think the damn cellphones going off during the test affected my grade. I still have a "A" in the class, but only barely. Now I must make sure I do well on my next Article summary due Friday. My Role-playing game got canceled Monday which really sucks, becuase I have lil else(other than Pizza) to look forward to and get me thru the week. I am still thinking there is some outside baleful influence jinxing my games! Still working 12 hr shifts at work... which really sucks!!! I NEED a laptop. honestly I am so bored at work...I would love to be able to at least play solitare or something. is there a "donate laptops to the needy" organization somewhere? I looked on Ebay for one, but they are so damn expensive... the cheapest I saw was like $275.00 and since I'd be hard pressed to afford $2.75 I will continue to be bored while at work.
