Fcukstration

I feel an urgent need to bitch about my Midterm Grades because I just saw it again. The MT for Econ 136 was easy.....we even were allowed to bring in a cheat sheet for heavens sake! But what did I do? I didnt copy all the formulas down. So I lose 11 points because I cannot remember the formulae for the first question and I mess up a little here and there. @#$%#@!! Thats ok if I didnt mess up the rest of the paper. But I did. A little. So I am now stuck with a B that counts for 30% of my grade. Damn it. If I had those 11 pts I would have a really high B+. Does that make a difference? It sure does.
I don't know what happening to me this whole academic year. I keep slipping in MTs and pull up my grades at the end. But the pulling up is not enough to get me my A and I Always end up with an A-. My grades are slipping! HELP! Whats wrong with me.

I know I am not putting in as much effort as I used to but its just that things have changed here. I guess having J in my life is abig factor as he takes up a lot of time. And of course theres PSP. And all the other things that are fun when you are in a new country with so much to explore.

Am I losing it? Or has my focus just changed. Am I just lazier? OR is it because I now divide my time up more. ITs not like I cannot balance my time, JC was crazy. Way crazier than now. But whats going on now then? Am I underestimating my peers? Arrgghz.

yeah i had Bs for all three of my recent econ midterms (30%, 35% and 30% respectively). some ppl just study really hard lor, and they set the curve for the A-grade. so i guess we have to match up to them too. tho' im not in ur uni, i can *feel the pain* too! heh. well, jia you!! =)
