Re: (Today)Loaded

Well, my second final is behind me...unfortunately, I am not quite as confident about the results of my Psychology exam as I was about the Geo Lab test. I hadda make at least a 75-80 in order to keep my C, which I need at least a C in order for it to count towards my major in Psychology. It'll be ok, though. I spoke to my State Farm guy, and he said that two of the three strikes against me will go off my record by September, when my insurance is due again. That was good news. I met a true genius today...he said that he had to use John Nash's Game Theory in one of his classes, and it took up four chalkboards in order to get it all down. I tested my IQ once, and I am around 134 or so, which is smarter than the average bear(and lawyer too, they average 127), but I'm telling you that this kid probably had an IQ of 160 or so. That is low-level genius. Anyway, I gotta run, but feel free to post something here. Later...

The test that never was

I woke up this morning at 5:15 and thought about many things in the fifteen minutes I had left until I needed to get up. The first thing that popped into my head was that I was glad to be given another day, but that quickly turned to horror as I started going over my calender in my head. I said to myself..."today is the 28th, and I have a test on Monday, Tuesday, wait, I have my last regular Math test on the 28th. What did I just say???I have a test TODAY? IN MATH? Oh, well..." then I didn't feel so happy to be here. It went ok though, because the test mainly revovled around using our graphing calculators, so I think things went well when they could have gone very sour. Speaking of which, does anybody out there need a TI-80 graphing calculator? I'm willing to sell it for 25 or 30 bucks because I hadda go out and buy a new TI-83 in order to do Linear Regression problems. Anyway, I gotta turn in because I gotta go talk insurance tomorrow with State Farm and I have my Psychology final at 3 tomorrow afternoon, so please keep me in your thoughts. Hope you all are well, and I hope to hear back from you all soon.:)

Until next time, I remain...

Looking Up

Guys, it looks as though things may be taking a turn for the better. I studied for my Geology Lab exam, and came out of it with an 88, which means I should come out of there with a B easily, seeing how the only other exam I had was a 86 and I aced all the weekly quizzes in there. I hope everyone else's day went equally well. I am now reinstated as a official driver after renewing my lisence today, sdo now all I have to do is speak with my State Farm agent to get my insurance situation cleared up on Thursday. That, and my Psychology final are the only worries left this week, so pray for me that those go well, and you know what? It feels good to have my week start turning around...hopefully everyone else will have a good week. Later

Love to ya all,

Heath

Tired

Hullo everyone. I have had quite the uneventful weekend, because I was unable to meet up with Sam, study for my final on Friday OR my Psych final on Thursday. I gotta buckle down huh? It'll be ok...the test on Tuesday is a Geology Lab exam, so I'm not overly concerned. I am concerned about the Psych test, but I'm sure everything will work out. I bought an old Nintendo game, Bad Dudes, last night, and have been playing the heck outta it the last two days. I can't get past the fourth screen, but gimme time an I will. Anyway, tonight will be a short post, but tomorrow's post will be "great tasting, less filler" material. Good night to all, and best of luck to Sam and anyone else who has finals this and next week. G'night.

Thinking Back

You know, I've been thinking a lot about my past. Where I've been, what I've done...that sorta thing. And all throughout my life, I can always remember having, if no one else, one good friend.  A buddy who would hang with me no matter what, and who was always there for me. Someone who would stand up with me and say 'he's right', even if I wasn't sometimes. I'm very grateful for that. Some people go through life wondering if they should end it all today. Our Psychology teacher told us the other day that his brother committed suicide years ago, and looking in his eyes, and hearing the pitch change in his voice, you can tell it was an event that profoundly changed him. I just want to say thank you to all my friends, current and former, for helping me through rough times. Bradley Thompson helped me learn to be a morning person, although he no longer is. Nathan Bien taught me that tall people can be fun too. Brooke Mitchke showed me that I was good for something, because I won her a prize at the Mid-South Fair...even her Daddy couldn't win her anything when she had gone with him to Fairs years earlier. And Samantha...well, there is too much to say about the experiences that we have weathered together. Samantha, thank you for giving me a shoulder to lean on during my Papaw's passing. Thank you for listening to me for hours on end, thank you for telling me to not settle for second when I knew I could acheive first. Thank you all for everything...though I have never considered suicide, it is still good for me to know that I have people around me who care enough about me to love me and be concerned about me. I love you all, and wish you all nothing but the best for the rest of your lives'. Good night...

Love to all,

Heath

The Cafe is rebuilt

I'd like to welcome you back to the Cafe. I have done some remodeling, and I'm ready to start over fresh. The cork board is still over in the corner, so if you come in and I'm out, just post your message on the board and I'll get it. This...feels right. It is certainly good to be back. I look forward to your comments on the new and improved Clerk's Cafe!

P.S. I think all of you should build your own Journals so I can post on them as well.
