New year, new semester
Jan. 19th, 2012 06:10 pmSchool is back in session. I had a lethargic semester or so (by my standards, which are what I would call Grangeresque--3.8 is not where my GPA should be), and in classic overcompensation mode I leapt back into business with a vengeance this time around this week. I've made a lot of decisions that force me to focus solely on schoolwork four days a week, which includes the elimination during those days of certain distractions of sundry sorts.
This semester is going to be enriching and amusing. =D Three of the four professors are ones I've had before, and they're my top three favorite prof at the college to boot!
( Excellent professors, metaphysics and theology invade the kitchen, LeGuin, and Shakespeare: A manic rant about my classes. )

Happy New Year, internet!
None of my friends were doing anything of note, so since fate had decreed a quiet and reflective evening, I rewatched American Beauty, a film I've not seen in over 11 years, and found it better than ever. I also attempted some writing and began a project I'd been putting off. And started to take the rough storyboards for my comic and attempt finished products.
This morning all last semester's grades are finally posted online. For a certain class, it was actually a pleasant surprise that I received a B. That's never been the case. The one other time I received a B I was rather upset. Guess it's all a matter of perspective.
Meanwhile, to compensate, the online score distribution graph says I was the only one in my History class to get a perfect score on the final essay. That's what I like to see on the first day of the new year. *picture my icon preening*
