no more jury duty… albeit, not for the reasons I expected. The commissioner called this morning to tell me she couldn’t disqualify me… I’d have to show up and leave that to the lawyers. I realized, though, that the day I needed to report was during spring break. So I asked to be rescheduled… she said it was no problem and I would be rescheduled for mid-september… when I told her I was leaving the state in early May, she decided I wasn’t worth the trouble, and so… I won’t be doing jury duty anytime soon.

oh yeah… remember that test I was so worried about and knew I was going to fail? I studied and studied and studied… I spent 6 hours in the prof’s office asking for help. I stayed up til 1:30am studying and then laid in bed until after 3 worrying about it. I started waking up at 7:15, every 10 minutes thinking I was late or had slept through the class. I finally woke up, went to class early. Got to class 10 minutes early and the prof was already there waiting to hand out the exam… I knew I was screwed… if we needed the extra time, I didn’t have a chance… 20 minutes later, I had finished the test. Assuming I had done something wrong, I spent the next 40 minutes going back over everything. Sure ‘nuf, I was done. Just got the test back… 100. I aced it.

I liked the prof’s explination of why the test was so easy, “In a couple of years, this test would have been impossible”. It was questions off of comp. tests, where it would have been a few semesters since we had seen it. However, right now, when the stuff was fresh in our mind and the equations were written on a sheet of paper beside us, it was really dad gum easy.

all that worrying for nothing… or for very little… can’t say it was for nothing. I at least understand a little better now.

I guess since I am in class I should stop typing and pay attention.
