I’ve been very bored with no school, thus the title of this post. Tomorrow I’m going home for around a week then coming back. During that off time I need to find a job because I have a hell of a lot better chance of getting into physics down here then up there, so I need money for the summer. And…basketball goes on. We lost a couple we should have won. The next three should be easy wins. |
| happy mood! |

This week has been kind of meh. One a good note I only had biostats once this week because the professor “had an incident” with her horse. But on a lower note I didn’t have my micro lab this week. Yes, I have to get up at 6AM in order to get to my 8AM lab which lasts until nearly noon at the longest, but it’s the one class that I really enjoy what I’m doing. What can I say, I’m a micro nut. Now back to Japanese homework. Tags: japan, japanese, School |
| And I’m looking for a job on top of it all |

So in case you hadn’t noticed, this semester has been a rather busy one for me. It’s my senior year, although after looking at everything it looks like I’m going to be staying another full year probably. And for one class, biochem. Why? Because before they had a one semester biochem class for non-majors who needed it. Well, apparently the last time they had it was last spring, so now in order to fill my requirements I don’t get to take a 3 unit biochem course, but two semesters of biochem, each 4 units each. Lucky me. I guess that’s what I get for putting it off. So I’m going to have to most likely come back next year just for that class. But on the plus side if I do come back I can take Japanese 415 in the fall. Hopefully I can, taking a semester break from a foreign language might as well be taking a three year break from speaking it. But also another good thing, if I do have to stay, and if I get the job I’m trying for right now, then I’ll have tons of time to work. And I hope I do get the job. I applied once before but apparently there wasn’t anyone qualified enough or something so the job was posted again. I am qualified for it, and I am determined to get it, so I’m applying again. It’s the perfect job for me and a great chance for me to keep practicing and learning new lab skills. The pay isn’t too bad either, it’s nearly $11/hr, which may not seem like a lot to some people reading this, I don’t know, but minimum wage in Arizona is only $7.35, which I’ve been told is very low compared to other states. Real quick about classes. I hate my biostats with a passion, and I usually leave early in order to make it on time to my next class because there’s no point in being in class except for possible extra credit. The professor can’t lecture worth shit, it seems like she’s always just babbling. She just pisses me off. My vet sci lab isn’t too bad, it’s actually pretty easy, just takes a bit of work and the main professor who lectures is a bit boring. Japanese is fine, I have the same professor (I don’t know if that’s even what I should call him, he’s a grad student) as I did for some of 101 and 201, which helps because I don’t have to get used to how he speaks. I’m actually doing pretty well in there right now. And my micro lab is enjoyable, although not so much the Monday pre-lab lectures. The professor pretty much just goes over what we’ll be doing in lab that week in fifty minutes, and then the next day the lab TA goes over the same information in about 20 minutes, so I’m not sure why I go but I go. My lab TA is really nice though. And quick anime! Thus far nothing good this season except Shana. Boku wa Tomodachi isn’t too bad I guess, but nothing else I’m watching stands out. Although from last season Penguindrum is starting to intrigue me. It’s kind of like with Steins;Gate (end AMAZING), where I had no clue what the hell was initially going on, but when it started it started. And that’s all I have to say for now! Or have time to say! Oh and I’ll put a more relevant icon when photobucket decides it wants to stop being a bitch. Tags: Anime, life, School |

It’s been forever since I’ve blogged. That has been due to a few reasons. First and the largest, summer classes. Damn physics. This is also most of the reason I’m so pissed off. I busted my ass in that class. I never missed a day, I made sure to take detailed notes, I read the book and did practice problems (even if they took me like two hours a piece), and I did all the homework. Yet I ended up getting a D in the class. I needed a C. I’ve been at this college thing for some time now. I’m going to be a senior. I’ve been taking full loads during the regular school year, and every summer picking up two classes at community college. Oh, I forgot to point that out. Along with having to take stupid physics, it filled up at the community college near me, so I had to take two damn buses, a half hour ride each way, to a community college that was far away from where I live. And the instructor sucked. I went to him a couple times to try and get helped, it was pointless. He didn’t explain any problems worth shit, just did them, didn’t explain the method. Plus whenever he taught he would skip around with problems and half the time didn’t even get the right answer when he was doing a problem on the board. Then when the quizzes and exams came the problems would be ridiculously long and complicated, and often they weren’t even like the problems in the book. The damn quizzes before labs, which were only a couple questions, ended up taking like a half hour to complete. Anyway, my point of all of this was that I now don’t get to graduate on time, after all the work I’ve been putting into school. It seriously pisses me off.

Now what’s in store? Packing up all my crap, moving out of the apartment Saturday. Hopefully getting a job over the summer because I’m in desperate need of money, and of course wasting my entire June and most of July taking physics at community college. What ever happened to summer vacation? I haven’t had one since I entered college, I’m always taking classes. Tags: grades, School |

Now to as the title says. This is going to be very short, because I have less than a week of class left for the year and have a shitload of stuff to do. First, I’d like to say a bit about the finally aired last two episodes of Madoka. It took forever, and honestly the ending was a bit confusing (not so much the ending ending as much as the Madoka stuff), but it received a 10 from me, and has bumped Clannad down to my 3rd favorite anime. Also the HOTD OVA, which I’ve been looking so forward to because there isn’t going to be a second season anytime soon with the mangaka only bringing out a chapter every two months with barely any development in it, didn’t impress. I rated it rather low. Now onto realizations! (more…) Tags: Anime, basketball, college, life, music, random |

PS, as for the icon, I thought their play this year was pretty gangster, thus the icon. That is all. |
