Done in a Way

after two days of light studying, totalling like 8 hours, and another 90 minutes of exam, i'm finally done with physical chemistry >.>

at this point, i'm not quite sure what to think. looking back on the semester, i might have done a bit better had i attended the recitation section. in the beginning of the semester, i attended the first few weeks of class, but my overall impression was that its usefulness was so little that i'd be better off simply reviewing the material on my own. a bit over a week ago, i attended the last section to find that only 5 other people showed up for the class which had over 60 students enrolled. had i gone consistently over the semester, i might have done slightly better on the class as a whole. however, i still feel that unless i had drastically changed my study habits, my grade in this class wouldn't have changed much.

in about an hour, my friends and i are going to go bowling. it probably will be the last thing we do together before we all go home over the holidays. currently, i'm in the process of planning a visit to new york to see a few of them before school starts in the spring. having never been farther east than my school, it will be an interesting experience to say the least. at the moment, i'm not too sure what i'm gonna be doing at home. hopefully, i'll be able to meet up with a few of my high school friends. if anything, i'll probably call a few of them and drag them home or something xD.

the only thing really left for me to do at school now is the optional final and packing to go home. as of now, my grade in my instrumentation class is a B. since the final is optional, that means i wont lose anything by not taking it or failing it. after a bit of calculations, it looks like i need a 103% on the thing to get the 90% for an A. at this point, it doesn't seem like i should even take the thing. however, there is a chance that my teacher would put some extra credit problem on the exam which would in fact give me a chance at the A. but as with all tests, there is a higher chance that i simply make stupid mistakes and miss a few points, leaving me with a score that's less than what i need. i'm probably going to take the exam just to see if there is even a chance of my getting the score i need.

since my brain is dead now, i'm gonna do some mindless grinding now while i wait for the meeting time to come.
