You know that Math midterm (CSE 260) I thought I had done poorly on? The one where I had no problem with the review questions, but when I got into the test, I felt I had to question if I was given the exam for the right class? It turns out "poorly" was an understatement. Big time.

Today's our last day to drop classes, and I'm thinking of dropping this class and trying again another semester, to start again with a clean slate. Sure, they let us drop our lowest grade out of the 2 midterms and the 2-part final, but that would mean I had no leeway for the other 3 exams. And if I was so completely thrown off by this first one, that's not really a chance I want to take. Amy, my advisor, tells me I probably shouldn't drop, as it would mean taking CSE 320 2nd semester senior year, which she tells me is not cool, and she's now looking into how the other DMD students fared on the exam, as we traditionally do worse than the straight Computer Sciene kids, because we're more artistically minded and we don't really want to be taking the course anyway. Still, I'm not sure if that excuses the fact that I actually failed, even with the curve taken into account.

On the plus side, Aaron has volunteered to tutor me if I decide to stay in the class, which is always good. I wasn't called for rehearsal Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday, so when we saw each other at rehearsal last night, he said "If I said I missed you, would that be too forward of me?" *squeaks* He is so old fashioned and adoreable! I shared this with the roomies, all three of which are currently having boy issues, and we all basked in the reassurance that not all boys are scum. Of course, that didn't stop us from having a loud festival of misandry (finally, I have discovered the word for the opposite of misogynism!) on my roommates' behalf at Ben & Jerry's, involving mass amounts of chocolate, broken popsicle sticks symbolizing the boys' necks, and cries for painful vengance. No one messes with my roommates!

So anyway, still waffling over what do do about Math. Grr, the choices a woman must make in this earthly realm... I'm going to talk to Amy again.
