6 more days till Spring Break!

I have a B+ in econ (before the midterm)!! Yay for me! Now for the sad, yet true story behind my grade. I have the 5th highest grade, which you think is PRETTY neat when there's 24 people in the class, but when you find out the highest grade is an 83.2% you get kind of depressed. When you find out that the 5th highest grade (that would be mine) is a 70.9% you get even MORE depressed. Yes, the truth. There is only 6 people in my class with a 70.0% or higher out of 24 people. Does that say something about the professor? I'm not quite sure. My grade, though, is considered a B+ when he curves it. I need a 73% in the class to make an A- and an A, is considered at 81.7. There's no B-'s, four B's, two B+'s (70.9, 70.1), two A-'s (73.3, 74.6), and two A's (81.7, 83.2). Interesting, huh?

The midterm (or Econ final) is on Thursday. I need to do well on it! It's worth 50% of my grade!

Next week is kind of weird...

Monday: Stat homework due (our only 2nd homework), ASL dialogue (as normal)
Tuesday: Bio hw due (as normal), (most likely) a bio quiz, two econ homework/quizzes due, econ practice test needs to be completed (my own personal due date)
Wednesday: ASAP for bio, stat class (project development day, I think), work for 4 hours, video workbook due for ASL
Thursday: Bio (who knows what!), econ final (*cringe*)
Friday: Goin' to the dunes to do transects

I guess it's not weird, it's just full and it's the WEEK before Spring Break so it seems long, boring, and whatever else. I guess the work day within that makes it seem weird. I'm not sure.

I got called in to go to work tonight for 3.5 hours. It wasn't bad. It felt kind of weird working though. Course, I seem to be getting called in a lot. Seems almost every week work calls now (not just for going in). Though, next week I already know. I'm sure if I didn't go in tonight, Tracy (my GM), would have called me later. It's cool, though. I almost feel more productive going in for a few hours than I do going in for a full shift. It's fun to see everyone too since I normally only work once a week on Friday nights.

Well, that's all for now. Mainly wanted to tell about my Econ grade. I got a lot to work on before Tuesday for that class. Gotta make new flashcards for my new bio stuff we went over, also. I'm going to have a MASSIVE stack of bio flashcards before this test comes in another 4 weeks or something. I need to do well in the class though. I want an A in it! So I've gotta work.

All for now
