My exam scores arrived.
US History- 3
Chemistry- 1
English Lang/Comp- 4
Chemistry one is no surprise, to be completely honest, but it's the History and English that bug me. My other history class (World History) is one I got a 4 in, and I pretested a -5- on it. And I was hoping for a 5 on English, but oh well, both 4 and 5 is worth the same amount of credit at the college I'm aiming for.)

Not bad! I managed a 5 on my senior English and a 4 on my junior English (I forget the names, just remember the years).
Totally bombed Biology though. Go 1! *highfive*

I really dislike my boyfriends mother.

No, at different times of the day. They're the rave to counter the rant.

Ooooh! Well, good luck on both of them! Hopefully they'll get into a recruitment war over you!

I find it ironic that apparently the part of vicodin that will kill you isn't the narcotic, it's the tylenol. So, this is going to be a lot more painful than I had hoped. I was sort of counting on the painkillers for the whole nervous system depression thing.
Bleh.
Bleh.

Barely had this mouse a couple months and it's already giving up. I wish they still sold the old, actual GOOD mouse I had before that finally died after 5 years of faithful service, instead of newer models that are worse and last like a year at best.

I have this $15 wired optical logitech mouse I've been using for about 4 years. Never given me a problem.
Shiri2009-07-11 15:54:51
Yes, that was my situation for about 5 years (except wireless due to my logistical situation here) but then it died and it's been pretty obnoxious getting a model as close as I can since.

So, I haven't really talked to people about this because it frustrates me but I just really need to.
I just graduated from school this past year and took all necessary measures to apply to law school. I wasn't able to apply as early as I wanted because although I had finished everything for my applications, the Coulcil requires all things in your application to be completed before they send it out. One of my professors decided to go M.I.A. for about a month and so her recommendation letter was still pending. I tried to call her, e-mail her, visit her office randomly just to catch her...nothing. After that ordeal, she e-mailed me casually saying, "I sent your letter!" I got accepted to a few good schools but I still hadn't decided what schools I really wanted to go to. So I decided to wait it out for my other schools. Time passed and it got really close to the deposit deadline. So I was faced with the decision to deposit $500 on one of those schools just to be safe or take a chance and wait for the decisions of the schools I prefer. Well, I'm a penny-pincher, so needless to say I didn't deposit. Lots of time passed and nothing from the schools. Finally, after months they told me they were still making decisions and would put me on a waiting list. I am -still- waiting for them. But it looks like I'm just going to have to do something else for this year. Which I don't really like because I like school. The real world scares me. And now my mother is afraid I'll get a job and never go back to school, so she complains all the time that I've made a huge mistake. The worst part about this whole thing is that during the entire process everyone I spoke to would begin their conversation with, "Hi, so have you made any decisions about law school yet?" or something along those lines. And I know it's childish but I just couldn't hear about it. I was so stressed out, I didn't need constant reminders. Still am. The thing is I have schools that I could still go to. They send me e-mails all the time. I just don't want to settle. I want to go somewhere that I'm really happy with.

My situation is somewhat like this. Currently, I'm studying in a school I'm not happy with, I mean, the decision to study in this school was not made by me - it was something my parents forced me to do. And so, here I am, trying hard and utterly failing to do all things to my full potential here because the thought of what would have been still haunts me each time I am alone. I say you stick to whatever makes you happy!

I'm in a similar situation and I agree, go make the decision that will make you happy. You just need to ignore them and do what you want to do. I'm pretty much looking at dropping out and changing a lot of things because I'm unhappy at the school I am at, which was my parents decision, and living at home, also their decision.
