So yesterday I woke up stressing about all the things I needed to do... And then I knocked most of them out yesterday.... I felt a lil more like a responsible adult..... Paid bills and did other stuff I needed to do.... Which included talking to Wilma about British lit.... After 2 days of investigating I've found I have an F (he massacred the paper I wrote and I haven't passed his pop quizzes - turns out I've underestimated those.... my mistake), theres no way I can pull it up to a C, I can drop the class and still live in the dorms for the rest of the semester since I only really need the 2 classes I have.... 6 hours.... with C's or better to graduate... I have B's in both currently.... I haven't officially dropped the class but the last day to do that is the 8th so I need to get on that.... Now how am I gonna break it to mom?
Probably exactly like that.... I don't need the class and only took it to live in the dorm, get upper level hours and hopefully bring my GPA up... If I kept it, I would get at best a D, bring down my GPA and not graduate.... If I drop if my GPA won't suffer, I'll still graduate and I'll continue to live in the dorms... Now being a somewhat sane and rational person, I realized dropping it is for the best and hopefully she will realize the same thing without freaking out the way she tends to do occasionally.... So I'll call her and talk to her about it tommorrow night and the Friday start the process of dropping it, Dr B won't be here Friday so I probably won't be able to finish dropping it till Monday.... But its better to give her the heads up than to do it and have her be MORE pissed than she might be.... So yeah I'm going out to Westside Elementary tommorrow for a couple of hours and then dinner and calling mom.... I'm so stressing about that but I'll do it and get it over with and take care of dropping it and things will get better..... Cuz I'll only have my 2 classes (both of which take up a lot of time studying, being in the schools, doing projects, its all very time consuming stuff...) and I'll ace them.... Hopefully pull off both A's, cuz other than that F this has been my best midterm EVER and I seriously believe I can get A's in both my classes... It might be difficult but even if I get a high B I'll be more than happy but I'll be freaking exstatic with A's... I don't know if Mom's deal will hold for just 2 classes instead of 3 but I will have gotten good grades and worked hard for them, and graduated.... I'm damn proud of me and she should be too.... Dammit.
I feel bad for springing this on her when she sent me a Halloween card with $20's in it.... I was totally surprised and happy to get that.... I should have kept it for an emergency but in classic me fashion, its gone the way of the doo-doo... Is that how its spelled? I don't know.... The birds.... kinda crazy looking that are extinct now.... ah well... I'm going to get a snack.... laters.
