A Bulldozer, with a wrecking ball attached!

December 24, 2007 at 2:19 PM - 1 comments - link
    Since we last spoke, finals went pretty well. I ended up with 3 Bs and a C for the semester. That C is killing me, because I know I should have done better in my database design class, but I slacked a little too much. One of those B's is killing me too, because it's an 89.2% B and I guess my professor wasn't feeling the Christmas spirit when she decided to hit the 'B' key instead of the 'A' key.
    We spent a couple of days on campus after school had concluded to practice. The weather was NOT cooperating, and one day, we actually had to shovel snow off the track to run on it. If this were a movie, we'd be the hardworking underdog, with little to no facilities, training to take on the rich, established champion of the world or something. Sort of like Mr. T in Rocky III.

    Currently I'm back home in Kankakee, where the weather is WORSE than E'ville. I went for a 3 mile run the other day, and couldn't even see the sidewalk. I had to run in the street, and that was filled with snow and slush as well. My Grandma is cooking up a storm, and I'm loving that. I'm going through about 4 movies a day, and quickly running out of things to watch. My uncle and aunt and some cousins are up here visiting from the Bahamas, and I haven't seen them in a while, so it's cool to get to hang out with them. I'm pretty much just ready to be back in the Ville and getting ready to open up on the 11th at Mizzou. MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone.

you may be able to get both of those grades changed. talk to the profs about auditing the class or doing an additional assignment for a grade change, it worked for me. the worst they can tell you is no -
