I woke up freaking the fuck out
So I stayed up until 2:30 in the morning, playing Lego Harry Potter (years 1-4). (side note: I once played that game then went to sleep and had a dream in which everything was made of legos and everything kept exploding to reveal coins. Don’t judge)
So anyway, I woke up at about 10:30, in a panic. For some reason, I am still shaking. I don’t even know what my dream was and why I’m so freaked out. It’s a horrible feeling. I just want it to pass so I can start reading what I need to for class.
By the way, speaking of school work, I had a psych exam last night. I didn’t start studying for it until last night, which was a big mistake, because I realized I should have started studying days ago. Anyway. I took the test and after everyone was finished we went over it in class to see how we did. I got 46/50 correct. However, the test is apparently worth 80 points, so I don’t even know how to figure it out. He also grades on a curve. So. He said that the 40′s will most likely be an A. The mid to upper 30′s a B, and so on. So I’m pretty sure I got an A for the first psych exam even though I started studying too late. Next time I’m definitely starting early to avoid the multiple panic attacks I had over it. WITH note cards. Damnit.
3 out of the 4 I got wrong I was questioning if they were right as I was taking it. Anyway, last week I took a quiz in human origins (he doesn’t give exams, only 15 question quizzes, thank god. And, no final cumulative exam), and I got 14/15 correct. I’m sure the one I got wrong was the one I sat and stared at and questioned myself about. I’ll find out tomorrow if that’s true or not.
Anyway, still trying to feel better after waking up to a panic attack…..

awesome grades!
and ugh, waking up with a panic attack is terrible! I hope you can convince yourself that it was just a dream and everything is okay!! I think it could be some stress for waiting until the last minute for that test could have carried over… I know that’s happened to me before even after the test was done!
I ALREADY KNEW THE PSYCH TEST WAS GONNA END WELL CAUSE I READ YOUR FACEBOOK STATUS.
yay me
@raspberryjade - Thanks..it’s finally starting to feel better.
@ShimmerBodyCream - LMAO
Is there a course in human origins? I’ve been reading “The Time-Life Book of Evolution” (which isn’t as cheesy as it sounds) and the subject is fascinating.
I see the kids in our neighborhood playground swing hand-over-hand and last night I just read that it’s called “brachiation”, which distinguishes the primates and helped develop our front legs into arms.
@dingus6 - Yeah, there is at my college. It’s actually an anthropology class. It’s quite fascinating. Chimps have 98% of the same genomes that us humans do, our closest living relative. If you’re interested, the books we are reading are Biological Anthropology by Michael Alan Park and Guns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond. (Of course, they are text books so they’re expensive!!)
congrats!
Psychology is a timeline. Note card will help you “learn the material” but if you make a timeline from class to class you will see how interesting and how everything has evolved from shrink to shrink and school of learning (ie behaviorism) to school of learning.
*** I have a B.S. in Psychology and LOVE it! Also, don’t let people tell you you can’t get a job with a psychology degree. I am breathing proof that is bull!***
Now ask me how I ended up getting a MPA!!! KILL ME NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad you did well on the exam…sorry to hearyour sleep was so dramatically cut off though…hang in there friend
