I realize now, with such a bad economy, I need to do my best in school. Maybe it doesn't seem like much but every little bit helps and what's better than being able to put a good GPA on a resume?
I remembered this one time when I almost screwed myself over big time.
I was taking this B.S. Class and we were supposed to read some book and write this 7 pg report about it.
Well, I waited the night before it was due to write it, when I realized that the book that I had been reading for the past month was the wrong book! (I guess this goes without saying, but I never went to lecture or section because it was optional)
I freaked out and drove to Barnes and Noble at 5pm to grab the book I was supposed to read. I ate and talked at SRB (my second year btw) and it was 7pm!
I turned on my computer and started skimming the chapters (I had NO idea what this book was about and I couldn't find much help on the internet) and I kept freaking out.
10pm. I decided to start writing what I could (this paper was due at 10am the next morning) and I decided to take one of my imfamous "5 minute naps" with my alarm on.
I woke up.
8 hours later.
it was 6am! I had finished skimming about three chapters, and I only wrote about half a page!
AHH!!!!!!!!!!
4 hours!
The clock was ticking
8:45 am
I have less than 2 hours left and I'm only on the 3rd page!
9: 45 am!
The paper is miraculously finished. 7 pages to the last line!
I go to print it and my printer is out of ink! I remember that I had INK on my things to get list the very day before but i forgot!
dumb dumb!
ahh!
I wake up a fellow brother ask for help. His printer is out of ink too! I ask the last brother in the house and we manage to print it out!
HORRAY!!!!!!
I print it out and my stapler is out of staples! I'm getting tired of this.
I refill the staples and staple the essay.
I have my car keys in my pocket the entire time and drive to the UV
There is no parking!
I go to the last floor and park and run to the Theatre!
I turn it in!
----------
The next week, I see online that I got 10/10 on the essay.
I'm intrigued.
I go to section and I remember that the professor told us at the beginning of the quarter that we get full points for just doing the term paper.
HAHA I will NEVER do that again!
