Finals, GRE Scores, Packing, and Birthdays

Well, today had a lot of things going on. I woke up EXTRA early today for a 7:30am final. Which, by the way, I totally BOMBED!!! Yeah, 40% is optimistic right now, but from what I heard, a lot of people had issues, so the curve might be really good. Plus, I have my other tests and homework to raise the grade a bit...

I also called the GRE service to get my scores, because apparently 4-6 weeks to mail my score means 6 weeks... right... just because it's the end of the range, doesn't mean you should sent it at the very last minute. Anyway, I had to pay $12 to get my score via phone so I could put it on the U. of Texas application. 740!!! That's awesome!! I did not expect to get such a high score. I was thinking somewhere around a 600 or so.

Well, I was feeling pretty good then, so I played Fallout 3 for a while... until I realised I still hadn't packed... oops. I'm leaving Sunday to go home for Christmas, but I'm leaving my room tomorrow (residence kicks us out), so I'm staying at Kristin's for a bit.

The reason for this late going home is due to.... *drum roll* my 21st Birthday!!! I'm getting a bunch of people and we're going out to the bars. I'm actually kind of nervous. I want to drink, but not get drunk... so I'll have to be careful how much I drink... I think I'll set Kristin as my guardian.

Well, I have to continue packing... More posts over break, maybe. If not, next semester definately. I don't know how much time I'll actually be at my computer over break. I know I won't be much for tthe first 2 day, and not much for the 2 after that (Christmas Eve and Christmas day). So, if I don't post again...

Merry Christmas(Christian and Orthodox), Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanza, Season's Grettings (for the athiests and agnostics), Happy Occidental New Year, Happy Three Kings Day, and any other Holidays that happen to occur around this time of year. And Happy Chinese New Year if I don't write until February or March.

Eddie, the Golden Phoenix

P.S. If I got something wrong on the holidays, I'm truly sorry. I do not mean to offend anyone.
