It all started last night at 12:05 when the power was expectedly cut (I say expectedly cause I was informed it would happen but was seriously counting on it being a major hydro mistake), anyways the power went out and I couln't finish studying for my stats exam to be taken 10 hours later. Ironically the chapter was on "effect size" and "power", let tell you what the size of the effect of not having power is: EPIC statistics exam FAIL. That's what the effect size and power have to do with each other in relation to me and studying. EPIC FAILURE.
So I asked my parents to wake me up at 7:30 so I can get some extra studying in, well my emergency 8 AM alarm went off and I got out of bed, so that's 30 mins of wasted studying time.
I then got into the car 8 mins earlier than normal (8 mins less to study) so I could put gas in the car since Mom called and told me it was 93 cents the day before and I had forgotten to fill up when I saw it at 99 cents. OBVIOUSLY. so I get in the car, early enough to fill up my tank before my exam, and lo and behold - gas is at 105!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thats a whole 12 cents more per fucking litre, which computes to an extra $5 or so. Now $5 isnt alot but when you fill up once a week, 4 times a month, 12 times a year = it comes to $240. thats an extra 24 pizzas, 24 chinese food meals, 240 items at the dollar store + tax, and 240 I'd be missing out on.
So instead of filling up, I drove to class, got to class right on time only to see that Corinne saved me an end seat which meant it would be significantly harder to cheat (which I clearly needed to do to pass)... get the exam start writing it and realizing I didnt memorize any of the definitions, and knew very close to NOTHING. Talk about EPIC FAILURE. Finish exam with a minute left in class. And go to Social Psych.
So... I wrote my social psych midterm what? close to 3 weeks ago and I still havent gotten my mark, the OP scan machine was apparently fixed before Tuesday, since she told us that we would have the exam marks today, so all excited I go to class expecting a mark. OBVIOUSLY I set myself up for failure cause she hasnt computed the marks yet. FUCKING BITCH.
Go my stats lab which clearly there is no joy in going to due to the EPIC FAILURE of a morning... and I'm told class will be short (which on every other 2nd thursday would be great due to the lack of RM conference from 4-6). however this week is in fact a conference week and I therefore need to be in school til 4, so the extra 45 mins of break-ness between the classes was seriously unwelcomed for lack of homework to do and sheer boredom.
Get to my RM class, she's handing back the assignments we resubmitted last week + the new work that was due last Thursday. Seeing as how my original mark prior to resubmission was 4/5 I thought I was doing fairly well and my resubmission with corrections would be at least equivalent to a 4/5 or higher, but was I wrong!!! I got a 4/5 in addition to "make an appointment with me so we can discuss the problems with your paper" HELLO - 4/5 = 80%, 80% is a pretty decent grade!!! I'm so confused, either way it was a major crimp in my day, which already sucked.
This post sucks which is making my day significantly worse and now I'm just so angry that I'm going to bed. Probably because I've had a tension headache since about 5:45 when Randi came home and insisted on making Chinese food for dinner - like I dont eat Chi-Chi Cuisine often enough on my own!! argh.
