So tired

I have been tired all day I slept poorly and was up at 7 to get ready for my lab exam, and I was so out of it that I forgot my pencil case and my calculator, luckily I was able to borrow some pens and a calculator and the exam went soso, and i cant be upset because I really didnt put in a study effort After I finished writing I went to go hand in my last pop and com assignment which was a nice feeling, once back in res I ate and began to organize the disaster that was our livingroom, not only did we get food, we also got a table, microwave, fan, humidifier etc etc so we had stuff everywhere but I was able to tidy up a bit before the tired hit me Liz and Jeremy spent the afternoon with us until they had to go catch their bus/flight, it was nice, they napped, I laid about and did nothing, I'm basically a blob :( I made chicken burgers for dinner and grilled them on my new george foreman grill from Liz and Jeremy, haha and they were delicious and cooked fast Now I'm just tired but not as sleep as I was before, I wish I had been more productive, but I do have time to get things done this weekend, I keep thinking it's saturday, but I have two full weekend days left so I should be fine, I'll go to bed soon and hopefully sleep better than I did last night Night!

Its late

It's late, I need to sleep as I have a quiz tomorrow morning

Today was the last evening with Liz and Jeremy

More tomorrow

Night!
Okay time to elaborate on this entry and then write a new entry I had my last PLant Ecology class and writing the professor evaluation felt like christmas, I could finally express my feelings about Juan Carlos and his lack of teaching abilities and I managed to keep myself composed and it didnt turn into and angry childish rant, I was proud Our final paper was always handed in, but to be honest the work load was really not even, which is part of the reason why I don't like group papers, Elaine did the most work, I fell somewhere in the middle and there was of course the member who did little, but he was aware that he did not do much. After classes, I did not do very much, I tried to study for my wildlife ecology quiz, but it was not going well and then eventually Katie, Kris and I went down to see Liz Jeremy and Katniss, we all hung out and ended up going out for all you can eat sushi and it was so delicious and fun to share with everyone, the chef even gave us a special thing not available on the weekday dinner menu, I think it was Tuna Takanaki or something along those lines, I was so full especially since I had already had dinner, I think I'm getting fat :( After binging on sushi we went back to Liz and Jeremy's and played a game of settler of catan cities and knights and it was a long game and I was tired and had my wildlife eco lab exam at 8 am and had done minimal studying We got to take all of Liz and Jeremy's frozen food since they were leaving and by the time we got back to res and unloaded all the frozen things it was after midnight, and sleep was something that was not coming to me And to keep the tradition Night!

17 days....

I am making it through, even though this morning I awoke and thought my health was relapsing. I was not feeling well this morning, I didnt even eat breakfast :( I went to my pop and com tutorial is hopes that it would help me with the assignment and it didnt help me with the parts of the questions I didnt understand, but I was reassured of how I did other questions which I guess is good. Wildlife ecology was good, we now only have one lecture and the lab test and the final, in 8 days everything about that class will be done and over, crazy. After wildlife I needed to eat something so I went to the corner store and bought hummus and pita, which was a bad idea, it was horrible, it made me feel worse than I was already feeling :( I didnt pay any attention in plant eco, I was there to do the participation things and that was it, the information was useless that we were learning , I had sent Juan Carlos a few emails with questions about the final paper and he asked me to come speak with him after class, but I told him that I was unavailable because I wanted him to reply in text so we have something to refer back to if he tries to claim we did things wrong when we do them the way we are told to do so, and he did reply, though some of the answers are still very unclear, but I guess it is better than nothing After plant eco, I went to the housing office to get a petty cash form from Jenn, and while I was there I picked up some other things and killed time, I didnt want to get to work yet After killing time I went to my room and began being productive, I had lunch, worked on my pop and com assignment and I think I finished it, or at least I have answers to all the questions. I also worked a bit on the plant Eco paper and sent it out to everyone along with Juan Carlos' answers to my questions, then I had to lye down for a bit, my head and neck were starting to bother me, I wish I didnt store stress in my neck, it would make things easier I rested for a bit and ate ice cream, and then eventually I went back to being productive and read over my population model, decided I was finished with it so I printed it off and I will hand it in tomorrow, and I can also hand in my Canada Journal Tomorrow, another thing I can check off, then I only have the plant Eco paper and my wildlife eco lab quiz and my pop and com assignment but that will all be over by friday at 1pm and then the studying can begin, and I should probably do some work in the lab and I have to work out my write up for the research award I got and I'm hoping that wont take long I also still need to do my final RA event of the semester and I think I will do it December 9th, and it will an are you smarter than a 5th grader stress buster with snacks. Tonight was a goodbye to Liz thing at the moose, it was nice, it was Katie, Kris, Liz, Jeremy, Adam and I for the most part, Adam came a bit later but stayed till we left and Lindsey was there for a bit, as was Kallie, and the Fabris and Ryan Peel stopped in to say hi. It was nice, I had moose fries and a long island ice tea that was delicious and I was able to pay Adam back for taking me to get my stuff from Nicole's by buying him dinner, and it ended up working out well because I think the waitress forgot to charge him for his beer, so it was pretty cheap, :) After the moose Katie, Liz, Kris, Jeremy and I went back to our room and we listened to the pitch perfect sound track, and Kris really enjoys singing party in the USA, and as I am writing this he may have bust out singing in the kitchen, there may have been dance moves and I may have almost cried due to laughter. It was funny Liz and Jeremy left and Kris and Katie got all couplely, Kris hit his eye with a pillow and Katie had to kiss it better, I almost had to throw up, and I told them so when Kris was leaving and Katie said he was forgetting something....her.... oh yea that happened. Anyways I should be off to bed and I hope I dont wake up feeling like I did this morning, that would kind of suck. 17 sleeps till home Night!

One week of classes left

This morning I met with Chris to talk about my population model and I don't know of it reassured me in anyway, but there isnt much I can do now

My geo of Canada class felt never ending
And it was followed by my last social geography class and I handed in the final paper, I was done with it and I needed it out of my hands

Pop and com was okay, rather typical, only 2 more pop and com classes left, scary thought

After class i went to res, picked up the on call phone and then I made lunch and started working on my pop and com assignment, but I didn't quite finish, I'm hoping after the tutorial tomorrow I will be able to finish.

I also worked on my population model and then moved on to plant Eco, yuck, Hayden sent me the methods and then Elaine sent the discussion and I was waiting for Kurt, he sent his stuff late, I'm about to take a look at it now and see if it's worth incorporating yet.

The RA meeting was short, only 30 minutes and now I have wait till 11 to do rounds and then I can go to bed, yay bed

It better be quiet

Night!

2 major assignments done!

Today was a decently productive day, I got up at about 930 after an okay nights sleep and started working on homework, finishing up my social geography paper, I had breakfast and tea and continued to work,

I tried to work on my population model, but I was jut not feeling the pop and com today, I tried the assignment too and did not get far, that will be a task for tomorrow :(

I also tried to work on my plant Eco paper, taking notes as such from papers but I was not as productive as I should have been

At 5 ish Katie as is started cooking for the potluck we were having at 6, and about 6 residents came out and they brought food and it was a nice hang out sesh with fellow first floorers

The kris, Liz and Jeremy came over and we played settlers and I won :) yay me!

I will arrange my stuff for my classes and I also have a meeting at 840 with my pop and com prof to talk about my population model and I may ask some questions about the assignment as well.

Should probably be off to bed soon.

Oh on another note, AJ was supposed to meet up with me today so he could give me back my movie, but he said he would text me when he was available and no surprise he never texted, I'm worried I will not get my movie back :( and at this point that's really all I want

Night!

Not as productive as I could have been

This morning I let myself sleep in, I need the rest, still trying to get healthy.

Once awake I worked on my population model and the was lazy and lounge about, around noon I took a shower and then Adam sent me a text saying that we could go get my stuff from Nicole's

It was such a relief to get it back, it's one less thing I have to worry about now, once back it was my time to drive the leaf for the last time


I bought groceries, Hopefully enough groceries to last me till I go home, I may need to get milk, but that should be it.

After groceries it was homework time, worked on my gay space paper and finished a rough draft, I also made minestrone soup and some breschetta

Once done the rough draft of my paper I decided to do laundry and tidy up a bit,

Soon I'll be off to bed, I need more rest, still trying to get healthy


Night!
