scatter brained

sometimes i amaze myself. and not in a good way.


today i had 2 finals. no biggie. went to the first and left feelin pretty good. it was 10:00 am and my next final wasn't til 12:30. or so i thought.


in the syllabus it said the final was at 11:30. i had written in my planner 11:30. but i could have sworn on my life that in the last class she said "remember that we changed it and, the final is at 12:30 not 11:30."


i must have really misunderstood.


i blame in partially on my deafness.


stupid genes.


anyway, i went to the library to study for it and kill time. i've been sick so i was feeling pretty crappy and just really wanted to go home. i was trying to study but my mind kept wandering, so noon rolls around and i still dont really feel ready for the test. but i just thought oh well because it wasn't really a "final" just a last test on the last few chapters, and we get to drop our lowest test in the class. so i thought if i do better good, if not who cares? i could just drop the final and still get a B out of the class.


so i go to the classroom what i am thinking is like 10-15 minutes early. there are like 2 people in there working on a test. i thought it was strage that there were only that many people there. at first i thought that she must just be letting people start it as soon as they came in. then as i walked past one person i noticed they were just checking over their entire test.


OOPS!


yeah it really started at 11:30.


so the professor says to me are you just getting here? i told her i had the time mixed up and she was fine with it and was still going to let me take it. she had to dig a test out of her bag because she was all packed up and ready to go. so i sit down, and the other couple people start to leave. i didnt want to make her sit there for like 30-40 minutes while i am the only one finishing the test cuz i am a blooming idiot and couldn't remember what time it was at. i looked over the test really quick and there were quite a few i didnt know, so i just left and told her that could be the one i would drop because it would probably end up being my lowest score anyways.


and call me lazy, but i am more than happy with a B. especially considering the fact that i only went to that class half the time.


so i wasted about 2 1/2 hours of my life up on campus studying for a test i didnt even take. and i was just sitting in the library when it really started. it's not like i was busy or anything.


for anyone reading this, it probably doesnt surprise you at all.


yep, thats me!


i'm a college student ;)
