I am now completely done with Discrete Math! I totally half-assed the take-home final, but I think it's definitely good enough for at least a 50, so I don't care. I'm so glad I took that class pass/fail. We did course evaluations and I feel kind of bad because my whole evaluation of that class was so negative. I mean, I feel like it was fair, and I totally wasn't like... attacking him or anything. I think I sounded reasonable so he might actually take in my suggestions? But I only had like one or two positive things to say, and the rest was like "I didn't like this or this or this and I would've done this instead of this" and such. Oh well. Good thing they're anonymous. I also finished my last assignment for Cognitive Psych, so all I have left to do this semester is my German oral final (which is in less than an hour, so that'll be done with soon, and I'm pretty much done preparing for it. I actually think it should go really well, so yeah), my German written final Saturday, and my Cognitive Psych final Friday. So this afternoon/tonight and Thursday will pretty much just be spent studying for those finals. But I prefer that a million times to writing papers and doing projects and stuff. I know how to study for tests/finals. And I did super well on the Cognitive Psych midterm, and I've gotten As on all the German tests except the last one I got an 89 on, but I am definitely going to study for the final more than that test, and whatever, I really should be fine in the class. So I'm feeling loads better than I was a few days or weeks ago, but I'm definitely still looking forward to Saturday night being home. And then I might become less boring and talk more about fandomish and fun stuff and maybe make a few picspams rather than complaining about school and how much I have to do and how much it sucks! Yay!
I talked to my favorite psych professor yesterday about volunteering places and she wasn't as helpful as I would have liked (in that, she referenced me a bunch of places in St. Paul that I could look into that were relevant, but I'm hoping to volunteer/intern in Orange County and for that she was pretty much just like "You should look up these types of places/sites on the internet!" because she's not as familiar with the area), but I mentioned that I'm taking her Mood and Anxiety course next semester and that I'm super looking forward to it, and she was so sweet and positive and she was like "Oh I'm so glad you're taking the class!" and she remembered that I wanted to get into it and was asking her about it earlier in the semester, and just... she is the sweetest person I have ever met in my life, seriously. It was just really nice. And it'll be awesome having a class with her again, since the last class I took from her was spring of freshman year which omg was somehow already 2 years ago now! wtf is going on, I don't feel like I should be this near the end of college yet! Ah well.
Yesterday was the first day I didn't stop by Dunn Brothers and get a cup of coffee by like noon in... I don't know how long. Since I came back from Thanksgiving break, I guess. And I was totally crashing by 3 PM. It was ridiculous. I was working on my German oral final project thing with my partner, and she was saying stuff and I was just like zoning out and had so much trouble keeping my eyes open. So I had to go get coffee at like 6 PM to get through the night, which is kind of ridiculous. I didn't realize how dependent I had become on it. ugh I need to stop. It's such a waste of money. Hopefully being home for 5 weeks will break that habit since I won't be passing by a coffee shop numerous times a day.
Only 3 days left! At some point I need to remember to pack. Maybe I'll start tomorrow. Or I might have time Saturday after my final but before I leave (although Li wanted to get lunch together before I go, so I don't know if that'll work. But that might not end up happening because there are no set in stone plans, so whatever).
