So, here I am, in the middle of dead week, or rather at the beginning of it. Where do I stand academically you might wonder...Well, all of my classes except two are outstanding. My grades are good and I'm on track. For the other two, things don't look so hot. I'm failing both of them, and if I completely bomb the finals, where will I be? Out on my ass, back at home, and freezing in northwest Indiana. I pray that things do not come to that, hence I am studying like a sonofabitch, but at the same time, the stress level is through the rough, and that tends to put kinks into the machine. I've got meetings with the two professors of those classes to see where I do stand, and how well I have to do in order to at least pass. It's kind of weird, in high school I never had trouble passing a class, hell I graduated number one, but once I got to college, I started accepting the fact that I had to struggle, and settled with getting c's and d's in classes. I never thought I'd be happy to see a d on my grade report, but if that's what I see for these two classes, it'll be the biggest celebration this campus has ever seen. So for anyone that reads this, keep me in your prayers, give me all the support you can, and hope for the best.
