Wednesday, August 9th is the final exam for Calculus III. That is a month from today. We have 3 tests scheduled (not counting the one tomorrow) within that time. 😲😳😳
I genuinely hope that I never have to take another summer semester in my life.

Focusing my frustration on getting things done.
Focusing my frustration on getting things done. Going over Calculus notes. Isn't it pretty? Look at all the numbers! ❤️
I just turned in the last of the paperwork that UAB wanted.
I just turned in the last of the paperwork that UAB wanted. They said that they would be in touch within three business days, so hopefully I will know if they can help me next week.
It's a sad state of affairs when someone who works as hard as I do has to accept "drug trial" treatment for a medical condition, and worse yet that I had to jump through so many hoops to find out if I'm worthy of said help. No one should have to go through that. This is not the country I want to live in.
Yes, I'm changing my life so this won't be an issue FOR ME forever, but so many others don't have the ability to do what I'm doing. Just because I will eventually dig my way out of poverty doesn't mean that this issue will go away. Even if free healthcare isn't ever an option, there has got to be something better than this.
Rant over, I guess. Pardon my grumpiness, but my skin is coming off, it hurts to wear clothes, my bones ache, and I'm getting very close to losing a thumb nail. I don't feel so good. #neverthelessshepersisted (<--- Giving zero shits right now if that is used out of context. It is giving me life.)
Done with Lit mid-terms and feeling pretty good about them.
Done with Lit mid-terms and feeling pretty good about them. I have two Cal tests on Monday, though, so it's not a play / relax / do your nails kind of weekend. Boo.
After the Calculus tests on Monday, we only have two more exams, one of which is the final - and that's it. Semester will be done. My time at Gadsden will be done. I hate that I can't savor the flavor more, but right now all I want (desperately) is a few weeks off. But my time is coming. 😃

It's 3 a.m. in the mornin' and...
It's 3 a.m. in the mornin' and I will try not to bust out in Eminem lyrics. 🤣🤣🤣 If anyone else is awake because it's a holiday and your schedule is jacked, raise your hand! 🙋♂️😜
Thankfully, it's been a pretty productive day. I made some flash cards for my Literature mid-term and I'm getting anywhere from 95 - 100% when I run through them, so that is comforting. I also picked a topic and started on my literature mid-term essay. None of this is due until Sunday, but I'm planning to take my exam on Thursday and hopefully have the essay completed then, too.
I found out yesterday that we're allowed to re-take the Cal test I bombed when we take the new test on Monday, so... that's a lot of Calculus, but I'm planning be ready. We'll find out the rest of what is on the new exam tomorrow in class, and I've got my paws crossed that it won't be anything awful. We'll see.
Other than that I spent the rest of the day comforting scared animals, approving members and posts in Happy Tails Lost & Found Pets of Calhoun County, and resting up. I'm trying my best to take it easy because it IS vacation time (from one of my jobs), but I do want to make sure I'm on top of things for school. It is what is going to change my life, so it is the most important thing. Yay, priorities!
I hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday. I hope you all had a good time, but not so good that you couldn't care for the innocent lives in your charge (be they human or otherwise).
And with that, I'm off. I'm gonna get some sleep so I can try to be "normal-ish" the rest of this week. LOL ❤

Neon nails!
Neon nails!
I think my camera just couldn't handle the neon yellow. My skin looks dead and the neon doesn't quite pop. I don't know what to do, but I have mid-terms coming up, so I can't edit on this photo all day. 😜
So even though it's been rainy here the inspiration for these was the sun! The hot, blinding, Alabama sun. ☀️🌞☀️🌞☀️
These are not colors I'd normally wear, but I had an idea and ran with it. The base is an orange to yellow gradient, and then I've got some sparkle thrown on there, then topped with a metallic red stamped image. I think they look interesting, but I'm not sure if I like them. LOL I will probably take them off and do something for Independence Day soon. I feel like these hurt my eyeballs. 😂😂😂
