This week was pretty crap to be honest. I took several exams and quizzes and for one exam I got 77.5. I studied the book but my weakness was in the presentation and videos we watched. I have noted that but I will try harder at looking into that. Ive already gotten started on my final project for that class and from the looks of it I may end up with a good mark especially because the person Im interviewing is my sister. The project is to basically find a job or industry I am interested in and learn about things that would make this job appealing. The job I choose was Computer Information Systems Management. Moving on in my second quiz for my derivatives class I got 11 out of 20 right. I probably wouldve done better if I didnt have problems prior and during the quiz. Prior to the quiz I was training for my VITA certification which was long and enduring and eventually passed the exam. It too so long to pass that I didnt have enough time to study for this quiz. In the end of that certification test I had a huge headache from looking at the computer screen all day. It carried over into the night and during the quiz I had a nosebleed. This has happened before to me but I kept my composure and slowed down in taking the quiz. Time ran out and I had a ton of questions left unanswered and guessed the remainder. After I received my exam back from economics which I got an 84. I was okay with it but still upset it wasnt a 90. I did get extra credit for correcting my answers and when my professor looked at my exam she said that the Teaching Assistant took off way too many points for a math error that was upside down so shes considering changing the peanalized points taken out.

Im happy for my biting the bullet attitude. I hate to quit especially on life and doing so turned everything around. Unfortunately because of that bad beginning week I have a lot of work to do to maintain a good standing in school. My volunteer income tax went great and I gained some experience. This volunteer work will go towards my school requirements as well as my fraternity requirements. In the end it all adds up and I want to get this done ASAP.

One thing that drew my attention is Elle-The-Cat's journal entry which I cant complain will bring me great utility. She is offering free sketches to the first 10 people who reply to her as well as other criteria posted on her journal entry. They say the best things in life are free and I have to agree especially with my budget constraints after receiving bills from the university which need to be paid by the end of the month. In addition, I like the axiom in economics that more is preferred to than less. Im not fiending looking for free offers all the time but this will put me into brighter spirits especially from this week. Here is her journal entry:

I typically prefer clothes and with fur for obvious reasons. Im not picky when it comes to poses or anything plus I like surprises of what anything looks like based on different people's drawing styles. These are the reference pictures.
