Phew!
Grades are in! So even after catastrophic bomb-ola on portions of my final exams, I got B's and a B minus - YAY!!!
B in biology, B (god only knows what the curve must have been...) in molecular bio, B in Japanese history (again, by an act of divine providence which we shall not examine too closely), and a B- in biostatistics.
Ta da! Yay! All things considered, this is pretty damn good. I was hoping that if the fates were especially kind, I *might* squeak out B's in molecular and Japanese - and apparently Atropos didn't have it in for me this semester.
This means hope is not lost for declaring a field of study in bio, that I am maybe still eligible for applying for special student status - all kindsa good. That stuff's dependent on a reasonable grade point average, which I have not totally wrecked. Not yet, anyway.
Um, if I start muttering about registering for another history course, will someone please either shoot me with a tranquilizer dart or talk me down, until that particular madness subsides? I do like studying the sweep of human events, of course; I just can't bring myself to give a crap about names and dates. Sort of important when you're taking history. Go figure.
Yay!

All B's is definitely good. In vet school the mantra was "C = DVM" (though I think most of us did consistently better than that).
I generally have the same problem with history. I like the stories and the overall scope, but trying to get me to remember who did what to or with whom when just doesn't work.
I am cheering for you!
Hooray! Congrats on the good grades!
I find that I best enjoy studying history by reading about it. Lectures are great, but often are accompanied by pesky things like tests and papers. :)
Yay, you!!!
Gimme and L!... Yaaaaay, Liz!
If you feel an urge to study the sweep of human events, you can always read a book or three. I recommend 1066 and All That.
