Past couple of days
Has been pretty interesting. I have all three test results back and the results are good/ok/blah: 82 (human communication)/76(American Government)/66(astronomy with an 18 point curve *sigh*). What’s ironic is that I studied human communication the least; I studied American Government the most. What does this mean?
I looked back at my tests and I hate it when you look at answers and you realize that you are an idiot for answering it the way you did. There were several problems where I looked back and I noticed that I should have gotten them right. For example, in astronomy, one t/f question asks: the third quarter moon rises at noon. I chose true; it’s false. The third quarter moon rises at midnight and sets at noon. Gah that sucks.
What killed me in astronomy was not studying the last couple of lectures more thoroughly, but I thought I was prepared. In American Government, that was just a lack of thinking and not carefully reading two sections, but that’s okay. Oh yeah, in Astronomy, the professor will drop the lowest grade so it’s all good.
Anyway, things have been pretty wild for my friends. Amanda is having a problem dealing with [I See A Moron] on FOD. Liz had some kind of problem with someone logging into her diary and writing some entry, but I don’t know the full story.
If you saw me on your favorites saying I updated, I did but I had it on private because I didn’t have a whole lot of time to write (I forgot why though…). I ended up deleting that entry. I haven’t felt like checking faves for some reason and that is uncharacteristic of me. Usually, I’ll check faves like 2 or 3 times a day. Tonight, I had like 25 faves to check! That took me about an hour to complete but I’m happy because I have that out of the way :-).
Check out my front page. Thanks to [HTML Help], I put up flaming thingies to go with my background *smiles*. Oh yeah, I have a new nickname by my roomies. Instead of “Big Joe”, I’m “Killer Joe” *rolls eyes*. Speaking of which, I have seen all of my former roommates recently so that’s cool.
I have a midterm in Global Issues on the 8th of October so that should be fun. My weekend plans are to read assignments for Global Issues tomorrow; eat at my aunt’s and hang around until the football game and then come home. On Saturday, there is a karate tournament I’m going to to judge and then I don’t know after that.
Before I leave though, I want you to think about this when you’re leaving me a note.
Do you really know the diarist behind this diary? What about when you’re reading your favorites? How well could you hope to know a diarist just by reading their diary? I’ll write more soon about this. Have a good Friday!
Fall rules!

Man! I hate tests too. I got a 68 on my chemistry test, a D. I made stupid mistakes. Now most were legit conversions I didn’t understand, but I got zinc and copper mixed up purely because I read the one question that weas copper. and the question that was zinc together before answering either, and I didn’t go back to check and make sure i wasn’t screwing up, there went 4 points, Could have got a C

Don’t worry too mcuh about your test results, besides, they were good! Sometimes we rush in exams and don’t read questions properly, or get a little stressed, stuff like that can affect what grades you come out with. Well done anyway Killer Joe (he he), you should be proud of yourself. I’m sorry about someone logging in Liz’s diary, that’s just plain rude. I’m gonna e-mail you now! 🙂

i know what you mean by the test i do it all the time 🙁 but im sure things will look up for you on ones in the future…..the last question in your entry really made me think i think you can tell a lot about a person from what they write in their diaries but then everytone has a deeper hidden meaning to them it kinda makes me wonder about what we all have in store Jocelyn

I like the question about knowing the diarist behind the diary. That’s a very cool line of thought to persue there, Joe. :0) Don’t worry if you miss out on checking up on your favourites- they’re your favourites because they’ll look forward to the next time you can note, whenever that is! :0) I am not on AOL much lately- so hopefully we’ll chat soon! :0)

Hey! Thanks for the notes you’ve left me lately. I started the new dd cause somehow my notes disappeared on the other one. *sighs* I SEE A MORON has finally laid off once more, maybe this time she’ll chill out for good. As for the thing with Liz tell her i’m sorry will ya. She’ll know what for. I’d tell her myself, but she’s not accepting my emails or IMs. *bows head* Well I’m gonna go. Bye, Manda

Oh by the way…i’m taking off for a few days. So if anything gets written in my DD it won’t be me writting. It’ll be either Davey or one of the lyricals that helps me keep up this diary i’m signed in on. I’ll explain everything when i come back. I PROMISE! Manda
