A few days ago I was worrying as my last test of the year was approaching. The test would be on psychology second year stats, mostly ANOVAs and other variance tests. I realized that this semester I had not attended any of the stats lectures and hardly paid any attention in the methodology labs. I had wanted to, I promise, but I found every time I went I just remained confused by my teacher's explanations with no hope of understanding until I went back and did the labs on my own.
Today I had this test. Last night I printed out all the slides, in a moment of determination, and sat down to work on them. But, I got distracted and visited friends. Then I went grocery shopping and had a chat with my housemates which left me in my room at 11:40pm with the stack of lecture slides. I looked at them and thought, "Wow, so many slides." I decided sleep would be better than a morning headache. I woke up, had some coffee, and started to study the practice questions (based on a friend's hint and common sense) with only a hour and a half to go.
Forty minutes until the test I walked to the psychology building where I met a friend and read a few More slides. The time came and I sat down. Half the questions on the test matched the practice questions exactly. Hallelujah. Jeremy passed.
As I said. Life can support bad habits. I'm grateful that this once on this day life did it for me.
I went out afterwards to grab some of the Whey Pat's nachos, but discovered four rejections on the way.
1. A dog sitting out side didn't want to be pet and turned its head away.
2. Hamish McHamish walked up to me then quickly ran passed.
3. The Whey Pat was closed and no nachos were two be found.
4. The West Port wasn't serving nachos until 12pm.
Some days you just can't get nachos.
