Back to school special
So grades were all in and I'm heading back for round two this year, let the fun begin! Classes are all set and I have to go in and buy the books this week, I'll probably do this on Thursday during the information session.
Classes for this semester:
Psychology 124
Interpersonal Communication126
Foundations of Psychological Science 120
Indigenous Australian Health and Culture 162
I'll be taking up ballroom dancing this semester on the side, so that should be pretty fun. I'll be doing it with Peta from uni on fridays, so it's not going to interrupt anything else. I'm looking forward to it, but I swear I remember other people were coming too.. I just can't remember who?! ah who cares, it'll still be fun!
I guess this means it's time to sort out the car problem, so I've listed the whole car for a grand in the paper; I just cannot be bothered parting the damn thing out. With my tax return coming in somewhere from 4-6k, it'll be enough to buy myself a cheap run around and have some cash left over to play with. Time to employ Chris' services at finding cars I think, given he's currently injured and off work it shouldn't be too hard to wrangle him in to helping out
I had my birthday the other week (oh god I'm 25...) and finally caught up with one or two people this week that I've wanted to for a while, it was really good. Though I was a little sad that I had to cut coffee with Bec short, but I guess there is always next time. That and chris won't fall off another roof for a little while I'm sure :p
Fun times, more when things happen.
I passed, I passed eeeeeeeee!
Psychology Professional Practice 115: 77 - Distinction
Psychology 123: 82 - High Distinction
Foundations of Psychological Science 110: 70 - Distinction
Health Science Communication 180: 83 - High Distinction
Awesome results, really happy with them. Two High Distinctions and two Distinctions, I can deal with that. I'd have preferred four HDs though >_< I'll push harder next semester, still I'm happy with the result.
Hope everyone else did well on their exams!
So now what
So the semester is over and I'm waiting for my official grades (here's to hoping I didn't screw anything up), the question begs; what now?
Maybe I should paint something, been a while since I did that and I do have a whole bunch of bare wall here... *ponders* I might just cover it in posters finally (5 years is a while..). I will probably pick up the guitar yet again and that's sure to cause my fingers some grief. I have been drawing and writing again, so I'll be sure to expand as much of that as I can in the time I have.
I have a few things planned at least, probably a few parties here and there and meeting up with a one or two people I miss.
Results aren't until July 14th either, feck.
Slowly slowly
So no recent updates as far as new posts go, the tablet post below (took a lot longer than one weekend) took up a good deal of time and I've been busy doing school stuff.
So at the moment school stuff is going as well as can be expected;
- I know I've passed Psych 123: 84% final grade, woot HD
- I know I've passed HSC 180: looks like 80 - 83% (part of how they calculate the grade is ambiguous) either way, another HD woot
- 115 I know I will pass now without a doubt 48.5% with an exam worth 40% that I'm not so sure how well I did on. I hate exams, even simple ones like that.
- I have two assessments back from FPS 110 (79.5% and 80%) 31.8% with 60% exam to go, I just need 20% out of 60% to pass... come on!
- I regret having to drop a unit while I was still working, but it's made life a little easier and I'll be making that up in the summer! I just have to wait to see how I go next semester now..
I'm still freaking out and praying that I pass everything, but as long as I study my ASS off over the next few weeks I will be okay. I guess I'm not alone in that regard, Soo, Peta and Maddie seem to be freaking out as much as I am, though Ben and Hayley seem to have things under control.
Speaking on people; I'm still just sort of existing while at uni, I haven't really gotten too in depth with most people and I guess I should start. Mostly because it kinda makes me shallow, as in all they usually see is the academic layer of me and not much else. Though I do show a few people a little more I guess.
On a similar note: Whilst I'm still keeping my promise (yes I know I made it last year, I work slowly okay) to remain open to letting a relationship happen; I'm just not feelin' it. I take that back... I did, but I don't see them anymore due to life taking me in other directions. The world is a big place we'll see where is take me and who I meet.
If wishes were fishes we'd all be well fed.
I've been listening to some wonderful pieces by Joshua Radin lately, thank you sooooooo much for introducing me to him Jasmin <3. I was the same when you introduced me to Mae too, so it's a good sign for how I'll be with his music over time. I throw him in with my Jack Johnson, John Mayer and Pete Murray and I'm gone
(pop in a bit of Andy Mckee too).
