Vortexia's Secret

here's what's up so far. i stayed up super late last night studying because i couldn't make myself concentrate any earlier. i was too happy and all caught up in feeling blessed and productive and all. but i buckled down, and i ended up studying fairly well at that point and thought i knew all i needed to know. figured i was good to go.

got to class. took my midterm. shit. ok, i just have to tell all the profs and teachers out there: if you're going to make the exam hard, then don't tell your students that it's embarrassingly easy. at least give it to them straight so they have a fighting chance. tell the truth when you say what will and won't be on there. and tell the truth when you say they will or will not need to memorize the mundane details. she said don't memorize, just know the basics. so i did. but she wanted moemorized details. i tried, but i don't know how well i succeeded. i reviewed everything, but i didn't pore over the stuff she said not to worry about. suckah, it was on there. biatch. but whatever. i think i can still manage an A with the other assignments in there.

i'm definitely very tired from the late night study session. but after i left, i was in a good mood. i'm getting really good gas mileage for some reason, and am debating if i need to go ahead and fill up now so i don't chance it on the drive to work tomorrow and going through the bad parts of town or if i squeeze out another day and hopefully save a little dough on this horrifically high gas prices. of course if it jumps again tomorrow afternoon, then i'm screwed either way, so who knows. it's a gamble. but today is such a nice day and the guage claims i have enough gas to get to work and back even though the mileage would say something to the contrary. as far as i know my guage is still accurate so i guess i'm going with that.

on my way home from class i got a couple items at the store. came home and actually read the details for my roadside assistance plan thingie. i thought the benefits were a little better, but i guess any money off something that i'll have to do is worth it even if i still have to pay something in the end. and it was a pretty cheap plan so i guess i should have expected it. so anyway, i came home and was productive again. put stuff in my car that needed to go, took some stuff to the dumpster, put my plants out for some sun (please don't die), etc.

i'm actually in a pretty good mood even though my body is revolting. i'm supposed to start any time now, and i could feel it as soon as i woke up. it just makes you feel yucky. it's like your body is disgusted with itself and is pouting, but worse. so anyway, i tried to prepare in case things got going during the exam. luckily it didn't, but i still feel gross. i am very thankful at least that i only have to go through this once every three months. thank goodness for the modern technologies of birth control. so yay for being happy in spite of my body's temper tantrum. and enjoying the extra long afternoon granted to me by that bitch of an exam. the good and the bad, they come in balance sometimes. i think i'm going to soothe my body and my mood with a warm cup of tea, a blanket, and a good book. yes, that sounds divine right now. hope monday is treating you guys well. hugs!
