So I'm on my school's webpage ready to check my grades and see how I did on my finals. All of my teachers told us this past week that they most likely wouldn't be available until the weekend. I'm on my page and it's completely wiped blank. None of my courses are on there, none of my grades, nothing. :confused:

The school cleared it already to be prepared for next semester? What? :idontknow:

Perhaps it's a glitch, but if nothing returns, best to talk to someone about that!

^ Yeah I'm going to try again tomorrow morning. If I still end up with nothing though, I'm going to have to e-mail every single one of my instructors for my final grades and overall course grades. What a pain.

I kinda stopped taking my medication. Haven't taken it for about three days now. I stopped because 1) I want to see if I feel more awake (so far I haven't), and 2) I'm curious if my mood swings will come back.

So the wedding I was complaining about went ok I guess. I didn't know anybody, so it was still kinda boring. Bearable though. There was a friendly young couple at my table anyways. It could have been worse.

I have been thinking a lot lately about racism, cultural conditioning and what it means to be a white person and how the most basic characteristics of our being (such as our gender, ethnicity) dictates our expectations of ourselves and of others. I have also been thinking quite a bit about social norms and what makes the standards that we take for granted 'right' - who decides?

I am also wondering how lack of confidence and shyness makes *other* people react to the person who exhibits shy behaviour - the message it sends, and whether or not that message is being interpreted correctly.

I wish I didn't get embarrassed on behalf of others, even when they're clearly not embarrassed.... My husband's grandmother visited for a short while today, and he was showing her some songs we like on the computer... She was singing along (we showed her lyric videos) and dancing, obviously enjoying it and not in the least bit embarrassed... I enjoyed watching her being happy, but at the same time felt extraordinarily embarrassed... I think because I am naturally empathetic, I easily slip into another's place, except I imagine my own feelings as well... The idea of singing and dancing in front of anyone is just horror, the embarrassment I would feel would be off the scale.

I still never managed to get my final exam grades this morning. However, I did manage to dig through my student records and found my overall final course grades, except Biochemistry isn't even listed on them. At least the rest are still there.

I got a C+ in History, which I'm pretty surprised about. I've never gotten a grade that low in any history course I've taken. I love history and have always been pretty good with it, so I'm not exactly happy with myself. Then again, it was all completely online, and I've never taken a history course online before. Plus the online submission during the first week of school was screwed up, leaving me with 50 points lost that I couldn't make up. Eh, oh well. At least I passed and earned my credits, that's all that counts.

Overall, even without Biochemistry included, I did pretty well this semester. Still ended up with a 3.4 GPA. I'm happy. :) Hopefully my Biochemistry will just raise it.

^ Congrats, well done!

...

Hm me on the other hand... Well, let's just say I screwed up so bad I may be demoted to a lower level of education. My grades were exceptionally poor this semester. To be continued...

I saw a petition regarding the Westboro Baptist Church to have it officially identified as a hate group. It needed 25.000 signatures before a date in 2013, it currently has 90.000.. it's been up for about a week.

I'm not sure what such a label would do exactly, but I can only imagine it'll restrict their endeavours to large extend. Which I'll be quite glad with.

Ironically, this will probably give that excuse of a group more exposure. :eek:mg:

It is clearly a hate group, though, and I hope it gets disbanded (although they'll probably still exist in some form).
