Hey all,
My blasted internet has been down since Fri morn and was only resurrected today! Can you say withdrawal symptoms? /images/wink.gif I feel so out of the loop. How are all you ppl doing? Me, you ask? Well, I had my organic chemistry test today, and after 5 days of studying, things were beginning to look bleak. I mean, this stuff is REALLY hard - you have to memorize all these reactions that you have to do in order to get a certain chemical compound and you need to be able to apply this knowledge in order to retroactivally synthesize some shit that only chemists need to be able to know how to do and why this retarded school is making me take this course or else I can't complete the program of study that I chose, which is so unrelated to organic chemistry, it's not even remotely funny, I'll never know! So, I started to panic, as I knew absolutely nothing, and prompted by the impending doom, I calculated that I could get 25% on this test and 23% on the exam and still pass the course. But, today I realized that even the 25% was quite a stretch, and thought I would get something more along the lines of a single digit. I was so disheartened at the prospect of summer school vs. 4 glorious months of freedom. Sigh. So, I write this thing, and I compared answers with my genius friend, and I may have gotten like mid-60%!!!!!!!!!!! That means I can get even less than 23% on the exam! No summer school for me!!!
WOOHOO!!!!!!
Ah, and guess what? I listened to Yield this morning. That had everything to do with my success! The boys came through for me, yet again!
They always do /images/smile.gif
