Feeling Better

A couple things have happened today/last night and they just made everything that was bothering me go away. =-D
I woke up this morning dreading going to my sociology class because I knew that we were getting our test grades from last friday back. Dr. Simmonds had predicted the average score would be about a 12 out of 25 and it turned out to be about 12.5 (rounded to 13). The highest score in the class was 20. I got a 16 (a B) so I'm happy with that. I didn't study as much as I should have..but it turned out ok. He wasn't in class on Monday, so the TA showed us a video on the Tuskegee Syphilis Project, which, in short, is when the US government took advantage of about 400 poor, uneducated, black men with syphilis for 40 years. We had a pop quiz on it today, and I guess I'm getting really good at guessing because I aced it, and getting a perfect score on anything in that class makes me unbelievably happy.
I also found out that I'm going home in a few weeks. Mom and Dad are paying for a train ticket so I can come home for Columbus Day weekend. She was going to surprise me and just send the tickets in the mail, but she thought Mary and I had it all planned out already so she told me lol.
Char and I decided to go to RIT to visit her friends there this weekend. We're getting picked up on friday afternoon after we're done with classes and I'm not sure when we're getting back, probably sunday night. Getting away from campus for a while is really going to be nice. I'm so used to being able to just get up and go somewhere at home that it kills me to stay in the same place all the time.
I've been messing around with more pictures and making collages and things, which my friends seem to like. I might start charging for them lol. I just get bored sometimes, or I'll be talking to someone and since there's nothing better to do I put them together (sometimes I'm just avoiding homework). In the past few days I've made one for Noelle, Kristin, Char, and Nikki (the other one). I've decided that I really need to get Photoshop so I have more options and the image quality is better.
I guess that's it for now. Update later.
