96%

Okay, well I took my anthropology midterm on Tuesday. I wasn’t too nervous about the midterm, even though I should have been, so I basically didn’t study for it on Monday night. On Tuesday morning I studied with my friend in the library for a couple hours before the test. I got a lot done and it really helped even though of course I felt as though I could have studied much more the night before. When I got the test I was pretty nervous considering I really had no idea what my chances were for getting an A. When I started taking the test, I went straight for the fill in the blank section. It was over various things and it was pretty easy. So that boosted up my confidence. I then started all the multiple-choice questions and some of them were tricky of course, but I managed. One hundred twelve questions later I handed in the test. I surprisingly felt pretty confident about it. On Thursday my professor started handing back the quiz and midterm, I suddenly felt nervous for some reason. My two friends got their midterms back next to me and they both got D’s so I then started getting much more nervous. Then he handed back my test and quiz. I slowly opened my eyes as I peeked at my grade. I then felt my adrenalin pumping right away. I was so happy and pumped up. I got a 96% on the midterm and a 100% on the quiz. I felt so elevated and amazing. So in the end, I am basically acing that class right now and most of my other classes. I pretty much love college.

First Midterm Update

So I know that it has been a long while since I have updated, but here it is.

College is going great. I am getting good grades and I am making friends quickly. On top of the whole college thing, i have been working every friday and saturday, and I love my job.

So those two factors alone have been contributing to a wonderful school year so far.

In more recent news (as of the last week) I have started a jump rope workout regimen. I know it doesn't seem like any big deal, but this jump roping burns. You would think that the only thing that would be sore from doing this would be your calfs from repeatedly jumping, but my abs, neck, and shoulders are KILLING ME. I love being sore, I should do it more often, but I loose focus much of the time on that portion of life. Hopefully this time will be different, but I doubt it.

Wait, I'm doubting myself right now, I need to slap myself in the face....okay I'm good now.

My new obsession is spending WAY TOO MUCH money on makeup. I don't know what is wrong with me. Maybe I'm starting to feel the power of spending my own money, but either way, it's bad.

During the urge of going makeup shopping I went into Ulta and talked to a makeup artist. I told her about my skin problems and my breakouts, and my over active oily skin. She gave me a new face regimen called Dermalogica Medibac Treatment.

Let me tell you, it has been one the best purchases in my entire history as a human being. I have tried and tested sooooooooo many acne treatments, over the counter and prescription, but nothing has ever been better than this. Literally, within three days of using it, my face is almost flawless. On top of the regimen, the makeup advisor told me about this skin care facial treatment that a trained professional from Dermalogica does to completely clean up your face. She said it's like a teeth cleaning for your face. It's not even that expensive, for over an hour of treatment it will cost 55 dollars. It might seem like a lot for some, but for me, I'm really willing to do it for BEAUTIFUL skin! So I have that appointment on Thursday. I'm excited.

One of the most influential moments that have happened since I last updated my blog, was the revelation about my major and career choice. After thinking about everything going on since the beginning of my freshman year of college, I decided to make a change in my field of study. I knew that I loved psychology, I knew that I loved history, and I knew that I have wanted to teach for some time now. So I put all those factors together and decided I wanted to be a secondary social studies teachers with a focus in psychology. To do this I would have to major in secondary social studies education with a minor in psychology. Right now at this very second I am waiting for an email from one the education professors to come to talk to them about my schedule for next semester. I  am extremely excited to find out what I will be taking.

As you can see from this updated blog post is that everything is going well. I love my job, I am doing well in school, and I am excited to start my new life after college.
