A couple of weeks of part-time work and 9 pages later...

A couple of weeks of part-time work and 9 pages later and I have finally completed the 10... YES, 10, questions that were on my Cal I take-home test.

Last night as I was getting ready for bed...

Last night as I was getting ready for bed I walked into the corner of one of my end tables with my thigh.  It hurt SO BAD.  It is now swollen and I have a big blue / black bruise.  It hurts to sleep on that side, but I also have a bruise on the arm on the opposite side, so just... dang, man.

I got up 3 different times this morning to go Black Friday shopping - ON THE INTERNET!  FOR NAIL POLISH!  LOL  I probably spent more than I should have, but some of them were gifts and honestly I work so dang hard that I just wanted to treat myself.  I scored some stuff that I'm super excited about.  I can't wait until it gets here!

I feel like I'm behind on my whole life right now.  Met up with some guys from Calculus this morning and one guy checked my work - looked correct to him, too.  I guess the downside to having a test that I can bring home is that I can obsess over it until I am crazy.  😕

Anyway, I am off to work on more Calculus.  I have a headache and I'm tired.  REALLY not feeling 100% right now, but I feel like I haven't accomplished nearly enough this week.  I'm starting to freak out and I know the added pressure and stress isn't going to make me feel any better.  The best thing I can do is work on it.  Blegh.

I hope you all are doing well.  Have a great night if I don't pop back in before morning.  ❤

It was a pretty good day.

It was a pretty good day.  Felt like Thanksgiving rather than a birthday, but that's ok.  That is just par for the course with a late November birthday.  I'm always up for food that isn't straight from the microwave (because that's how I roll), so home-cooking makes me happy!  Seeing all the family was great.  I don't have enough free time for now to be as connected as I'd like, unfortunately.

Other than that I'm glad to be home. I feel like we were running all day.  I'm exhausted, but I'm working on my Calculus take-home test until my brain craps out.  LOL

I hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving!  ❤

Guess which girl is feeling better about Calculus.

Guess which girl is feeling better about Calculus. THIS ONE. 😃

Look at my graph. According to this, my points of inflection are where they should be. WOOHOO!

Finally, a nail pic! 😃

Finally, a nail pic! 😃

I don't normally take nail pics in full sunshine, but these polishes were far too pretty for anything less. I'm time-crunchy right now, so I will edit this later and add what I used, but for now, just know that I was going for a forest-y, mysterious, magical, woodsy kind of feel. Nothing in particular, although the words on my thumb might be from a book (says Shaun. I don't know.)

Yesterday was pretty good. 🙂

Yesterday was pretty good.  🙂

When I woke up I got a chunk of my Calculus work done.  Can I just say that Sigma Notation is rocking my face off?  It's BEAUTIFUL.

After that I had a tasty lunch with Shaun and his parents.  Then went to work for a while.  After that, helped a friend in math.

I feel really embarrassed to admit that at this point I have been stumped twice by basic algebra.  🙁  Apparently, I am now in the habit of OVER thinking math and making things more complicated than they need to be.  Maybe it's just where my brain is due to Cal, but I hope it doesn't last forever.  I don't want to be an educated person who can't see the simpler solutions that are out there.  😕  I was all geared up to teach my dad some Trig the other day when all he really needed was the Pythagorean Theorem.

ANYWAY after I got home we had Taco Bell and then I watched TV with Shaun FOR HOURS and guess what else...  I FINALLY DID MY FREAKING NAILS!  Yay for me time!  I've been wearing plain polish over the last few weeks because I've been bad... that's a whole 'nother post... but no nail art UNTIL NOW.  I will DEFINITELY  get some photos today because I am psyched.  😃

Well, I guess I'm going to get ready for work.  I've got another busy day ahead!  Happy Wednesday, friends!  ❤

I am finally done with my Psychology project!

I am finally done with my Psychology project!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

*does happy dance*

Now I get to spend the rest of the week on my Calculus take-home test, getting ready for the next Calculus test, and getting my notes ready for the test after that.

And maybe I'll even get to rest a day!  😃  (Perhaps on my BIRTHDAY?!  [aka:  Thanksgiving])

I am so dang happy that I've FINALLY completed a thing.  I have been working SO HARD.  RIDICULOUSLY hard.  It has been awful.  LOL

Thank you to everyone who participated in my Psych study.  I know that I probably failed to get back to some of you, but I got wayyy more of a response to that post than I imagined I would.  The people who I sent questions to mostly got them back to me really fast, so I just used the first ones in.  Sorry if anyone feels neglected.  I was so absorbed in getting it done that I lost focus on everything else.  Maybe the rest of the week won't be so hard.  We'll see.  🙂
