Exams!

Yet again exams are upon me. This time it really counts because they are my finals, and if I want to go into chemistry next year I should probably do really well on my exam, which is tomorrow. I'm very nervous! I know what you're thinking, why am I writing this if I could be studying?" I am merely taking a short break. I never really did figure out the thermodynamics questions, but there are only 3 questions from the stuff we learned before January so I think I'll be O.K. I'm mostly concentrating on kinetics and electrochemistry because they are going to be focused on mainly.
On a happier note, my birthday is coming up soon! I'm very excited! I have been reminding Mike it's coming everyday since mid March. (my birthday is April 27th). I honestly don't know how he puts up with me ;).
Well that's all I have time for, back to studying....yuck I just want this exam to be over!

Two Weeks

First off, let me apologize for not posting a comic last weekend, I was busy with a submission for the Dorito's Guru competition, and also very distracted because I found out about the Pandora and was reading about it. I want one, by the way.

It also seems I will not be uploading any comics any time soon either. Well, maybe if I can hook the scanner up on my dad's desk and install it on this computer. You see, I have been having some trouble with the screen on my laptop. It's been getting progressively more... splotchy? It's hard to describe. So I realized that Monday was probably one of my last chances to bring it in before the warranty expired, and decided to do so. It needs to be shipped off to HP for repairs. The guy at Best Buy said 2 weeks, maybe more. They're going to call when it's back.

That reminds me. Amy tried to call me today, and it seems our phone line is now dead. Hopefully it will me back in the morning.

I'd have to say the worst part about not having my laptop is that I can only use this computer until 11:00pm. With my laptop I usually just get started into things at 11, and I usually talk with Amy until 1:00am. No more doing that though for a couple weeks. I guess I should find me a good book. There's a copy of IT by Steven King on my desk, and I plan to read it this/next week. Although on the weekend Amy will be here and that's always great.

My paragraphs have become a disjointed mess. I should stop writing for tonight.

forgot the little italic text and had to edit it in :P and then fix its spelling

Reading Week

Well my reading week is drawing to a close and now it's back to school for 4 midterms over 2 weeks. Not fun. I should have studied more this week, but honestly I don't regret not studying. Well currently I don't, it may be a different story on friday and saturday. I spent the majority of the week with Mike and a bit with my friends. Unfortunately my friends at home are all still in high school so I couldn't see them as much as I would have liked. Mike and I did go visit our old high school for a day, it was fun! We watched movies, hung out, went out for dinner and played lots of mario kart. I went shopping with my mom several times and even got a few possible dresses to wear to my sisters wedding. I'm the only brides maid/maid of honour, so I get to pick the style, she still picks the colour. All in all it was a great week and was far too short.
It's scary, soon I'll be done my first year of university. I really only have about 6 weeks of classes left. It sounds like both and long and short time. We have to tell the university before the end of march what program we plan to enroll in next year before the end of march. I sat down with my mother today and figured out that I am going to major in chemistry and minor in biology. I was thinking originally minor in gentic be decided just general biology would give me more flexibility.
Well thats everything that's new so far for me. Make sure to check out Mike's new comic!
