    Re: Whatcha thinking about now? (v2)

    My midterms came back with mixed results. I passed 3 out of my 5 exams. Got 73% on the fourths (which isn't a passing grade in my program, we need 78%). I'm still passing the class overall thanks to various assignments. And the last one I got 66% on. Right now, with that test, I do not have a passing grade for that class. I'm hoping to meet with the instructors on the two I didn't do as well on so that I can figure out how to change my study pattern to better fit the classes and hopefully do a lot better on my next exams. Feeling really discouraged.

      You get upset about grades I would have been ecstatic to get back when I was in uni...but then again, we only needed 55% to pass.


      I just came back from six days in the motherland, and I miss it already.

          Yeah, it wouldn't bother me if it was a passing grade. It's all based on passing our boards though. We need something like 75% to pass the national boards, so they want to have a higher requirement for the program so that we're more likely to pass the boards because that makes them look better when people look at their program ratings compared to other Mortuary Science programs...

            Don't worry about it. Just keep positive and keep studying. I'm a note taker. Make lots of notes and keep reviewing if that is your style. Just have faith in yourself.

                The blackbird ie SR-71 replaced the U-2 though I think some U-2's remained around for other purposes. I know some people called the 71 Haboo though as well in OKI. All the 71's are history now though.

                Always heard their was a fighter variant initially of the 71 but it flew so fast it shot itself down with it's own bullets. Whether it was true or not who knows, one of those things you seemed to hear in the military, especially on Air Force Bases.

                  The blackbird shown above is a theoretical UAV and replacemenr for the current SR-71. As a potential fighter, if it could reach Mach 5+ then it is on par with or faster than some Air to Air missiles. If the SR-71 could pull similar speeds then that might be a concern with making it a fighter, especially when factoring in that early generation sparrow missiles were a lot slower than modern air to aor missiles.

                  "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

                    When the cat starts Meowing an hour and a half before they're usual feeding time, effectively waking me and not being able to go back to sleep even though it's well before my alarm is supposed to go off...really pisses me off.

                          We feed twice a day for a couple of reasons. Medication is one of them, but also, we found that when we only feed once a day, they over-eat and end up throwing up all over the place. This way, we reduce the amount they get each feeding time, which seems to have also mostly eliminated the regurgitating. Of course, Luna... the one that also meows incessantly is the one who works herself up to the point of puking, sometimes. I've read that some cats do that because their gut wakes up and starts to create the bile needed to break down the food. If they don't eat within a certain time, the bile makes them sick. She's also the one cat that has a hyperactive thyroid, hence the medication for her. It's a 'fun' cycle.

                            So glad that I have my two days of break. Been a very hard few days getting used to being a call center representative. However, I am just tired as of now. I will get the hang of it soon.

                              Getting texts and calls from people I work with saying they 'heard a rumor I was coming back full time' when I actually had a conversation with these individuals about making the decision to come back full time. *face-palm*
