Ooooh crap. My study habits are absolutely appalling this quarter. My brain is definitely already in summer mode, but I still have my Latin final tomorrow morning. I haven't exactly been studying yet today. Instead, I have watched some TV -- including Planet Earth, "Growing Up Seal" on Animal Planet, and Little House on the Prarie. I have also taken a trip to Vons with Mitzi to get some ice cream. And... that's basically it. I'm not gonna lie to you; I know I'll still be watching Studio 60 tonight even though I could very easily tape it and spend that hour studying. And I will definitely waste a lot of time making some kind of delicious dinner at some point. And if anybody comes at me with any kind of distraction, I bet you anything I'll take them up on it. But I haven't even really THOUGHT about that damn dead language for a week, and that means I've probably forgotten everything I ever knew. So I need to study at least a little bit. I have a 95% in that class right now (WTF?) and the final is only 30% of our grade, so I could still get 78.3% on the final and still have an A-. I wouldn't even really argue if I ended up with a B- (which I could get with a 45% on the final). I just don't really care anymore. But the biggest thing is that I don't want to disappoint my professor, who sincerely cares very much about all of her students and wants us all to get an A in her class. She is so magical and wonderful and I don't want to let her down. Hmmm... Maybe I should just stop wasting time and study a for little bit.

Someone just took an impromptu shot for funsies and then immediately remembered she has a Latin quiz tomorrow.

TIME TO MAAAAKE FLAAAAAAAASHCAARRRRRDZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

LOOOOOZT NIIIITEEE

When I get stressed out about school I recklessly spend money.

Last night I bought one album (the Shortbus soundtrack, highly recommended) and two music videos from iTunes. I also bought Danger 50,000 Volts a few days ago... hopefully it'll get here tomorrow (but wouldn't it be extra special to receive it today!?). And now, I just decided to waste another $5 a month to up my Netflix account to two-at-a-time.

Shaaame.

But yay!!!

(Don't even ask how my Latin final went. I think we all know the answer anyway, and I don't want to face it right now.)

So Dutsch passed out a slip of paper with our current Latin grades, and mine said I have an A. Let's assume that the worst possible percent that could be called an A is 90% (even though I think that would usually be an A-). The final is worth 30% of my total grade. If I make 100% into 100 points, then 70 points are out of the way and there are 30 left to go. If I have 90% of 70 points, then I have 63 points. And if I would be very upset with any grade less than a B-, I need 17 more points to get to 80 total. And 17 out of 30 is a 56.67% on the test.

Does that make sense? I don't remember how to do math anymore.

I am scared. But now I have to go to bed.

I need to be a better student.
