It’s About Time I Get Back Home

I love college life, but I miss the place I really call home. It’s just over a day and a half left before I’m back in the Bay Area and I’m eager for a short change of scenery.

I just came back from my Econ1 lecture this morning and was a little frustrated with myself. I’m starting to get annoyed with all the graphs I’ve been drawing into my notebook and shifting them left/right or up/down. I guess what’s really bugging me is the score I got on my last midterm. I’m simply not used to taking a test and getting below the class average. I looked at myself in the mirror while I was brushing my teeth and a dejected look was still present on my face.

What did I do wrong? The Indifference curves were sloping in the wrong direction? Did I make a stupid miscalculation because I got confused with the difference of reading subsidies instead of taxes on the supply and demand curve?

Ahh noooo!!!!

I know I’ll go back to enjoying my Econ lecture by the time school resumes next Monday so there’s no need to worry about my sanity.

I’ll be home by tomorrow night until Sunday afternoon. I’ll probably try out some practice Calc. exams during the long car ride there and back to keep my mind fresh when the midterm pops up next Wednesday night. I’ve got one more class today to get over with and it’s not one I particularly enjoy: CAT1B. It’s basically my college’s writing requirement in which we discuss or argue about the relations between Culture, Art and Technology. But most of the time it’s a bunch of fluff. The occasional student comes up with a really convincing argument while others state their opinions in broken sentences in which the majority of their reasonings containing the words “like…like…like_____…like.”

I’m in need of a break.
