well this semester is pretty much over. there’s one more week and one more test and that’s it. then it’s one month of vacation before the Spring semester begins.

so..

• passed my karate test. technically i hold an orange belt in shito-ryu karate-do genbu-kai now, but they didn’t have a belt in my size on the night of the testing so i don’t physically possess the belt. whoops, but oh wells.
• in all seriousness i have almost definitely failed my drawing class. i hated that class all semester and it’s the one thing that made this semester lose some of its enjoyment. go figure.
• i don’t know what my score in Korean is, but i think that i passed the test. the instructor is leaving for another state this weekend, so i won’t be seeing our test results. i’ll just see my final score when the university gets around to posting them. it’s sad, i really liked this class.. it was so much fun, and our instructor was a great person. i’ll actually miss it all.
• abnormal psychology isn’t through yet. we have one more test next thursday. current score in this class is 85/100, which is pathetic compared to what i absolutely could have made otherwise but hey, the next test should bring that up to 90 or so, so it’s all good in the end.
• oh, and “life time fitness concepts”… i guess i passed that? i have no idea, nor do i know what my grade will be in that class.

I am concerned about my GPA as a result of the drawing class and possibly the final grade in lifetime fitness. after all, i attend the university on funding that i receive based solely on my grades. on the other hand i guess this shows that i’m only human and that i have my limits too.

it’s been a strange semester. it’s simultaneously been both the best semester, thanks almost specifically to the Koreans on campus (you’ve all just been great ^.^), and the worse.

sure i’ll have to repeat drawing some time in the future, but i have a better idea of what to expect and hell, i may just create some drawings before re-enrolling into that class, put them up some place, and then use those drawings at the end of the semester for my out-of-class work. that way i have no farking rush to get crap done. gods, but i can’t express enough how much i loathed that class’ out-of-class requirements.

imagine being required to calculate a 30 to 60 minute mathematical formula every day, at home, as a class requirement for no other reason than the instructor loves their subject too much and thinks that no one should think that it’s a big deal and should have all of the time in the world for their oh-so-precious bull shit. then at the end of the semester, just because nothing else that you’re doing could possibly be of equal or greater importance, you have to do five extra long equations during dead week.

ain’t that cute? yeah. only it they were drawing assignments and not mathematical equations, but they’re both the same to me and now you’re getting the idea.

anyway enough of that. now i’m just getting all fucking emo.

this isn’t the tone that i had in mind when i started out this post. i’m kind of starting not to care though, ya know?

i need that fucking vacation.
