So this post was originally going to be about how I felt pretty good about my Quant Management test yesterday when I left, but that kind of got overshadowed when I checked the scores for my two tests last week. One low B, one low C. Definitely not my best work, and not the way I was hoping to start off this semester’s tests. What makes it a little more annoying is that this semester I’ve probably been making the biggest effort of my college career to actually be ready for class and tests. I’ve actually been reading (most) everything required for class and I’ve studied more this semester than most all of last semester. Apparently it’s not enough. (Suck)

Now I know some people reading this would be thinking, “so he got a B and a C on two tests; so what? That’s average and above average, what’s wrong with that?” Well, nothing. Except that I know I can do better. I’ve been doing better all my life and I didn’t suddenly become average. I’m not trying to sound egotistical or arrogant, but the fact is I know that I’m capable of A’s, and so when I don’t get them I feel like I’ve let myself down. Now, of course, life will go on. I won’t beat myself up over it, but it’s still annoying. And you can bet that I’ll study harder next time. The only thing that sucks about that is that I already feel like I don’t have time to do the things I want to do outside of class…lets take away a little more time. Boo. Hiss.

I’ve got one more test before Fall Break, so I guess that’s my chance to redeem myself. Speaking of break, I’m really looking forward to it. Four whole days with nothing school related, and I’m even leaving the state. I’m going to meet Amber’s parents for the first time, so I’m a little nervous but pretty excited at the same time. I hope I can live up to expectations.

Well, I’ve wasted enough time here. Back to work.
