Graduation Woes

[Currently Rocking]: Nirvana - In Bloom. Unexpected financial windfall allowed for the purchase of a used Nevermind album today at Soundwaves. I ain't 'gon be broke afterall! How cool is that?
I Write Like a Man
Effing crap, I write like a dood. I am currently in the library puttering away at my notes for my third Great Wars exam on Monday. I can't read shit! I have to fill in the blanks every few sentences or so to compensate for illegible words. When I get home, I'm going to take a picture of my manwriting for a visual aid to this entry. Gawww, I need to hire a professional note-taker.
Magna Cum Laude?
Yah, so my grades this semester do indeed count towards graduation honors. 2 1/2 weeks of class left, and the pressure mounts. Magna Cum Laude (3.5+) calculations:
Current GPA - 3.574
Spring 2005:
1 solid A
2 borderline A-'s
2 iffy B-'s Ideal Outcome:
*2 A's, 1 A-, and 2 B-'s, my GPA will drop 6 one-hundreths of a point (to a 3.514), leaving me in the clear. A Mixed Blessing:
The degree auditor just emailed to tell me that I will be 1 credit short of a diploma. El suckage! Thanks a bunch, Academic Advisor! (who, by the by, happens to the prof from the previous entry) *grumbles*
While I will be able to walk in May, I will need to complete that final credit over the summer. I've decided to take a cake class (Fundamentals of Drawing I) for this purpose. On the upside, the easy A will serve as a nice GPA cushion for the current crap-filled semester. School would be so much cooler if it weren't for grades.
No Sleeping Allowed!
Remind me that I am not allowed to sleep until 3pm on May 12, 2005. i.e. end of last final I've been doing somewhat ok so far, averaging at around 3-5 hrs/night. It's gotta get bumped down to 2-4 from now until the above date, though. I've been taking my multivitamins religiously to combat against my usual case of post-finals sniffles. We're almost there, Val.....!
*sigheth* Also remind me that I've got to get fitted for graduation regalia & that I've got to order invitations (perhaps). Ohhhh, mamacita....the kitchen's getting hot!
