Been unsuccessful with keeping up this blog, but I think I'll start writing more now. *fingers crossed*
Anyways, I ended last quarter like this:
Asci 221 (Meat Science) - B+
Stats 218 (Statistics for Life Sciences) - B
Chem 127 (Gen. Chem. I) - C
Philosophy 230 - C
Not the greatest, but I was really relieved I even passed the fist in the Chem series. I got D's on every midterm, then scraped a C out on the final. I know it's really bad; and I'm not doing much better this quarter with the second in the series. I already failed the first midterm miserably; worse than I've ever done on a test in college so far (except maybe Econ, but let's pretend that class never happened). But when we took the midterm, literally no one had finished it before our time was up. My professor curved it a little bit, and is giving us the opportunity to gain some extra points, but it's not going to help much (even with the curve I still failed).
I've been thinking lately, trying to be realistic, that I don't think I'll make it to vet school. My grades are not good, and I don't think I'll be able to get them up high enough to be competitive (still sitting on a 2.53 GPA). I'm going to talk to my advisor sometime this week, and despite being doubtful of my ability I will keep taking the pre-vet concentration classes (and hopefully I don't fail everything and get kicked out of school).
Besides that though, I'm not sure what other options I have. I don't know what I could pursue that might make me happy. I've been planning to do a minor in Biotechnology, but I'm not sure what I can even do with that, it just seemed really interesting.
Besides my floundering around in life, my roommates are good (I think I talked about this already?), but I realized I have to start looking for a place to live next year and have no clue at the moment. Not being very close with people here also doesn't make it any easier for me. I feel like everyone has plans already, and I don't want to randomly ask people and be the awkward person with no one to live with that everyone will feel bad for. But anyways... these are the classes I'm taking this quarter:
Asci 225 (Intro to Poultry Management)
Chem 128 (Gen. Chem II)
Bio 303 (Survey of Genetics)
Also, the foaling enterprise (which has been very uneventful so far) which I'm hoping will pick up speed soon when the mare's start foaling out. One of them is actually supposed to be due today (the 7th), so we'll see if I get a call in the middle of the night over the next few days.
