(no subject)
Oct. 1st, 2009 11:55 amSo today I switched my grading option for Discrete Math to pass/fail. I totally didn't even realize you could still do that because I thought you had to do grading changes by the add/drop a class date (which was weeks ago). But last night when I was working on my group project for DM, it was just going so horribly, and I'm not even interested in the subject (continuous math is infinitely better. Even Multivariate Stats was better than this, and I did not enjoy very much about that class), and if I'm not even going to minor in math, what's the point of the class? I'd be really pissed off, too, if I got a B in this class when there was no point in me taking it and I'm not even enjoying it. And as I said, I didn't think I could change it, but checked on the school website just to make sure, and it turns out the last day to change your grading option for a class is this Friday. And so I switched it this morning and now I feel a million times better. This is going to make this semester so much less stressful, seriously. Now I can focus all my energy on Directed Research (and a lot on Cognitive Psych, since psych is my major so grad schools will hold greater weight in my major GPA than my overall GPA) and I don't have to worry about Discrete Math!
Also, deciding not to minor in math is making me feel better, too. ( Long-winded stuff about math and college and random thoughts. )
I spent most of the beginning of the week feeling just absolutely sick. And it's not because I was physically ill, but because I was just so nervous about everything for this week and DM and all this stuff. But now I finally feel relaxed. So I'm hoping I made the right choice.
I haven't watched any TV since Monday, which is making me sad. Well, I don't care so much about not having seen, like 90210, but I haven't watched Glee yet! And I probably won't have time until tomorrow afternoon. bah. Maybe I'll find a window of time where I can watch it. That would definitely help even more in making me feel more relaxed. But I still have my Intro of my research project due tomorrow (to be fair, I'm just using the intro of the proposal I wrote last semester, so it's not like I have much to do. I just need to look for one article to support something I said that wasn't well-supported, and maybe edit my hypothesis a bit, but really I'm only looking at 2 hours of work at the most), a first draft of an essay for German (which is only 1 page double-spaced, and as I said, it's a first draft, so it won't be graded. But the better I do on it the first time, the less work I have to do on it the second time. And the subject is kind of harder than anything I've ever written in German before, so it'll take maybe an hour or so since I need to research some stuff first), and my German homework. Really, all that isn't too bad. I should be able to get it all done.
(After this week is finally through, I might be able to go back to flailing about TV and such rather than ranting about school and rambling about my future. But I still have another day or so to get through!)
