Chop chop chop through the ice!

It's Sunday. I got back from Livonia around 11:30... just enough time to take a shower and meet my German group. The German thing was actually fun and we got a lot done. But I felt like I was being too controlling. Once someone thought of a main idea I was able to come up with a lot of stuff and content get some ideas that enriched the original a little, and I just felt like I was always talking and always suggesting something and always correcting something she typed. It was like there was constantly a huge influx of inspiration. I felt like I was taking too much control in the writing of the script, but at the same time I had all of these possibly good ideas and suggestions. I tried not to do it, and maybe it was only bad from my perspective and not theirs.

The south quad cru women's retreat thing was fun. We watched Mean Girls, which I hadn't seen before. They started watching Troy, which I wanted to see, around 2:30 a.m., but I gave up around 3a.m. and went to bed. I think that if I would've watched it before I read the Iliad, I would like it more. The stupid ninja game was great. I don't know... I really don't have much to say about it. The house smelled like my aunt Rose's house.

I've mastered the "this person is talking to me but I'm not actually listening" method. A guy campaigning for student government knocked on my door and he started talking, and I caught myself automatically going into "politely ignore" mode.

Oh, wow. I'm so overwhelmed. Can you guess why? Well, I was about to start doing my calc homework and I thought, "why not check my email one last time before I start?" So I did, and then I thought, "why not see if my physics exam grade is posted yet, even though it's not going to be because I've been checking obsessively since Friday..." So I did.........and it was. Know what I got? Well, at first I was confused because instead of out of 20 points like last time, it was out of 40 points and I couldn't figure out what was going on. It turns out that each question was worth 2 points and there were some "secondary answers", where if you chose them, you'd get 1 point. What'd I get, you ask? I got 31/40, which is totally not bad... I got 4 wrong and 1 "secondary answer". It's only a little worse than last time, but it felt like it was going to be so much worse than this. When I saw my score, I didn't know whether to jump up and down for joy or cry in relief, and I almost did both.

My calc is going well but there's a couple that aren't coming out right. I can do them but they're just not working. I might end up needing some assistance finding the problem, because I can not see what is wrong. Yes, I am a dork and I am blogging about my calc homework.
