I Will Overcome

So I finally got that rude awakening that my mom has been talking about since I started junior high.
Oh boy.
Is it not ironic that my current average in chemistry is exactly half of what is was when I graduated?
haha.
It is pretty funny.

Man, I'm gross today.
Not only is it warm and humid,
but I'm wearing a hoodie today.
And I'm only wearing a tank top under it, so I can't take it off.
And I'm pretty flushed because of the situation as previously stated.

But I went to see my chemistry prof and I'm meeting with him on Wednesday.
We're going to go over my test and he's going to give me a hand with other stuff I've missed that hasn't been tested yet.
Besides the embarassment of telling him my mark on the test - I'm not stupid, I'm really not - it was really helpful.
He said that if I finished level three with a 92 in chemistry
and if I came from Herdman
[insert Herdman promotion here]
I should have no problems.
And that I was probably just rusty from missing literally everything that was on the test.

So phew.
What did I lose, 2.53% or something?
So the most I can get this term in chemistry is 97.47%
I can live with a 97.47%.
I'm going to have to study my butt off on weekdays and on Saturday afternoons.
But the tremendous weekends here will make up for it.

The George Street suggestion made me laugh, Sarah.
Thanks!
I was serious, by the way.
At 10:30 or something, after my parents have called and I'm ready for bed.
I'll put this stupid test behind me, and start studying for that 97.47%.
I will overcome.

And wasn't that guy in the UC nice today?
He just said, "Excuse me, would you like this chair?"
He made my day.
Seriously.
I hope I do that for someone some day.
Nice people make the world.

And I'll conclude with a line that's been in my head since last night.
And is true right now.

If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
