So I'm in a really weird mood. I am feeling a mixture of laziness, motivation (???), sadness, and joy. First, I am feeling lazy because of my frantic studying on Sunday to prepare for my midterm yesterday (which BLEW) and being sick. I forgot entirely to do my postlab on Webassign so I had to take the automatic extension and get 40% off. Then I was too lazy to do all of my prelab so I only got 44% on that. (It doesn't actually matter because I ended up with 85% total in the class and you only need 60% to pass on the credit/no-credit lab course).

Regardless, my day seemed dismal because despite an iffy 3.5 on my Spanish paper, I didn't do as well on my exam as I wanted to. Yikes. Then I sat in bio lecture in a bad mood despite a cute little plant gift from my adorable old man professor-- I gave the plant to Jake to add to our roof-top jungle we're trying to grow. Dr. Ford is really funny. He frequently goes on tangents. Like today, we were learning about cell walls and how they have pectin, which is what you put in jams. He went on to tell a cute story about how he made lime marmalade and grated granny smith apples into it to thicken it up. Adorable!

Moving on... In physics lab I found out that my awful first physics midterm grade (79/100) was actually FABULOUS because my class is composed of even bigger dumbasses than me! The average was a 49. Hence my motivation to study, despite my more impertinent desire to be lazy because of my sickness.

Also, I went on the elliptical and did a mile and did some abs with Squeak so I'm not a complete sedentary slob.
