Calm has settled on the world.

School is done, I say with an audible sigh of relief.

The world seems so quiet and peaceful.

I did not do as well this quarter as I did in the last two. In addition to taking on way too many credit hours, and doing a bit more fandom than I ought (to escape from it), I fell into some old bad habits, namely: imbalanced effort. Putting a huge amount of effort into one project at the expense of others.

This is very satisfying for me, but gives teachers extra work for the over-kill assignment, and extra work for the assignment turned in late. I could never function this way in the business world.

So my grades for two of my classes aren't as good as they should be. I think I can afford a bad semester, though I'm certain to be knocked off the Dean's list. But I have to remember to treat school like I would a job and hit all those deadlines, regardless of the "perfection" of what I want to do.

Understandable ^^

Last semester I had to leave a fandom to get my grades back up. And it worked ^^ Before, I had all D's in my classes... by the end, I got them up to A's and B's. Although, one class I had a C, but I didn't deserve that at all (I sucked up to the teacher).

Take your time with the fandoms; it's sometimes wise to take a break when its needed.

As for all the things you hope to accomplish... I hope you do well in all of them ^^ Just remember to take your time and not overwork yourself ^^

As a footnote, thanks for adding me to your friends list ^^ Hopefully I'll be able to comment more on your LJ now that I have time, myself ^^

I may have done a little better than my worst fears: some work that was late was accepted (whew!). Cross your fingers, I still don't know what my grades are. I have a fairly good idea how I did in English, but History and the Humanities class? No idea.

"Well, at least it's all fresh and new, that first week of school," Icarus says with painful cheerfulness.

"Fresh? Smells like fish," said Al as he sat on his sticky chair. "They always repaint this. I can see the seventh layer already."

Feh. Am bit late, but if you want slightly quirky math explanations, please poke me.
