Exam Day 1/29/14

Greetings Fellow Readers! Today Is Wednesday, January 29th 2014! First Off, I Want To Say That This Month Has Gone By So Fast Its Unreal. It Has Been Close To The End Of 3 Weeks Since I Started IWCC, It Has Already Been A Journey And Will Only Get More Interesting! This Morning Was Very Different From Any Other School Day, My Wife Had To Re-Wake Me Up After I Turned Off My Alarm, I Usually Get Up Rather Quickly And Get Dressed But This Time I Did Not Get Out Of Bed Until About 6:15am And That Is Unacceptable!

Anyway, We Got To School Just Fine, As A Matter Of Fact We Got To School About 25 Minutes Early. My Math Class Went Pretty Well Today, Only Needed Help Like Once, And That Was After I Had Hit Explain Like 6 Times. Only Issue Was I Could Not Help But Keep Yawning Every Few Minutes. After My Math Class It Was Time To Head To The Disability Center And Take My Intro To Computers Exam. Got There Just Before 9am And Got Into The Testing Area Maybe 2 Minutes After 9. My Class Had 50 Minutes To Complete The Exam, But I Got Accommodations From The Disability Center That Gave Me Time And A Half, So I Was Given An Hour And 15 Minutes To Complete The Exam. I Completed The Exam In Less Than 16 Minutes.

I Am Unhappy With My Exam Results, I Guess I Should Be Glad I Didnt Fail, But I Honestly Thought I Knew Most Of The Questions Without Using My Book Or My Notes, Guess Not...I Was Only Allowed To Take This Exam Once, But The Rest Of The Exams Will Be In SAM And Not In ROC So I Will Get 5 Attempts To Take The Rest Of The Exams Throughout The Remainder Of The Semester, And This Includes The Final -If I Remember Right-.

There Where 20 Multiple Choice Questions Covering 2 Chapters, Out Of A Possible 100.00% I Got A Disappointing 75.00%  Which Is Apparently A High C. I Know I Can Do Better Then That! I Studied As Best As I Knew How, And I Did Not Just Answer The Questions With Random Answers, I Legitimately Thought My Answer Was Correct, There Was Like 3 Questions I Was Unsure Of That I Could Not Find In The Book, But To Be Fair, I Didnt Look Very Hard, I Read It A Few Times And Thought About My Options And Chose The One I Thought Closely Fit The Question.

I Dont Know Why I Am Disappointed In Myself But I Am. I Just Wish I Would Have At Least Got A B Or A B+ Or Something. I Know I Can Do Better Than That I Just Dont Know Why I Didnt Apply Myself More To My Studies. I Did Go Over The PowerPoint Presentations And I Even Read From The Book, Guess I Didnt Read Far Enough Nor Did I Read It Enough Times. This Sucks!

I Am Really, REALLY In The Mood For Some Gummy Worms, But I Want The 3lb Bag Of Them And I Know If I Get Them My Wife Will Be Pissed, Partly Because I Think She Expects Us To Eat Lunch Together After Her Class -No Clue Whats On The Menu- And Because She Disapproves Of That Much Food At Once. Not To Mention It Is Almost $7 A Bag.

Anyway, Hopefully I Will Do A Lot Better On My Next Exam In Intro. I Get To Have My Papers Ive Turned In Handed Back Today -As Long As Class Isnt Canceled Again- So Im Praying This Day Isnt A Total Loss. Hopefully I Get A Good Mark On My Writing Points, I Honestly Dont Think I Am Going To Get A Very Good Mark On My Summary. It Is Way Too Repetitive.

I Enjoy My English Class A Lot, But I Think In The Coming Weeks I Will Be Greatly Challenged In My Writing Style And My Ability To Be Articulate. Being Challenged Is Never A Bad Thing Unless It Is Just Too Overwhelming For One Person To Handle. I Hope Its Not Going To End Up That Way! My Confidence Level Is Dropping Again, Undoubtedly Due To My Test Score Today. -See? Being Repetitive Again- 

Well, If I Never Make Another Blog Entry Yall Will Know That My Wife Killed Me And Buried Me In A Shallow Grave For Buying Yet Another Big Bag Of Gummy Worms! Its Kinda Like My Signature Snack For This Blog, I Am Usually Munching On Some Gummy Worms When Im Writing Up Or Debating On A Post, So I Guess Its A Ritual For My Writing Lol!

I Guess I Dont Know Anything Else For Now, My Wife Should Be Showing Up Here In A Few Minutes So I Should Probably Get Ready For Lunch. Ill Probably Post Another Blog Later Tonight Yall! Until Next Time My Friends! Find A Reason To Smile Today!

Be Safe, Take Care, And Have A Great Day! -Gabriel
