Midterm Results

Well the results are in and it seems as if my midterms went okay. I only had one that I am semi disappointed in. I believe I should have studied a bit harder for this one. The majority of the test results were good though!

This weekend is another fun filled weekend away from Springfield. My best friend from high school is getting married this summer. So this weekend we are going dress shopping for bridesmaids dresses!! I am very honored to be a part of her special day. I believe the dresses are going to be black. I think this will be very elegant and not to mention, very pretty and possibly we can wear our dress more than once!

Oh yes! I almost forgot!! I tried sushi for the first time this week. Although it was not something I would ever order myself, I am very happy I tried it. It wasn't horrible. A few girls and I went down town to Kai restaurant and ate some of their half price appetizers. Sushi was one of them. I hate fish but I enjoy the sushi bar environment so I thought I would be adventurous while I was there. It turned out to be a not so bad idea! :)

I hope all the new students are enjoying their first term and midterms went well for all of you!

ONE MORE!

Just one more midterm left to go and I will be finished with tests for this week! YAHOO! We still dont have feedback on how our tests last week went so I will be anxiously awaiting the scores!

This weekend I went home to throw a bridal shower for my cousin. She is getting married in May and I am her Maid-of-Honor. We had a wonderful time and were able to spend time with friends and family we had not seen in quite sometime! It was very nice and tons of fun!!

This weekend it warmed up a bit so all the ice melted!! Last week we were off of school for a day and a half due to the terrible ice storm that came through. It was not as bad as last year I hear so I consider my self very fortunate! My advice to new students, bring a HUGE ice scraper and tons of D-Icer!! I do not think you can possibly have enough!!! It came in very handy when trying to open my car that had turned into a solid block of ice over night!!

Midterms

This week is midterm week. This weekend has consisted of studying for those midterms. No, not a very exciting process. But non-the-less it must be done. I feel I have a pretty strong handle on the material and will do fine on the tests. Last quarter's midterms were not too bad, I felt as long as I kept up with the material and reviewed, I would do well, and I did. So, I have taken that same route this term too. Hopefully it works out in my favor again.

Midterms are a bit more scary here. Unlike undergrad, you only have this test and your final to determine your test grades, in undergrad you had a test every three weeks or so. It is important to keep up with the material and lecture notes. Review in the last week before the test and go over the study guide to be sure you have covered every detail. You should be fine!

I will check in with you next week to let you know how my tests went! :) WISH ME LUCK!
