coyotesuspectI made the Dean's List! :D
Of course, getting the letter this morning meant my parents wanted to see my grades, so, I, uh finally looked up my grades from last quarter! And I'm kind of shocked, guys. I should not have done that well during a quarter where I spent an entire month depressed, broke down on one of my professors, and turned in a paper three weeks late. (None of these things having to do with school-related stress, just a general feeling of omg why is everything in the world awful, particularly me? ;_; )
(And now my parents are proud of me. OMGYAY EXTERNAL VALIDATION FROM FIGURES OF AUTHORITY.)

Still. There is room for improvement. This was a lazy year. So! Next year:
1) Get even better grades
2) Get involved in more student activities
3) Get a job
4) Learn how to operate without sleep.

Date: 2010-07-19 09:42 pm (UTC)Also, this? EXTERNAL VALIDATION FROM FIGURES OF AUTHORITY?
NOW YOU'RE TALKING THE POST-SECONDARY TALK. A+ (I'd hate to be the one to ruin your Dean's List-qualifying average.)

LOLWUT Duke University? Is my Coyote. You cannot has.

Date: 2010-07-19 10:23 pm (UTC):* *cuddles back* It's all better now though!
Yeah, it has to do with their Talent Identification Program I participated in when I was a 7th grader. (i.e., they made bb!coyote take the SAT), and since I did well on it, now they want my DNA since they're searching for genetic markers of high cognitive ability. Or something like that.
MAYBE THEY JUST WANT TO CLONE ME.

Date: 2010-07-19 10:17 pm (UTC)(Yeah! No one really knew, except for my hum professor who I broke down on. But at one point I didn't even leave my room for two days except to go to dinner. /o\ Though I told a couple people afterwards and, idk. I guess I'll talk to people if it happens again. BUT I'M BETTER NOW YAY!)

Date: 2010-07-19 10:29 pm (UTC)(I might take you up on that offer! But it wasn't school- I was enjoying my classes except for my dislike of my sosc professor and hatred of everyone in my human rights class. I was just SAD all the time. Also, are you still taking the Sacred and the Secular, etc, etc? Because I think I am.)

Date: 2010-07-19 10:46 pm (UTC)YES. The authors list is so exciting. And, if I decide to be a religious major, it will count towards that.
