Today is not a good day...

Just found out that two of the courses (the two that I actually liked) I wanted to take are full. Rechecked the schedule, and these are the possible other classes that I can take:

Computer Science 111, meets up on Tuesday and Friday from 11:10-12:20 with a lab class on Wednesday from 2:15 to 4:05.

Calculus 115, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 11:10 to 12:15

History 158 (a study of free speech and rebellion in the past), on Tuesday and Thursday, 1:30-2:40

Sociology 138 (a study of supposed deviance and normality), on Tuesday and Friday, 8:30- 9:40

French Intermediate Spoken, Tuesday and Friday, from 9:50-11:00.

And of course, whatever French class I place into. I only need to take 4 courses per semester and I'm reluctant to take French, Calc and Comp. Sci together since I dislike all three of them. That would mean that I'd hate 75% of the time that I spend in class and studying. Therefore, I'm going to try to take only Calc and French, depending on the level that I'm placed into for French, and my other two classes should be History and Sociology, which will mean that I'll have to wake up early in the mornings for Soc 138 and stay awake since if I place where I want to, I'll have French right afterwards. Actually, my first hope would be to place so well in French that I don't have to take any classes at all, but that's kind of unlikely.

Oh, and I have to take the Maths Exam today. I can't take the French Placement Exam, but someone told me that I can take that exam anytime during the year. Which would be good since I was actually shaking at the thought of having to waste two years of my life studying a language that I speak very well indeed.

Fuck. I've been on my own for one day (my mother only flew back yesterday) and I already managed to mess my life up. I can't believe that I'm this stupid - how did I manage to get into one of the top five university's in American when I can be this fucking stupid?!

First, you are not stupid. As you said, you got into one of the top university's that alone says that you're not stupid >.>

Nor do I see you as being stupid.

No one's perfect, and your tired and possibly overwhelmed? Or at least trying to get a lot done at once. Something. *hugs*

When you're done with the Math Exam (or when you can) find out officially about the French one; I do hope that you can take a retest of it. I know you mentioned lang. required and such, but if you cannot take the exams - can you just take them next year? It's probably not what you want to do (if you can), but (as you said) it'd be better than taking a class that you already know... Bleh, I just woke up so forgive me if my words aren't making sense -.- My point is in here somewhere - including that you're not stupid >.>

>.< And definetely sorry to hear that, so far, things are not working out for you today... *hugs again* I just hope it can only get better...

Meh. Making excuses doesn't change the fact that I managed to miss a very important exam because I overslept. Even though I share a room with three other people. You'd have thought that at least one of them would have woken me up...

I can hopefully retake the French test, since the thing is, without taking it, I get automatically placed in the lowest level meaning that they'll assume I know nothing at all. I wanted to take it this year before I forget all my French... And it's okay, I'm surprised that you're awake this early at all. *hugs*

It did. The Maths exam went well. ^_^

[identity profile] xinda.livejournal.com 2004-09-01 02:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Miss it? Yes, but you're not stupid b/c of it. >.< Yes, well that just goes to show more and more that your roomates aren't very... *cough* Never mind... I'm just not liking them so far >.>

Oh yes, of course, forgetting it wouldn't be good -.-;; Hmm. Well, I do hope you can take the French test so that you don't get placed in the lowest level. I know (on a High school level) what it's like to be placed in a class that you already know stuff about (for me they called me a liar, basically, until more than half-way through the semester they found out I was right -.-; )LoL awake this early *smirks* THat sounds odd -- for me early was 1pm or earlier -- now it's this *rollseyes* I'm pathetic, sometimes.

Only awake b/c my sister came in yelling about my dad being home ~.~ Though, he still won't like that I'm in my room -.-;;

It did. The Maths exam went well. ^_^

GOOD! Okay. One good thing *smiles for that* >.> Y'know, I donno if your mom posted it or not, but I'm tempted to just ask for your current addy just so that I can mail something out now - or not something b/c I'm broke, but a letter ^^;; *headdesk* I shouldn't be talking, should I? x.X

Ditto. *sighs* I told them that I wanted to be awake early for the exams and they still didn't wake me up. *cries*

LoL awake this early *smirks* THat sounds odd -- for me early was 1pm or earlier -- now it's this *rollseyes* I'm pathetic, sometimes.

Change it back :P Then I'd be able to RP more with you. Or actually, even this early would work with the current schedule I have planned - my evenings and afternoons are always free, it's just mornings and lunchtimes that I seem to be tied up.

lol, I hope she did! Maybe it's taking longer because it's heavier or something... I'll ask her if she calls today. And as soon as I figure out my addy, I'll post it on lj, and you don't need to get me anything! Really, I love getting letters, that alone would be enough.

~.~ I have more than enough consideration in me to pass some over to them, if you'd like :P But seriously, gah, whatever happened to people -.-; gah. Most people suck, so no big surprise -.-; But that's still very unfair of them.

LoL! Only problem would be is that if I get on aim during the afternoon- then that'll lead back to family saying it's no better then me sleeping all day ~.~ Unless... if I can find a schedule and stick to it - I stay on aim for 2 hours or so (give or take, depending on the time I wake up) and then leave my room prior to this time so that it can work out for everyone... *thinks* Though, I need to prolly leave my room within the half hour or so x.X So if I can get to sleep to where I wake up any time after 12pm... I can stay online for a few hours, then leave my room and everyone'll be happy. Or anytime prior to 2pm rather... I s'pose *blinks* Too "early" for me to be thinking xD ... oi, I donno, I'll hafta figure something out ~.~ Or do it on certain days of the week, but not every day - so I can still chat with people who are up at other times... I donno x.X I'll figure something out when everyone is settled into school and know the schedule they have - including you ^^;

Not a clue ~.~ ^^; It could just be b/c it's me :P LoL! Yes, well once I get money/income (yeah, I'm like 700.00 in debt with dad again ~.~ This from being out of work and paying for a car that I can't drive xD and the net 9.9 ) then I like to buy people things *shrugs* All my current money (like... 3.00 left maybe? xD Plus lots of change...) goes to my cat and taking care of her food and litter ~.~ But back to the point... which was - oh yes! I like buying things for people when I can xD And I love writing letters- though my handwriting can be less than readable...

Fair enough. I know that I'll be able to RP all weekend long anyway, minus a few hours for sleeping and homework.

Ouch. *hugs sympathetically* I hate owing people, must be part of my Asian background. Still, you really don't need to buy me stuff. My parents set up a bank account for me so that I can get money to buy foods and essentials like that *still needs to stock her fridge*

...I want a cat. *sulks* They're forbidden in the dorms though, so too bad I guess. And I don't mind, mine is probably worse when I'm not using a ballpoint and being supercareful like I was with the postcard. I tend to write letters when I'm sitting still or waiting in line, since otherwise I get distracted by pretty much everything around. ^^;

Very true. And I'ma complete homebody, so I don't go anywhere *shrugs*

I hate owing people with a passion - save for my mom xD LoL we both do things and it's cool, but with my dad? I hate it even further ~.~ Despise it - despise it further that the money I'm in debt for isn't even for something I get to use ~.~ well yeah... for essentials and things ;P But if I can find anything that cha might like or something, then I can buy it so nya :P Though, who knows when I'll get money xD *hugs back*

awwwwww. Can you have any pet? Fish... bird? ^^; Though a bird is noisy and roomies prolly won't like it... ^^; I write *quickly* so... it's sloppy. I try to write slowly, but my thoughts are too quick to do that xD I'm weird like that ~.~ Ooooh ^^; Well I write letters when I can't get on the net, usually ^^;;

lol, I know what you mean. Plus, I write while in moving objects like trains so my handwriting gets seriously scrawling...

I'm starving, off to dinner now then a talk on the "Honor Code". Hopefully I'll get to talk to you when I get back. ^_^

I try to do that - I fail x.X Though it looks like I'm in a moving object so x.X

The only reason I'm commenting to this one now is b/c in the last one I didn't say I was leaving xD Mom just let me know dinner is ready so woo-hoo.
*blinks* Fun fun ^^ Enjoy your dinner xD

*will comment later and, possibly get on around the same time or earlier again tonight... errr...*

LOL! Forget us having minds that run around similar tracks, so do our lives (ignore the fact that since we live in the same timezone, our meals ought to come around the same times anyway).

*will comment later and, possibly get on around the same time or earlier again tonight... errr...*

Whee. That would be fun. *is waiting for people to come online*

LoL Go figure, ne? O.O; That was ironic though ^^;; Though, if you didn't have classes (never mind RPing) would you stay up late anywho? ^^

Only to RP with you and people. Otherwise, I'd get nine hours of sleep since that's how much I need to be happy.

Oh, I see I see. Hmmm. You definetely should get that much sleep then.

Meh. I'll settle for 8, but really, before I got into RPing, I'd go to bed at aaround 10, fall asleep by 11 0r 12 and then wake up by 9, happy and refreshed and bouncy. ^_^

*blinks* Wow ^^ Hmmm. Before I knew about RPing, I'd still stay up late but it was only about... 4 or even 5am or so if no one was online talking to me? Then I'd wake up around noon or 1pm ... I think I'm almost always tired - but I felt *better* I s'pose x.x Now I can't find a schedule (yet) and I don't think my body's happy about that ^^;;;
But yeah, going to bed at 10? LoL To me, that's "too early" ^_^;

[identity profile] fickle-goddess.livejournal.com 2004-09-02 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
lol, poor you. *pats* My body isn't happy either with my lack of schedule or technically, it's unhappy about having to run around campus and make decisions when terminally low on energy. I can't wait to get everything sorted out...

lol. I need 9 hours of sleep in bed because I don't sleep well. I wake up lots during the night unless I'm exhausted like these days...

[identity profile] xinda.livejournal.com 2004-09-03 05:25 am (UTC)(link)
*nods* I do hope it get's sorted out soon. It's just like anytime starting school or a new job - your body hates you for a little while - just while you adjust to everything and find the thing that works best.

Oh? Yeah. I see why you need so many hours *nods* My sleeping pattern is... changing. One night I wake up all the time, the next I sleep like a log... x.x *hopes you slept well*
