not as bad as i thought
well...i took an ochem midterm the tuesday before thanksgiving...and i left with a feeling that i flat out bombed it...which got me thinking that i need to crack the books some more...i felt like the next 2 weeks were gonna be pure hell, especially since ochem is gonna be my last final, and i would have to pretty much ace it to get at least a B in the class. well, yesterday i got my midterm back, and not to my surprise, i bombed it...but to my surprise, so did the rest of the class. the mean on the test was 65 out of 150, i got 67...and according to my professor (who curved the mean to a B-), i got a B-!!! i seriously lucked out there...and that relieved a lot of stress. but that's not to say that i'm gonna slack off studying...i still got 50% of a grade to earn for that class on the final...wish me luck!

in other news, Kaibigang Pilipino had the revealing of secret pals tonight. i had some guy named Chad who i had never met before. well, all i had gotten him up until the big surprise was 2 king-sized snickers bars. well, tonight i got him a new backpack (he asked for it, and then said not to get it...so what was i to do?) and inside of it, there was some unagi (eel sushi)...and he turned out to like the stuff i got him, which was good. my secret pal turned out to be Cyrus. the past 2 days he got me 2 bite-sized snickers, and wiper fluid for my car. today he got me this huge box stuffed w/ newspaper and a small pack of candy, and then he got me the real gift, which turned out to be fuzzy dice for my car, and a shot glass. he had me fooled for a bit, getting me to think that all he got me was a box full of newspaper. haha...thanks cyrus (if u ever read this)...ah well...time to sleep....stay tuned, we'll be back after these messages =)
