Now that I have a moment, I might be able to construct a decent post. I completed my final final examination today. So I am writing just as I promised. Principles of Biology, Bio 251 is the class. Ask me for a CRN and I will promptly tell you where to shove it.
I studied for it, but minimally. That is one of the top Ten things I want to change about me-in-school - my study habits. I know I earned the A- fair and square, but I truly feel like I should have pushed harder and attained one of the top 5 scores in the class. 73 out of 80 is 91%. I could have achieved a seventy-eight or seventy-9. Honestly, I am hoping that with perseverance, guidance and some time I can grasp that top 5 percentile like I really, really want. This trend of taking tests from the hip is a recipe for disaster, though. I am hoping that with time in grade I will gain the foresight and study skills necessary to Ace tests. That takes time though.
With this term closed out I just pretty much get to sit and wait for the final marks to be posted. This, too, can be an exhausting activity. I want to see three triangles when I open my grade envelope (AAA). Keep your fingers crossed on that one. I will be able to finish this book, "Choke", by Chuck Palahniuk. This book has been pretty dreadful. Ahh, but wait, I am trying to focus this paragraph on the productive ways I am going to spend my Winter break.
My memory just stroke up a vision of sitting by a window with a cup of hot coffee in my hands. Michigan does have great winter sights. From the comfort of home, viewing out onto the world is quite beautiful back there. All of the trees are bare sticks and they hold snow aloft until the strength of direct sunlight can melt it off their branches and down into their roots. Then They will produce leaves and begin metabolizing fresh oxygen for the spring, summer and fall months.
That is what Michigan winters remind me of. It is peaceful, but do not neglect to remember the debilitating affects snow can have on commuting. Whew! That's rough!
I am going to be found outdoors very frequently this Winter. Hiking, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and jogging. Being active is essential to not gettin lost in the doldrums of mid-winter complacency. Perhaps I will commence building a chicken coop for live chickens, or my garden coffins. I am really excited to take the weight off major, commercial agriculture to provide ME with essential life-sustaining nutrients. I should be able to do that for myself. Shouldn't I?
