Frustration

STAT 2000

I failed my statistics exam. I haven't gotten the full mark back, but I did correct my multiple choice questions this morning. I don't want to share my embarassing failure of a mark with everyone on the Internet, so I'll just tell you that it was very, very bad.

So, the mark I got on that part of the exam brought my mark in the class up (down) to 50 per cent. If I can get 10/15 on the long answer, I will pass with a C in the class. I left 3 of the 5 questions blank, so I doubt this will happen.

...which means that I get to take the amazing Stats 2000 again next year. Woo-hoo!

It bothers me because I was doing so well. I had passed Stats 1000 last term with a B+, I was getting A's on most of my assignments for Stats 2000, I got a 75% on the midterm. Then I go and fail the exam. It bothers me.

Summer employment

I'm still trying to figure out a summer job. I am playing phone tag with a company right now that does advertising and graphic design. I would love to work there, or with any graphic design company. See what it's like. Make sure I like it before I go to school for another four year.

It's looking sort of promising, sort of not, but I will know if I have a job by Friday. If not, I'll probably end up giving Wal-mart a call and try to see if they have a job for me this summer. I enjoyed working there, but I'm sort of disappointed that I won't get my design job.

I'm thinking about going to get my Smart Serve (is that what it's called still?) at the college this summer. Do they offer that in the summer? They must. Then I can like, waitress at the Keg or something. Make tips.

FREN 1200

I have a French exam on the 24th. I wasn't scared for it before, but I'm kind of nervous now after my statistics exam. Because when I went into that exam I wasn't nervous at all; I thought I knew everything. So I'm worried I will study my butt off for French and think I know everything and fail that one too.

I know this won't happen, actually. But I'm still a bit worried at the back of my mind. Hopefully, it doesn't turn out that way. I have an A in the class right now and I'd hate to lose that. I need a 78 on the exam, I think, to keep it.

Wish me luck.
