Day 21 - March 23, 2008

and again i rise out of the pit of sadness only to be pushed back down.

yesterday was great once i got into Washington. hung out at my sister's place for a little bit, then went to my sister's boyfriend's cousin's house in Oregon. we went down to the beach where the Goonies was filmed, and i had raw oysters for the first time (they're not for me, but not horrible).

I had some great conversation as well.

this morning i awoke at a decent time, and found a Rubik's cube in my basket.

i have been messing around with it ever since. i'm a horrible nerd for not having owned one up til now, but i really want to develop an algorithm to solve it that isn't the one provided in the little solution manual.

i also got a great shirt. if any of you read XKCD (great comic online) you will recognize the compiling shirt from the store. i have it now (yes!!!).

i'm such a nerd. lol.

and i checked what grades were already in.

i have 2 B's so far.

then i decided to look at my official grade profile.

and there it is, again.

an F

in calculus II.

my heart sank, and i haven't felt good since. i know that everyone (the university as well as my parents) is judging me based on this quarter, since it will be an integral part of me being able to stay where i am.

so now i feel like crap, again.

o well.

i'm used to it now.
