The best week

This has been the best week and a bit of the semester. So much fun stuff… prom, phone calls to odd places, making new friends, growing closer to old ones.

Today was my 3rd psychology test. I think I’ve finally got the rhythm of how to work them.

  • Test 1: Take careful notes. Study ~ 3 hours. Take test in 45 minutes. 96%
  • Test 2: Take no notes, but listen in class. Study ~ 1 hour. Take test in 40 minutes. 95%
  • Test 3: Take some notes but play games or do physics mostly. Study < 1 hour. Take test in 17 minutes. 98%

Probably my easiest class since 6th grade :P

Working backwards, I’ve been really productive these last few days. This week is fairly intense (three tests, an evil physics lab, an essay, and a CS project) but I already have one test and the essay, lab, and project done. Sam is good for my work ethic :P not to mention being good for my hug-deprivedness.

I got KUbuntu added to my Ubuntu install on my laptop. If I can just get a FEW more kinks ironed out, it’ll be time to blow Windows up on the lappy and go full-time to Linux. Wine is about ready to do the few remaining Windows tasks I need. KDE is gorgeously lickable; Gnome is clean but just so ooglay. And KDE is more functional-feeling for me; more features. A combination of things that makes me like KDE far better than Gnome (not that Gnome doesn’t have it niceties!)

Last week, Rory called me from the UK for three minutes. It was hilariously funny to hear him call me “a little muppet” in his thick British accent. Put me in a happy mood the rest of the day. His calling me inspired me to call Loth, and I talked to her for almost half an hour and even got told I was allowed to call back (which I did a few days later ;) ) That girl is so sweet.

The Monday after prom (week from yesterday), my CS class was canceled. So I dragged myself out of bed for 8:30 physics, but then was soooo tempted to skip French (my only other class) and go back to bed, since CS class wasn’t going to be held. I ended up doing it and feeling guilty. When I got there Wednesday, I asked one of my friends what I had missed. Her response? “Oh, we didn’t have class on Monday.” How lucky am I? :)
