GAAH STORAGE

CMU Storage is the stupidest thing ever. Only open for two hours… only open at select times… not nearly enough room in some of the places… no easy way to get boxes to the storage places…

Yeah so, last night Keith and I put our boxes in storage. My arms *still* hurt. Blah. I wanted to store in Donner. I got boxes there. Then it filled up. Keith and I had to move the boxes from there up to Hamerschlag. Suckage.

Had the most amazing Japanese food last night… a little on the expensive side (the most I’ve spent on a meal in forever), but it was worth it. Mmmmm. Soooooo good.

I’m so behind on everything I have to do… which right now means studying for 18100, studying for 80180, working on the Center for School Outreach website, and relaxing. Meh. Psychologist at 4.

This song is great. Yay for FFVII: Advent Children soundtrack!

Finals #1 and #2 done

213 was yesterday. At first, looking through it, my thought was “OMFG I’m going to fail.” Then I actually started working through the problems, and you know what, they were all doable. The exam itself was nothing like any of the practice exams I looked over (which is probably why it scared me at first glance), but everything on there was reasonable and doable if you understood the material. I feel good about it.

Then today was combinatorics exam. I went into it feeling generally doomed. Then we got the exam. I looked over it. First problem… oh, it’s just combinatorical proofs of two identities. Easy. Second problem… one of the nice probabilistic method proofs Easy. Third problem… a bunch of true/false with justifications… relatively easy. Last problem… two of these five proofs… oh, one is just inclusion/exclusion, and one is just marriage theorem… easy!
I finished in about 50 minutes, double checked all my work twice (took about another 30), and came out feeling quite confident in my answers.

So yeah, my first two finals went quite well.

Tonight is the 312 final. That should be scary. Hopefully I’ll do okay on it though. I feel like I know the material relatively well, I just may have some trouble applying it.

Whee. After tonight, I should be stress-free until next Monday. Not too worried about 18100 exam, and now that my ‘A’s in 213 and 21301 have been relatively assured, I don’t need to really worry about 80180 either.

Meh x 3

I’m feeling a little better, I guess. I’ll really feel better after the finals tomorrow, since they’ll be the worst of the 5 I have.

In case anyone’s curious, the past two days’ posts weren’t directed at anyone specific. I just felt kinda neglected and stressed in general and just kinda broke. Meh. Apologies.

I don’t even know why I’m stressing about finals so much… it’s not like they’re seriously going to affect my grades in any class unless I seriously bomb any of them. 213 is almost guaranteed to be an ‘A’, same with 312 (although I am seriously afraid of that final), same with photo (no final to worry about anyway), same with 18100. 21301 is weighted as such that I need a 33% on the final to get a ‘B’ or a 75% to get an ‘A’. 80180 is kinda meh… we have every possible question that could appear on the final. I need to stop worrying about grades anyway. Meh.

(Talking about the 213 final)
Keith: Someone set up us the bomb the final
Me: We get signal handler?

tmoss: trying to use a fictional work in a fact based paper is full of the crack
tmoss: you have to make EVERYTHING a metaphor
alanv: i boned your mom last night
tmoss: well, if you bone is media
tmoss: and my mom is the general public
tmoss: then i means that the media fucks the general public in the ass untill there is no fucking life left in them

Meh x 2

Yeeeeah, waking up from a dream that literally has you crying for 15 minutes is NOT a good way to start a day.

Thanks to Alisa for the huggles though. <3

I just want to go somewhere and drink until I stop feeling anything and get totally drunk and pass out and not have to deal with life right now. Meh. If only I was 21.

Alas, combinatorics study guides and 213 old exams beckon.
