Near the End: Round-Up 1

Since my last post there have been quite a few and remarkable changes to happen. These have ranged from poor to exciting. All in all, the end of the semester proved to be quite a challenge and it was attacked head on.

School ended in a fashion that made it seem quite interesting. In Organic Chemistry it seemed like the professor hiked the difficulty up to an unreachable level. Thanks to his altered grading scale though, I must admit that it did make it a bit more bearable. I just do not know anymore. I think that me and chemistry just do not get along. I can do the laboratory assignments and mixing chemicals well; its funny really, I can even ignore the exact instructions and just guesstimate in my pouring of chemicals and still get, if not more, the same results. Who knows, I am not majoring in Chemistry so it really does not matter. I wanted to get a Chemistry Minor but this is becoming a bit more difficult then my own Bioinformatics degree.

Bioinformatics is another class that seemed to throw all its knives at me in one swipe. The work became quite intense with the Final Test 3 and a project, both of which seemed to overlap. Immediately once the test was completed, the project was due. I somehow managed to find a way to study for the Organic Chemistry tests and to do the test and project at the same time. By the time I was done with it, I was nearly about to faint. Needless to say I survived well.

This semester seemed to be more of a challenge of staying determined, keeping a high level of self-esteem, an attack against self-doubt, and the value of hard work and perseverance. Needless to say, I do believe that it will all work out for the better.

There will probably be two more of these created to highlight several things that have happened in the preceding days, which in this case would be the time period of the end of April.

Later days and talk soon.
