Sensation and Perception

Today's Psychology test is over Sensation and Perception. I should probably be studying right now since the test is in an hour and a half, but I can't make myself do it. Blahhh. I haven't studied, so I know I'm going to do bad. I'm really put off with that class because I studied for our 2 tests before this like...SUPER much. Hours and hours and hours of studying...and I made an 86 and then a SEVENTY SEVEN. I was pissed..to say the least. Anyways, I really think I'm studying the wrong things, so is there really a point? Should I just try to wing it? It's just real life examples anyway. I never know what example she's going to give us. I can't come up with a problem and name every problem with it. Ugh. I've decided...I hate psychology. Like I said in my last post, stroll practice is my favorite part of the week, and I am going to stick with that. Too bad I don't get a grade in it...

I'm hoping I don't have to go home next semester & go to school there. I shouldn't have to, but I don't know if I'll have a place to live here...

I've been marinating chicken for two days in the fridge, and I cooked in last night. It was SO GOOD. I usually don't cook meat in a skillet, but I did last night. Yum - f'real. I cooked black eyed peas too - yummyyyy. Jordan and Kaleb don't eat them I don't think...so I had to waste like over half a can. :(

I got two new fish. Their names are Duck and Canada. They're plain black, and super cute. :) They're the only kind of pets I can have...so I'm going to enjoy my new fish. My other two died...sad day. I wonder if the new fish can tell that there were other fish living in there once...What if they get depressed or something? Can that happen since they have a memory of like 30 seconds? Doesn't that just mean they are dumb? I'm gonna go with that. :)

I guess I will go study now. Or eat...I haven't eaten today. Who knows? I'll probably be back to write more later though... :)

***13 hours later...I couldn't study. I was so bored. I did for like an hour, and then I stopped. I probably failed that test, and I will cry if I did. Seriously...in public. I will ball my eyes out.
Anyways, after the test, I went with my soror Tori to Walmart, the dollar store, and Target to get our other sister's birthday presents. She's turning 19 tomorrow! (well...today since its 3:15 am!) Anyways, we got her some cool stuff. I can't put it on here right now in case she reads it though, so I will post pictures tomorrow :)

Stress in a Coffee Cup

I have three tests this week. I have been staring at my computer screen for 2 hours now typing up flashcards for only two of them!

I haven't had coffee in over a month, and within 2 hours, I've already consumed two tall white chocolate mochas from Starbucks.  When they say college is hard - THEY MEAN IT. :)

So, if you're not in college...take their word. If you are, you can relate. :P

Tips for studying:
1. WEAR PAJAMAS. No one cares what you look like. I'm glad I changed before I got to the library...which brings me to numero dos:
2. ALWAYS STUDY IN THE LIBRARY. If you use your computer to study, it will distract you enough. You don't need to be in your room sitting on your bed where you're likely to fall asleep, watch tv, talk on the phone, read a magazine, or whatever else.
3. STUDY WITH A FRIEND. Of course make it a friend you know you'll actually study with, but make sure that you have someone with you that will make you study. Ask them if you can have a mutual agreement: "Ask me if I'm studying every ___ minutes, and I'll ask you the same thing every other ____ minutes." IT WORKS. :)
4. I don't know what else. But make sure you study. It helps. hahaha. I need sleep. :P

5. EAT PIZZA AT MIDNIGHT.
