well I got back from the JASS meeting and my big sib was revealed. her name is shauna, she seems like a really fun person. heh, and now its time for the coincidence of the week...at the Jass meeting there was a jar of candy and people were to guess how many pieces of candy were contained within. my guess was 79 and 3/8. I did it just in case some one else put 79 I would be 3/8 closer to the actual answer. guess what...it actually worked. I beat out my big sib, who I did not even know at the time by 3/8 and got the runner up prize. I thought it was funny...and to think people scoffed at my extra 3/8 guess. ok I gotta go, shower time then maf and study for bio...leights

well I have been sitting here for who knows how the hell long trying to figure out a math problem in my homework. the funny thing is that our teacher who assigned it did not teach us how to do the problem in the first place. so here I am stuck in a holding pattern over this maf assignment that I cannot complete. I told steph that I would try my best to figure it out since she has to get up early tomorrow and go to her internship...so here I am at 2:30 in the morn trying to teach myself how to do Lagrange Multipliers. Our teacher, who is usually very good at teaching the about the stuff that he assigns, totally did not explain this. it kinda pisses me off to because there is no way that I can really teach myself how to do this crap since the examples in the book are in now way like the problem that he wrote out for us. Ugh this week has suck diddly ucked. I cant wait for this POS week to end...or at least some one put me outta my misery. This is nothing but bullshit...everytime I look at that damn thing it gets me more and more angry...I also have to study for my bio quiz later today...hmm...and then I have three midterms next week in which I will have to study for...bio...chem...and ochem...I am not really too worried about bio since I understand most of that stuff...and ochem I feel like I know a fair amount in...but chem...I have no clue what the hell is going on in that class. I have a remote idea but it is VERY remote. I cant wait till this quarter is over. although I will have to take three labs next quarter...physics, ochem, and bio...not to mention that fact that I need a friggin job...ugh this is really stressing me out I need money and I cant find it...or maybe it cant find me...hmm...I gotta call sallie mae again, I applied, but they did not respond, and they sent stuff to my mom, which makes no sense to me at all...whatever, I am rambling now, better get back to work...or maybe go to bed I have not decided yet.leights

will this week never end...this has without a doubt been the crappiest week since the start of school...nothing seems to be going right....I am not going to get that job that I wanted because I did not get the email that told me to come in for an interview...I keep spilling everything...milk, chips etc. and I cant see to follow lab instructions either...argh..ok I need to get ready for class...next week and this weekend are going to suck too...3 midterms...yeah...leights

well I have a couple minutes for a quick blog...um I have been quite busy with skoo, I am actually studing and what not this quarter...yeah, I feel that I am actually going to do well this quarter, and hopefully every subsequent quarter after. I got a 90 on my bio midterm which is great news for me, I think that is the best score that I have ever recieved in davis. I missed a couple easy ones so that is pissing me off, I could have gotten a better score than that, but whatcha gonna do. I have a maf midterm tomorrow in which I have to study for. I also have a few chem labs that I hafta do. the chem server is down so not only do I have to finish a lab from last week, I also have to finish the lab for this week, and then I have to take a 10 question chemistry quiz online which is worth 20 points. I have my next couple midterms not this coming week, but the week after, so I get to look forward to that, I guess. I am also hoping to get a job, maybe work 15 hours a week. this is just going to make things more complex as I am going to have to swing a job and school...I guess it will be good for me. Its almost like have two full time jobs, I give mad props to the people that can go to school full time and work full time, thats gotta be a bitch and a half...oh well me go, maf time...leights

well just finished dinner with steph and her parents, I am not too sure if they like the chicken that I made, but I liked it...good ole crockpot chicken...good stuff. after dinner I burned three cd's for stephs parents (Ice Age, Monsters Inc., and Collateral Damage). Stephs dad and I had a conversation about computers, he was very knowledgeable about electronics, I was...well not surprised, because steph said that he knew a lot, but I was delighted to talk to him about computers. stephs mom remained outside in the living room watching telebision. I think it was a mixture of steven segal and animal planet. after about an hour and a half of talking about computers and stuff we went out and had the cheese cake that stephs parents bought (Thank You Mr. and Mrs. Chan) after cheese cake they had to go since stephs mom and dad are heading back to LA tomorrow. thats about all that happened today...hmm, my mind has kinda gone blank...ok me go...leights

well I got outta chem lab early today, it was a quick lab, only about 2 1/2 hours, we are alloted four which is a lot so I hope there is not a lab that actually takes that long, I think I would go INSANE with boredom if it ever did. I am supposed to call my parents because my mom wants to know a buncha stuff, but its too late cuz they might be in bed already...and besides my phone is deader than dead and is charging as we speak...that phone is a real p.o.s. it tells me I am roaming, but then I move a foot to the side I am fine again...and it can hardly hold a charage anymore. well to answer some of my moms questions that she asked on the phone, no I did not go to see red dragon for free, although they did show it on campus for free, but only half of the people that wanted to go see it acutally got in. Um, I kinda forgot the rest of the questions, hopefully they will accidently be addressed in the following blog. Lemme see where to start...well my classes are fine...biology is really looking good this time, considering that I understand everything that is being said...which was the case last year, its just that I need to slow down when I am taking the tests. I know that information so well that I just zip though the multiple choice questions without reading all of the posibilities, and thats not very good. I need to do well, I will get my first A this year, well at least that is what I am aiming for. Organic Chemistry, although at eight in the morn, is going well, I am understanding most of what is being said, and what I dont understand steph does and visa versa, so we can help eachother with stuff. regular chem is just as boring as ever. I am understanding a bit more than the past couple quarters because the professor speaks clearly, but I am having troubles remembering all of the chem 2A and 2B knowledge that I need for chem 2C... I need to review some of that stuff. math...I am actually understanding math no problem...at the beginning of the quarter I could not remember anything from my previous maf courses, so I had to study them all over again so I can recall what I am supposed to be doing this quarter in math, but fear not I am knowledgeable once again. chem labs are interesting now, you have to take a pre lab quiz online and get a perfect score in order to do that particular lab, if you dont get a perfect score within 3 tries you cant do the lab and have to make it up. and then the post lab exercises are being done online now, so now I dont have to turn in a lab report, but I still need to do the post labratory exercises. so thats a basic summary of my classes...now lets find out what congofeet (oh yeah third person) has been doing aside from school. I made a CV (cirriculum vitae) which is basically a resume, except fancier. it has your objective on it and other rewards you have received and classes that pertain to the job...but yeah I found a potenial job in the field that I want to major in so I applied, I dont know when I will find out if I got the job, but yeah I have applied for a job. I figure I will try and work 15 hours a week for a total of about 80 bucks a week, thats with taxes. I figure uncle sam takes about 22-23 percent of my money (I calculated that off of one of my old paychecks from Dunn Edwards). yeah eighty bucks a week will be nice if I get the job. hmm...thats about it...hopefully this quenches my mom and dads thirst for a blog...I'll try and type a little bit more often...ok...leights
