Let me just say I’m so on fire about my orca talk. It went great. As great as great could be. Presenting all of our talks was a very enlightening experience for me and hopefully the rest of our seminar. It was fascinating to participate in a sort of grown-up “show and tell”.
The sciences are a very vast, diverse field. This was made obvious by everyone’s presentations and diversified interests. It was like a small glimpse into someone’s life, especially with the more passionate presentations.
This is quite honestly the worst. I can’t even keep up with this simple science seminar. Why am I like this?! Also, I haven’t studied nearly as much as I thought I would for both biology and calculus. I regret everything, in short.
However, things could be worse and my grades could be a lot worse than they are. I’m happy to say that I will not be failing any classes this semester. Or at least as far as I know.
Keep ya posted! Also sorry that I only have like 9 posts.
Recently I’ve been spending my time mostly alone or talking to very few people who I keep near to me. What has this turned into? Me realizing that for the most part, I don’t like the people I live with. One of my closest friends lives on the 3rd floor and I’ll often spend time up there just because and now it has become much more routine. We practically spent the weekend together with people from the 3rd floor. Starting off with a fun late night in a chill, dim lit room, enjoying pizza, Disney movies, The Beatles, and the wonders of our natural world.
Then Saturday night we had gone out and had good, wholesome fun. I enjoy the close, family-like nature of the 3rd floor which I simply do not have on the 2nd floor. It’s truly a different world 3 floors up and I’m extremely grateful to have found my happy place in my residence hall.
So this is what happened when I went home for Thanksgiving. I ate Thanksgiving dinner as expected and that was great. I saw my cats. I saw my dogs. I saw my sister’s cat. I saw my sister’s dog. I saw my parents. Everything was great… until I started coughing. Yes, I developed a cold right after Thanksgiving. And yes it was the worst. However, I came back stronger than ever and am ready to live my best life.
I came back and hit this bio exam with every ounce of my effort… then found out that I failed. But it’s okay because I failed knowing that I did my best. And that’s all you can do to a certain extent. However, I must learn from this mistake because if it happens more than once then it is not a mistake, it is a habit.
