Tenacious_Peaches Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 I just took my last exam in Statistics. My final grade for the class is a C. I told myself sometime last month that I didn't care what kind of a grade I got, as long as I passed the mother loving class. Guess what? I do care. I am an A student, damn it, and I have been sitting here blubbering like a little girl because I got a C. I've always thought that if you study hard and do your best, you'll get good grades. I guess that theory rose up and smacked me in my smug mouth, didn't it? Statistics can kiss my mother loving behind. Furthermore, my gears are ground into a fine powder because it's Sunday, so I can't even go to the liquor store and purchase myself a bottle of happy juice. Mother loving bible belt and its arbitrary laws about buying liquor on Sundays. Jesus did turn water into wine, didn't he? So why can't I celebrate His miracle and drink some of it? Criminy.

Levis Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 Don't fret over a stats paper, Peachness. I've had my share of sucky maths/stats papers. usually no one's fault but my own. It's not brought about by not knowing the theories and formulae... it's usually just a silly mistake or three that makes you go . You just bang your head against the wall a couple of times and swear that next time you'll revise and calculate everything twice before handing in the paper. I tell you... as long as you know you did your best, you've got nothing to feel bad about. You just learn from where you went wrong. I think it's much better to study and get a C, than not study and get a D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 If a C had been the result of me studying (and for days on end) I would've thought my teacher or whoever had been drunk and overlooked half my mistakes... in my eyes, a C in maths or statistics is something to be really proud of. Then again, I'm awful at that kind of stuff. I suppose it's different if you're used to As. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 Thanks, Radhi and Fintan. I feel better now that I've ranted and cried about it. I'm way too much of a perfectionist not to get good grades, but I'll live, I suppose. Who needs to get betrunken when I've got my lovely Songfacts family to cheer me up?

TheLizard Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 Statistics is a bs class anyway. Anyone can make up stats. And even if stats aren't made up, anyone can make them say anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted December 2, 2007 Report Share Posted December 2, 2007 True, Tim, which makes it suck that much harder that I didn't do any better. I'm the queen of bs. Marc, we aren't as bad off in south Georgia as far as the drought goes, although I still recommend wine over water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
