#5055 – huh, when did that happen?

so apparently my current GPA is 2.824. i didn’t think it was that high, but there it is.

the kicker is that if i get an ‘A’ on each of my three classes this semester (not likely, but humor me for a second), and an ‘A’ on each of my three classes i take this summer, i’ll end up with a 3.0004 GPA according to this calculator. woah!

1 B: 2.9754

2 Bs: 2.9504

3 Bs: 2.9254

4 Bs: 2.9004

5 Bs: 2.8754

6 Bs: 2.8504

even so, i’d say those are very good for someone who’s been working full time and taking classes at the same time. GPA isn’t everything, you know. but this definitely helps me out for places that i may apply for that prefer a GPA of about 3.0+.

i’m confident in As and Bs for this semester, pending the final exams and projects due this weekend — everything i can see for so far has been graded between 85% – 100%! go team me! this latest tidbit of school news definitely gives me extra incentive to want to do well through the end of this summer!

and, if i have to take one more class — i haven’t yet heard back from my advisor whether or not i’d have to take 123 credits — then at least that gives me extra leeway in bringing up my GPA. sweet, i guess!

#5052 – how do you spell "relief"?

last night? 4 hours of sleep. the night before? 4 hours also.

i was ok at work yesterday, but today i was feeling out of it and not so well, so i decided to take half of a sick day. i think it’s also stress — there’s been too much crazyness and b.s. going on the last few days and through next tuesday to really relax and feel comfortable.

just finished lunch, now time for a nap!

#5051 – time to find a new place to live!

friday: someone’s driver-side window was broken in the parking lot outside the apartment

saturday: there was an armed robbery in the parking lot by the dumpster

saturday night / early sunday: someone vandalized zenmetsu‘s girlfriend’s car with red spraypaint on the hood

what really annoys me is that dan and kat found out about the armed robbery from the police officer who came to respond about kat’s car being vandalized, and that the day after the event the apartment management hadn’t yet informed the residents. the broken window was a bit easy to find out about (gee, there’s a lot of vehicle glass on the ground! i wonder what happened? oh look, it’s a day later and now there’s a car with a trash bag in place of its window!), and that may not necessarily have been vandalism (though it’s likely).

the lease is up at the end of june – time to find a new place to live! 😛 problem is i’d want to find some place that i’d be able to go month-to-month because i have no idea what i’ll be doing not even 2 months from them when i’m hopefully done with school in august.
