stupid people, crazy weather, and school

I'm really pissed off at some people (mostly girls) in my math class. They talk all through class...loudly. They were told to be quiet before and moved away from each other, but somehow they have ended up back together and talking again. The professor has stopped saying anything to them. I feel like they're being extremely rude. If they don't care about the class, then they should leave. Because of their talking I'm missing important details of how to do these problems. I wanna Gibbs' slap them all!

There's this other girl in that class that I feel should get an F. She came to the first 3 classes and then disappeared. I assumed she dropped the class. But no, she showed up today after a month and a half of missing classes. She boohooed to the teacher about having 2 jobs and the teacher actually told her that as long as she took the 3 tests she missed before December 12th, she will pass. WTFH? This is college not high school, if you don't come to class for that long, you should fail.

And now the weather. Yesterday it snowed. It hardly ever snows in Portland and never this early in the year. It wasn't a lot of snow really and it all melted, but still it was weird. And then today, it was windy as hell and raining. It was as cold as Frosty the Snowman's balls out there! The wind cut right through all 4 layers of clothes I was wearing. In spite of feeling like a big dork, I wore a scarf and gloves to class today...and I'm glad I did! It's supposed to be even colder and icier tomorrow. Joy oh joy.

There are only a few weeks of school left. I'm excited for this term to be over! I'm not worried at all about passing my Psych class. I know my grades are good. I'm a little worried about the math final. I learned so much that I didn't know before, but it's a lot to have to remember. I'm going to be studying like crazy over Thanksgiving weekend. My writing class, I don't know what to think about. We have only 1 big paper left and I've been working on it. It's worth 30% of our grade so it could really go either way. I have a B so far and I'm hoping to keep it.

I signed up for next term's classes on Friday. I'll be taking Psych 201, Writing 122, Math 65, and a class that's supposed to help with test anxiety. I'm excited about the psych class. The math is more algebra, so I'm a little worried about it. I'm dreading the writing class. I only decided to go ahead and take it so I could get it over with. It's the last writing class I'm required to take. The only bad thing about getting it out of the way is that starting in Spring term, I'll have to take science classes: Chemistry, Biology, Anthropology, and Environmental Science. I have to take them all at some point in the next 2 years. And I think 2 of them have to have labs to count toward my degree. (Sarcastic) Yipee!
