| so last week was the last week ever. it was terrible. so bad. like, i should have exploded or imploded or the world should have ended or something. let me tell you a scary scary story... so mondays are my worst. i have a 9:55 class which ruins my whole day on its own. then i have a free period, then another class, then a free period, and then my last class which i had a frickin' midterm in. a midterm in gb 203 that i did not study much for. it was bad. lots of guessage. immediately right after my effing midterm at 5:00 pm, i had to go to the executive dining room in lacava to serve food to people visiting bentley and other students for the Food Fest. it went really well... we had delicious thai food that lasted just long enough. the whole thing was supposed to end around 9:00 pm. i think i got out at like, 8:30 but i had a Model UN meeting at 9:00 but i didn't end up going cuz i needed to work on my finance project. my finance team met at 10:00 and we worked for like, 1/2 an hour... didn't get anything done seriously. sucked balls... stayed up forever doing stuff... tuesday was pretty bad too. i got to sleep in a bit, take a gloriously long shower... then i had to go to chinese class. after chinese, i ended up going to go eat lunch at lacava and study for my tutor session. didn't get too much done at lacava and i had to leave... but i almost fell down the stairs at lacava. i went to smith, planning to go to the trading room to do some finance before my tutor session. but i bumped into someone and ended up sitting and ranting instead. i left a little early to get to CLIC a little before my tutor session at 3:20 pm. my tutor session took a grand total of 10 minutes. pretty fabulous. so it was 3:30 and i had time to go live in the trading room and look for ratios and figure out how to analyze the financial performance of my stupid company. i was there until i absolutely had to leave for Gospel Choir. which i ended up being a little late for. i was planning on leaving early, going back to my room, grabbing my music... but no. i was rushing. so i was out of breath and super tired when i finally got there. overall, gospel choir was pretty good. i got to have a date with brooke afterwards. good thing i decided to go to seasons. that was possibly the only time i went to seasons the whole week... and it was a good day. they had the fall harvest dinner thing. mmm delish. sooo good. the stuffing, the turkey, the mashed potatoes and gravy. oh, the desssert! there was pie and there were these tarts. so delishhh! and yummy bread. mmm. why can't they feed us like that all the time? and then i freaked out because the clock was wrong and i thought i was super late for my finance meeting and i hadn't done my part for it yet and i caused a scene and embarassed brooke. it was great... so i was in the bubble from like, 7:30 until past 9:30 when i ended up being late to my BASA eboard meeting cuz we had so much crap to do. and then everyone in my team ended up leaving right after i left instead of finishing the project. and then after the meeting, i was up forever working on the financial performance for it. and people weren't emailing their parts to someone on my team and i had to call someone and leave an angry voicemail and then call his roommate to make him do his crap. i was an angry person. i was highly unhappy. then i had to finally give up and go to bed. and diana burned her face with her curling iron. wednesday was the worst day of my life. my project was due, i had a BASA event, i had so many things to do. i got up early to finish my part of the project and to make sure i took the shuttle up to upper campus. i was planning on finishing before i had to go up but i had to keep on editing everyone else's crap for the project. and there was a total section of the project that didn't get done. and i needed to get the 2 year stock trend from the trading room. and that totally didn't end up correctly cuz the thing i pulled was just the numbers and not the actual graph. more pissed offage. and then i had to go to a make up chinese class and leave the project in the incapable hands of my team members. and i had to keep working on it during my make up chinese class so i had no idea what was going on in that class... and then there was a fire alarm. and there was just so much wasted time. i was a mess. i looked terrible. it was gross. so i was still editing crap during my chinese class and totally bsing to finish the financial performance junk. auugghhhh. which means i need to get 100s on everything in that class from now on for any hope of getting a 4.0 which i totally need because i got a 3.3 for my gb 202 class and my gpa can't take all this. and then i had to go print it out myself because the team member who was supposed to was mia. plus i had all the junk cuz she had to work in the morning and couldn't do anything with the project. auugghhh. just talking about it makes me mad... i totally blew up at people all day. i scared someone over aim. he didn't believe it was me. and i was cursing. i cursed. i do not curse. i was cursing. and i was so angry. and i complained to anyone who would listen. and then when i brought it to class, it turns out that i missed something: the dupont analysis for one company was not updated and they were each labeled under the wrong company. so i had to fix it, run back to the library to print it out again, and i was late to class. auugghhh. so angry. and then i had to go to another class. and that was gross. i had to turn in a quiz. and i found out i got an 83 on a midterm... including the 5 point curve. auughhh. and then i went back to my room to shower cuz i was so discussing. and then i had to go to the BASA games night event but then i remembered that it was also the passport party. so i wanted to get my passport but i didn't have any checks to pay for the stuff so i had to get someone to give me the money and come to think of it i still haven't given her the cash for it. argh. so i was running up and down all over student center because the event was in the back bay and the passport party was in the living room and i had all my paperwork but i left my pictures in my room. so i had to run back to my room. and i didn't want to do the form by hand so i did it electronically so i could print it from the bubble. then when i was finally ready to turn everything in, i didn't have enough cash to pay the $30 fee so i ran to the ATM and frickin fell up the stairs. yes. fell. forward. and scared some poor guy who was behind me who was like, "whoa. are you ok?" and i was like, "yeah." and then i got up and walked to the atm. and that was the last time i walked with fairly little pain... oh, and i was in a rush cuz the passport people were leaving in five minutes. so i finally got it all done. and my foot hurt. and then i went back to the BASA event. and my foot continued to hurt. and then it got swollen. and turned colors. and then our event ended. and then i had to go to my finance meeting in the bubble to talk about our presentation which was going to be on friday. and this guy looked at my foot and told me i was going to be fine. and then we made our powerpoint and assigned what needed to be done to each person. and then we went home. it took me forever to walk back. it was terrible. and when i walked into my room i guess i made a crying sound and my roommates took care of me from there and it was ok. i iced my foot. and i whined. and my period started that night. that was great. and i got tiger balm for my foot. and i didn't study for myand i don't really remember much of what happened that night. i put on a few socks. supposedly that makes it not swell as much. didn't help. loser. thursday morning. i made megan make sure i got up by 9:30 so i could call health services and make sure i got an appointment. so i started talking to the lady who picked up and she was like, "hold on, let me get someone to talk to you..." and then i talked to a doctor or whatever and she was like, "you need to go to urgent care and get that xrayed." greeaaattt. and i was like, "well, i have a midterm at 11:20 and a class at 12:45. can i go to those first?" and the lady was like, "um." and my econ prof is a total douche who is completely unrelenting on his midterm policies. i knew he wouldn't let me make it up and i couldn't have all the weight on my first one cuz i only got an 86. and i KNEW he was unrelenting cuz i tried to get out of the first one to go to the mbx but he wouldn't let me. auugghhhh. SO, i knew i had to go take it. and i was telling the lady that i had another class and she was like, "you really need to go to urgent care." and iiii... went to take my midterm AND go to my class, with a potentially broken foot. i don't think my professors appreciate that i went to their midterm and class with a potentially broken foot. mhmm. yes. but i did get CP to drive me up to class so i didn't walk... it was still terrible. it was raining. and i wore flipflops cuz i was afraid to wear anything else. so after class i called CP again to take me to urgent care. so went to the hospital all by myself... it was terrible. i wanted to cry. when i was sitting in my hospital bed, i just wanted to cry, let the tears fall... and the xray was so uncomfortable. and i was so confused... and then the doctor was like, "i see nothing." and that was that. no broken bones. nothing. didn't wrap my foot. gave me a funny shoe that doesn't really fit and i called CP to take me back to school. the doctor told me not to walk around. and didn't really let me know that i could go... i was confused. and then after i called CP, i called daddy and let him know i'd been at the hospital for like, 3 hours. i'm such a brat. i'm a terrible child. i'm so mean. who just blurts that out to their parents and make them worry. gosh, i have problems... but then it was ok... CP came and took me back to school. it was a cute guy... and then i went back to my room, changed, totally didn't stay off my foot like the doctor told me to. went to gospel choir, had to stand the whole time cuz there was like no one there and we really had to sing. and then i had to rush off to leave to go watch macbeth. and i was starting to get a headache and i had no advil. and i finally got to the collins parking lot. and then we all left to go watch macbeth. and we parked kinda far away and it was hard to be like, "yo. i sprained my ankle yesterday and i was at the hospital forever today by myself. can we slow down??" and i ended up falling behind kinda and i was afraid that i'd lose them. cuz they crossed the road and i was still on the other side. and then there was almost a car accident in front of me. oh man. good thing the bmw had good brakes... holy cow. and then the play. good grief. all female cast for macbeth. and the lights. gosh. it was long and it was loud. and i missed grey's anatomy. ugh. what the bananas. so not worth it. my headache got soo bad. and i was supposed to work on my finance presentation. couldn't do it. too much pain. i had to take pills and lie down. and i felt so sick. but diana, the bestest person in the whole wide world made me food. she's so wonderful. :D i heart her. so i ate something and felt way better. and thennn... i had to do my chinese hwk. and there was a lot. SO much chinese hwk. gosh. friday. the day of my finance presentation. i was feeling pretty good. i got up early to get dressed, look good, work a little with derek before the shuttle came. took the shuttle up so i wasn't walking and finished my chinese hwk... which was all the chinese in the world. the woman is insane. gosh. and then we had our final run through of the presentation. felt prepared and good. went to chinese class. went well, finally turned in a tutor sheet on time. rock steady. and then we had finance class... had to give our presentation. totally went awesome. and then, the man had to question the dupont analysis, my portion of the presentation. all this crap about numbers and where they came from and why did they happen. frickin' a. i couldn't say anything except, "i can't answer that off the top of my head." great. fabulous. way to destroy my world. i'm so glad i don't have that class again until after thanksgiving. uuugghhhhh. ruined my day. at least we got out of class early cuz the presentations were done early. and then i waited in einstein's for fred who i was meeting to talk. and we talked about life and Christianity and our church and ushering. lots of stuff on life. personality. i need to take the myers-briggs personality test. and then i finally got back to my room. my lovely maryann was worried cuz i didn't get back until like, past 5? it took foreverrr to walk down. and she wanted to go to harvard square to return her $120 coat which she totally paid too much for... so we went to harvard square. turns out she couldn't return it. we were sad and unhappy. and then we went to kfc. holy cow. so delicious... good choice. and then i had to come back for church. i was worried that i was missing my ride. but vivian was late so it worked perfectly. i got to eat lots of my potato wedges. so so so yummy. i am breaking my boycott against kfc. mhmm. they've reformed. and church was great. super interesting topical study. i really liked it. very interesting. good stuff to know: how to answer tough questions. validity of the Bible, hypocritical Christians, universalists, and the problem of suffering. good brain pickers... makes you think. mhmm. good stuff. and after ICF, i went back to the room and went to bed early. it was fantabulous. and that was the worst week of all mankind. it was followed by a saturday during which i did not leave my floor. i only left my room to go next door to work on our chinese video for our final exam. and the sweetest people alive came by to bring me breakfast. so so so sweet. even though i didn't get to eat breakfast until like, 5:00. and then i showered and did my nails and we watched American Gangster. it was ok. eh. and then we just chilled out. it was great. and then i got to spend some quality time with diana. that was great too. and we went to bed early like the little old ladies we are. mmm. that was niiice. and then i went to church on sunday, came back early, skipped kitchen clean up. did my gb 203 excel assignment to near perfection. and i was supposed to make the video for chinese that night but that didn't happen. and then i ended up watching the AMAs with diana instead of working on my lit presentation and we were depressed. so we did that. and i was supposed to give a presentation during my 12:45 lit class on monday but that was postponed until our next class after thanksgiving break. score! so things are looking a lot better this week... then again, it'd be really really hard to look worse. i'm ready to go home. |
