I did pretty well (~85) on my physics test last night despite not having all the formulas down. I hope I won't have to take the final, but I'm probably too close to getting a B in the class to get away with it. (apparently the selection process is pretty subjective by the professor)
Took my last cal test (bar the final) today. I'm kinda worried because it really seemed very easy, but I'm afraid it might be faking it(wtf there's a word I wanted to use there and I couldn't think what it was, suggestions? oh yeah deceptive!).
I really really really lack the ability to go back and check my work. If I do check it, I have to erase the entire problem, because I can't concentrate with previous work there making me look at it and making me think in the same brain patterns as I did before. Is anyone else like that?
I have my GNEG presentation tonight. One of my group members was worried, one said that I shouldn't worry, and then the other is terse as usual. I haven't studied, but I did print out 3 copies of our slides to give to the panel judging us. Stu's group had to massively rework theirs because they didn't demonstrate enough of a grasp of the electronics involved with it, so he was down in the computer lab last night while I was freaking out because I can't do trig problems. xD
We honors fellows had a little dinner last night before the physics test (I could've been studying for cal! or writing the correct formulas on my notecard!) I think I interacted more with my roommate yesterday getting ready for, attending, and discussing it afterwards than I have pretty much any given month of the last two semesters xD
But that she was happy to interact is good, because if I haven't made a very big positive impression on her, it is a positive impression none the less and I'm not the most awkward person she knows! Is that a win? I think that's a win.
Here are the finals as I am worried about them:
I'm not: American Government, French
Oh, god: Physics, Cal
and I think that sums up the semester fairly well!
Oh, one last thing!
There's a guy in my french class who is in this Hmong students organization and today they're having a little sidewalk rally to protest the genocide of hmong people in laos. most people don't know anything about any genocides except the holocaust, but they go on.
Here is a geocities link of dubious quality (I haven't read it thoroughly) to give an idea of what's going on

just be aware. It's obvious that we are not told everything that goes on except as it pertains to the US becoming greater, but that's no excuse for not finding out about those things going on. (hello darfur!)
