I just got home.

I just got home.  I woke up, studied, got sick, went back to bed, woke up, went to lunch, studied at lunch, went to work, and came home.

I don't know why I am feeling bad off and on lately.  I'm not a huge fan of it, though.  😕

On the bright side I've got the best guy ever.  When I left work I told him that I was going to study when I got home and he told me to rest my brain instead.  So... looks to me like I will be doing my nails tonight.  🙂

Ok, today was better. 🙂

Ok, today was better.  🙂

Y'all, I'm ALL ABOUT CALCULUS right now.  Like, it gives me the feels.  I get excited.  My brain is like "explode" (in a good way).

My teacher emailed me some help after last weekend when I was having a hard time.  My notes were not incorrect and he explained why.  When I explained it to Shaun I think I exploded HIS brain, too!  He kept coming back to it, like "That's so cool."  I'm like, "Yeah.  😳"  LOL

So this whole week I have taken some time before work to study, and my teacher gave us time both today and yesterday to ask questions and get help.  Also, he gave us a practice test for the test that is coming up on Monday, so I really have no excuse to not ace that one.  There are some problems that I REALLY need to practice on, but I have some days to do that, so I will.  🙂

Other than that I found a pen this week on the ground at school, and a freaking pencil in the parking lot at school.  They were both in good shape!  SCORE!  😃

I am not really sure what's going on with me today, but I'm not feeling so great.

I am not really sure what's going on with me today, but I'm not feeling so great.  I went to work for a whole hour - maybe a little longer, but not by much if so.

Overall, I've been feeling much better since the Celexa kicked in.  But the last few days I've felt really drained and tired, and my stomach hasn't felt too great, either.

Hopefully, it will pass soon.  I feel really guilty for leaving work when Shaun has been working so hard to help me.  But if I take a step back and look at all I do - all the driving, all the studying, all the cleaning, all the stress, and still working on top of that - well, maybe I shouldn't be surprised that I'm tired and drained.  I feel like I used to handle it better, but maybe "level" me is struggling a bit with that pace.  I don't really know.

Like I said - it could just be something that is going to pass, and I really hope it is.  If not, I don't know what.  I guess I will have to find a new way to adapt.  I just don't think it's normal that I would totally climb in my bed and go to sleep right now (at 7:30 in the evening!) if I didn't have so much left to do.  😕

I did these on Saturday.

I did these on Saturday.  I guess you could say that I was inspired to water marble some more after I did it on my friend Deb.  I haven't done this in probably 2 years until this weekend, but it was fun.  🙂

I'm really digging this polish.  It is light gray with FLAKIES IN IT, Y'ALL.  FLAKIES.  😳  They give it just a little bit of color and shimmer - not too much.  I love it, which shouldn't be any surprise to anyone who really knows me, because gray is one of my favorite colors.  (Fun Fact:  Gray, Brown, and Green are my top 3 favorite colors.)

Anyway, not a super lot to say about it.  I just wanted to post because I thought it was pretty.  The thumb is my favorite.  🙂

Calculus has frustrated me almost to tears this weekend. 🙁

Calculus has frustrated me almost to tears this weekend.  🙁

I had something in my notes that seemed contradictory and I couldn't understand it.  I emailed the class (teacher included) late last night on Blackboard, and much to my surprise he wrote me back this morning and explained it.  I feel A LITTLE better, but OMG.  I feel like I have a thousand more questions now.

I will talk to him after class tomorrow and if I can't get worked out someone is going to have to tutor me.  I am not willing to get behind.  I have enjoyed most of it so far, but at the moment I am trying not to panic.  I feel like this is such a big deal and I want to do well.  I'm trying my hardest.

And with that I'm sticking my nose back in my book.

Later, friends.  ❤

Today started great, but I've been staying up too late the last few days.

Today started great, but I've been staying up too late the last few days.  I am still up about 3 hours later than I'd like to be, but I'm calling it a night very shortly, so that will be ok.

I ended up not getting far AT ALL in my Calculus homework.  🙁  I've had it confirmed by two people who are WAYYY more experienced at this math than I am that a number in my notes is incorrect.  That could be my error copying it down or the teachers - I have no idea, and I am not upset.  I just feel relieved that I am not insane and that I'm not (for some reason) unable to understand the material.

Unfortunately, I spent so many hours trying to figure it out that I didn't even start my homework - that was just me going over my notes so I felt confident enough to tackle it!  Tomorrow is a big day,  but hopefully I will find some time to get through some problems and get comfortable with it.

I hope your Saturday was great.  Goodnight, all!  🙂

It's been a pretty good day so far!

It's been a pretty good day so far!  Is there anything a girl needs aside from friends, food, and NAIL POLISH?  I think not.  😃

I reconnected recently with someone I hadn't seen in YEARS.  We chatted and I did her nails a few weeks back, and now she's hooked!  I got me a nail polish buddy!  😃  We've mostly been stamping, but I showed her how to water marble today.  Got lucky and the first polishes she picked worked!  It was great.

We ordered pizza and talked and did nails.  She even brought her son that Shadow and I hadn't seen in forever, so it was a good time.  I hope we can all hang out again soon!

I know most of my friends are probably watching the game or relaxing, but I gotta get into some homework now.  At least I got to have some fun today.  😃  Happy Saturday, friends!  ❤
