Exams to begin shortly

Tomorrow is my first exam - genetics. My overall grade for the class is out of 650 points. We have five exams (the fifth is the final) worth one hundred points each, and the lowest one gets halved (i.e. if I make a 60, it counts as a thirty), so the total points from exams is 450. My highest exam score so far is 101. My lowest is 100. I think the one tomorrow will get halved. Not only that, to make an A in the class, you must earn 600/650. I've already done that. Looks like I only have to score a zero to make an A. Lovely.

Thursday is my Chemistry final - and I'm a little more worried about this one, but not as much, seeing as I only have to make a 70 on it to get an A in the class. Monday, I turn in my sociology exam, and then I'm done. I'll go home late Monday night, and on Tuesday I'll begin looking for some summer work experience.

I've had a lovely Sunday, Monday, and now Tuesday, though, it will be a shame to break my stride by taking my exam tomorrow. Oh well. The room is nice and quiet. No TV, but I really like it that way - it has just opened the room up so much! It feels so spacious in here now, and I've been watching movies on my computer - Three Men and A Little Lady, Jane Eyre, Moulin Rouge!, and Finding Nemo - while I snack on corn chips and chili con queso dip and some homemade banana nut and chocolate bread. Mmmm. Almost time to quit for the day too...what shall I watch tonight?

Oh, and I've gotten my first grade: Quantitative Chemistry Lab: A+
