Lately I have been feeling as if I have not been putting forth my best effort. Instead of studying, I watch movies or get on the Internet.

My grades have been reflecting this.

I don’t want to let my mother’s expectations of me down, so this week I have a few goals:

1. Finish all of my homework.
2. Study really hard for all of my tests.
3. Work really hard on my Program 2 due on Friday

My most recent math test I got a D on it, and I was really fustrated at myself. I thought that I would do good on that test, not having done very much of my homework and I hardly studied.

Why would I expect something so good and not even try?

Maybe because in the past I have always been good at Math, getting good grades in math without even taking two glances at my homework.

I think I need to change that right now. I think it’s partly because I’m slightly lazy, but the other part is because I thought I could do good without studying and I can’t get a good grade.

I think I know that now.

This past week has NOT been a good one for tests, especially Math. In Psychology I got a C+ on the first test, but I studied really good. Apparently I didn’t study enough, so I’ll keep that in mind for next time.

My Program 2 for ITK 168 is due this Friday, as well as a test in Biology on Thursday in lab - which I need to study for as well!

Okay, so that is my week outlined for everyone!

Speaking of this weekend, Vince came over and we had a REALLY good time. My mother was really nice (not that she isn’t like that ALL of the time, because she is he he) and made Spaghetti and we also went shopping. It was very nice and Vince really enjoyed himself, which he told me when I took him back up to ISU that night.

I titled this entry because in case I ever get off track again, I can just look up at this entry and remember to keep my goals in sight.

Man today is great. I love everything about this day so far.

I don’t know whether it was the amount of sleep I got last night, or just the day, it is great!

Last night I went to bed at about 11PM for the first time in WEEKS…not having to worry about homework, and the stress levels in my mind were at their minimal stages.

I slept like a baby. ;-)

I felt so refreshed when I woke up to my alarm…only to find out it was my roommates alarm and I still had an hour to sleep! Ha ha. :-)

On a lighter note, I will most likely be getting a single on the floor above mine for next year and it is for my major as well! I’m so excited and happy! I just hope I can get a single. If not, I may get a double on that floor or I may get a single over at Hewett Hall, which is the ajoining dorm to Manchester. :-)

Also this weekend on Saturday I’m coming up here (Driving my CAR!! YAY!!!) and picking up Vince and we’re going to go shopping, probably going to go out to lunch and then go back to my hometown. He’ll visit my family at my house and my mother said she would make Spaghetti for us awwwww. Yay. :-)

So yeah and now I have work today and I don’t think it’s going to be that bad today really yay. :-)

Hope everyone’s weekend goes well; I’ll be visiting home! :-)
