A yearbook story

So...the yearbook chairperson, who will remain totally anonymous, but certainly humiliated, had the kids choose the cover and they chose the cover with the "beautiful waterfalls." As you can imagine, this did not go over well with the principal, superintendant and of course, the district's solicitor. Today, the committee was ripping off the "beautiful" covers and were dutifully replacing them the more secular cover below. Trust me, I giggled all day! In fact, I get to see the chairperson alot, so I am trying not to "cross" her...but I just can't help myself!!!

In case you were wondering...

I got a 2.0 in chem!!! Yeah me! I totally passed the class! Brought my cum down to a 3.07, but who the hell cares???

There are those days!

I have finally gotten the house under my control! Well, at least there aren't little piles of fluff everywhere! Yuck!

OK, the chem final was the EASIEST of all the tests I have taken with my pompous chem prof, but since I am taking him again, I am going to settle for NICE, pompous chem prof!
Nutrition was sooooo easy, I almost cried! Sha! At least one 4.0 on the the old report card!
YEAH!!!!!

Finalllyyyy...Finals!

Got thru the math final. Pretty sure I did ok. It was all multiple guess. The very first problem gave a helluva time! But, I figured out my mistake and I KNOW I got it right.

Bio final in about 45 minutes. I just finished studying. I know what I know for the first half on chapter 7... The rest of the final is a crossword puzzle and we can use our notes! God, I hope it's as easy as the rest of the puzzles I finish! ( Pray, pray, pray!)

Tomorrow I have my chem final...no big hopes there. It's all multiple choice, so I am screwed. Oh well, thank goodness I am re-taking the course.

I will also have my nutrition final tomorrow and then I am done. (Hurray!!) I only have to get a 70% to receive an A in that class...pressure's off!

I won't know what to do on Wednesday...well, maybe I will SLEEP!

Missing my life

Final stretch for me! I finally got a decent grade in chem...besides the 96% in lab, I got a 74% on the last exam! I took my lab practical this morning and I feel like I did preety well on it. I have my last CLASS in about an hour, so now it's crunch time for finals.

I will be studying in spite of prom this weekend...and the beautiful weather!

I also miss having my laptop...no hints...just feels weird not having it at my disposal. I think I am way too attatched to my electronics!

I love a Genius!


The only real valuable thing is intuition.- Albert Einstein
Did you know...?
He didn't really speak until he was 3 years old. He felt he couldn't get the words right!
Upon looking at his baby sister Maja for first time, he asked,
"Yes, but where are the wheels?"
He really didn't flunk math...in fact, he taught himself calculus at the age of 12!
He did not graduate from high school.
He did not receive a doctorate from Zurich Polytechnic.
He flunked a Physics course.
And...he had no use for mathematics. At least at first. You see,
he really didn't see the realtionship between math and physics until later! A point he later regretted. In fact, he needed tutoring before he developed the Theory of Relativity!

Oh! The drama...Days of Our Lives!

Bright Happy Voice:
So, Darlin' Daughter had her first "real" date with Dave when we were in Cleveland. They are only "DATING"...which means....um, well, we really aren't sure!

Deep Voice:
Meanwhile, back at the Kitchen, Gladys has now extented her 'friendship' with Niall. They're an "official" couple.

My brain thinking:
(I am not sure Ian knows for sure, I had to act innocent last night at Scouts. Ian hangs around me and tells me things. Hmmm....guess Niall won't be sleeping over anymore.)

My voice:
Truevalueman and I are happy for DD, but this Gladys thing is just a little too much for us. Even my sister-in-law mentioned something about 'the girl' Niall is "with" at play practice...her girlfriend's son is one of the little kids acting in the play. NOT a good thing to her third-hand. We've told her to act more civilized; but I think we are wasting our breath!

(Crap!)

My family has issues!


Dumb-ass cat...couldn't get that thing off for hours. We finally took pity on her and took off the egg!
