  Once again, I have woken up bleary-eyed and somewhat peeved that it's time to get out of bed. So I hit the snooze... which ultimately results in my being "just on time" for my 9 AM meeting. Putting me in a BAD mood. But the meeting was good. So were the bagels (MAN I love bagels...). So I'm sore, I'm tired (but I'm full -- MAN I love bagels...), and I go to check my email.
And GRADES are posted. Uh oh. I took two classes this past quarter -- one was a seminar that I had to give, and I know I got an A on that. Which leaves the only unknown as my Proteins Biochemistry class -- two exams (midterm and final). Nothing else. 8:30 AM class (so of course, I'm consistently late EVERY day unless we had an exam or I had to pull something from an incubation before that time, since I am incapable of getting up early and being on time for anything.
) My thought process: "Do I really want to know how I did? " "What if I did badly? " "I wonder how much he scaled it... I did good on the midterm, so I wonder how much I can get away with stinking on the final..." "CRAP! " "yikes... that was a hard final. " "I FAILED!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! " So I pulled up my grades... messed around a bit to find the quarter I need to look at... (And of course this past quarter isn't showing, because that would just be bass ackwards... THIS COMING quarter is up. HELOOO... Registrar? Um... grades haven't been posted for winter yet! ) I GOT AN A!
:-) Yay. MAN I love bagels. And MAN I love A's. But I'm still tired...darn WT and FC and another friend have conspired against me to keep me up late playing Monopoly AGAIN. At least I got home and slept in my own bed for a bit...= TIRED. Yet elated, frustrated, scared, lonely, isolated, happy, excited, content, anxious, worried.
(I'm learning to get in touch with my feelings this week -- it is humanly possible to feel multiple things at once. ) Internal struggle ensues (something like WWE cage match perhaps?). Striking a balance is a very difficult thing -- between time for me and time for my friends. MUST... DECIDE... PLANS... FOR... THIS EVENING... How about for right now I go focus on what I'm really supposed to be doing now?
...WORK...
