Must... resist... urge... to drop...

It is almost exam time and that means.... THAT'S RIGHT! It means it's time for me to start thinking about what my grade will be if I fail an exam. Trigonometry will be the death of me. I was super good at it in high school. I got a ridiculously high grade in the class... like a 98% or something. And somehow, I never even remember learning these things. Are they creating new mathematical formulas and slipping them into the curriculum?

Anyways, last exam I left the test room thinking I had failed and after a week of depressing and wallowing we got the tests back and I magically received an astounding 99 points out of 120 with the average being somewhere around 61. I don't know how this happened, but I don't see it happening again.

So, short story long, I will need to justify my bombing this next one by 1. remembering I did good on the first and 2. committing myself completely to doing well on the next ones. And that is how I do college.

Math blows. Algebra I hate, but it's the only math I can see being useful. When am I ever going to need to prove Trigonometric identities outside of college? Hmm? HMMMM?
