1:56 Early Saturday Afternoon (13 December 2008)   Wandering Around Columbia I hope Helena is having a good time in Columbia this Christmas. She was worried but I think she'll have a blast. Ah, I about died when I got my test results for microbiology back. 63%!! Man oh man, I haven't done that bad on a test since ecology last fall. I don't know how I could have done better, that's the worst part...I went to all the classes and took awesome notes and I studied for ages...so I feel pretty awful about it. Before I died, though, I went to my uni's website and checked to see if final grades had been submitted for any of my classes yet...somehow i scraped an A- out of micro. I feel like that's a cheap A- somehow, but hey, I'm almost certain now that I'll be keeping those scholarships. Got a solid A in Family Finance though...it helps to have a little bit of common sense sometimes. In other news, i don't really have to worry about it anymore because WHEEEEE the semester is over! Last night I went to Jeff's for an end-of-semester party. 16ish people were there and it was actually really awesome. There were people who drank their alkies, but no one was pressuring anyone else to drink - this is a change from some of the parties that I've gone to in recent weeks...a NICE change. Mind you, hanging out with Jeff and Caitlin etc. is rarely a bad time. On this particular evening, we played catchphrase for ages, then got in teams of 4 and played Cranium (well we tried, but it kind of dissolved into yelling random things and drawing obscene pictures...not that there's anything wrong with that). Then Emily and I got to talk for ages, which was great cos I haven't seen her in at least a month and have missed her a lot! and...my room is still an absolute mess. I really need to clean it though. maybe i should just start throwing stuff in boxes since i'm "moving out" tomorrow or Monday (to the basement). This room will then become my sewing room. so I also need to move the stuff from my previous sewing area into here. hmmm. too much to do and not enough motivation to do it.
