I haven't checked my notifications in 2 days...

I haven't checked my notifications in 2 days due to exhaustion.  To anyone that I've ignored - I'm working on it now!

I was awake at like 3 am on Monday morning.  I was in my bed - just unable to sleep.  🙁  I think I was too stressed over that test.  Monday was my long day - left the house at 9 am; got home after 10 pm.  Came home, went to Wal-Mart, did some house stuff, and died.  Not really, but dang.  I felt like I could sleep and never wake up.

Got up this morning unhappily.  I wanted to sleep for another few hours.  Made it through school, tutoring, and work with a headache that Ibuprofen wouldn't kick.  Now I'm home and so tired that I will not be moving from my couch until I drag myself to my bed.  Shadow's getting to go to school 2 hours late and I'm jealous.

Anyway.  Highlight of my day:  I got my new animal Bundle Monster plates and I'm super pumped.  There is a Quokka on one!!!  I didn't catch that the first time I saw them, but I noticed when I unwrapped them today.  There is also an Emu and a bunch of other super cool animals.  I can't wait to use them.  Since my brain is tired and I'm head-ache-y I might try my hand at painting my nails.  I feel like a mani with these deserves more time and thought than I can give it tonight, but I'm excited and I want to do something fun.  We'll see if I actually have the energy.  😂

I hope the week is going a little easier on y'all than it is on me.  ❤

I made an 81 on that Biology test!

I made an 81 on that Biology test! Woohoo! It's a B!!! 😃

Biology Test Drama:

Survived my Biology test. I believe I made a C, at least. I wonder when I'll find out...

I prefer math to almost any other subject.

Getting a later start on Biology today than I wanted to, but I think it's so intimidating that I've been putting it off this weekend. I've been working on it all week so maybe that's good. Time to buckle down again, though. 😕 First exam is tomorrow morning. 

Is it crazy that I always want to do my math work first? Every single semester, that has been the case. 😂

*****

I think I'm about all studied out.  🙁  Thankfully, I don't feel TERRIBLE about Biology - just definitely not as great as I'd like.  Oh well.

My adviser said that it's not uncommon for even A students to make a C on this first one so if I don't do as well as I hope (which is always an A, duh!), then I'll live.  But this is super not fun and definitely stressful.

Also, we're going over new stuff tomorrow that's on the test... right before the test.  I hope my short-term memory is in working order.

Wish me luck.  I feel like I need it!

Seriously.

Seriously.

Edited to add:  This was not about myself.

1)  I'm an atheist so I don't believe there is a god who sends people or responds to people.  I posted this because the response to that anti-choice crap is on point.

2)  I was aimless as a teen and had no real college ambitions.  Might as well have been a mother.  I do not regret my son at all - he gave me the motivation to work and get out on my own.  Life has been tough in a lot of ways, but now that I AM in school I have the drive do well because I've spent so much time knowing that the struggle is real.  But not every single mother (or homeless person, etc.) will end up in a place where they can go to college at some point if they choose and that is very sad to me.

I was on the last section...

I was on the last section of Trig problems when my brain just crapped out. I'm tired. Been at this all day. Didn't realize it was 1 in the morning. 😕

Me and the kid are making a quick run to McDonald's, then I'm calling it a night. 

I guess I'll spend all day tomorrow on Biology. Woo. 😕

Trying so hard, y'all.

Trying so hard, y'all. I'm digging the math of Trig, but there is SO MUCH to remember. I have at least 2 solid pages of notes similar to this of things I have to remember just to do the work. I'm sticking it in my brain with silly sentences left and right. I don't know what else to do!
