I finally finished my second math exam. It took me three days, not counting skipped days. I took it online and got a 75, and it disappointed me so badly. I do believe 75 is the lowest grade I've gotten in James Madison aside from the miserable 68 I got in Lit III... but I didn't really bother myself over that one since according to the school it's passing and it wasn't the first grade I got back for that class, so I knew it was just a one-time fuck-up. But it's incredibly disheartening to find that the first grade you get in a class is a 75. I mean, I don't know what I got on the first exam yet since I went retarded and mailed it in... I suppose I could take it online anyway since they haven't received it yet... -goes to do so, apprehensively-

Oh my god I feel better, not much better but better. I got a 90 on the first exam.

Still. I had such trouble with the second exam, and then when I looked back a couple mistakes were stupid ones... -resolves to check work much more thoroughly (read: check it at all) from now on-

-sigh- Now I have to do Physics. I should do the first exam for that class online too since it's another I stupidly mailed in the first test for... and I got an 88 on the second... which isn't good either. =(

edit 96 on first Physics exam, much better. -relief- Also, anyone know why people sometimes mark edits on entries with ETA? Doesn't that mean estimated time of arrival? And for that matter, what does the NB! on some hogwarts_elite contests mean? (I've been meaning to ask for a while XD)

Holy crap. DirecTV went even more ADD than Noah and changed my whole guide and menu system. o_O I didn't really like the old one that much, but the new one looks even worse. Whenever I hit guide it makes me choose what category of channels I want to look through, and it took me a while to figure out how to choose my profile so I get all my regular channels on there. -grumblegrumble-

Okay, so. Some days I feel like there's nothing to journal about except complaints, and it makes me feel so ungrateful x_x; So I'll find some positives first, like... I got a new Reader's Digest to read, and I'm rereading HBP -- maybe two chapters a day at this rate -- and... these commercials about a documentary about Arnold the Senator amuse me greatly. Like See Arnold Run, that really amused me. I was like, "Why not just get him to play himself anyway? o.O" Let's see. I'm planning on making some shop stuff today... can't wait for Hogsmeade voting.

Hum. I made my brother a livejournal (which he claims he'll never use and he's probably right)... hellsbreath. I need to go friend him. Huzzah.
