Think Happy Thoughts...

That's my little mantra today. "Think happy thoughts. Think happy thoughts."

We get our Microeconomics exam back today, and I'm anticipating a better grade on this one than I got on the first one. ...I hope. I've been getting back tests all week this week, and surprised by all of them. In Math, I found I was one of the "four or five" who passed the last test, making an 81/100 -- a B-minus. I was unhappy, but once again, I was victim of stupid mistakes. Grah! That's irritating. In Geology, my last quiz grade was a 94/100 and my midterm a 92/100, both of which are As. (But we haven't added the 12 bonus points to the midterms yet, so I actually made a 104/100.)

My little Public Speaking group project is coming along well... I think. Everybody's sending me their notes so that I can type 'em, edit 'em, and send them to our speech drafter. She tells me I won't get the draft until sometime Saturday, which doesn't bother me at all. I'm also not a very mean leader, I've learned. One of the girls in my group sent me an email apologizing for not sending any notes... that she was having a very ugly day and didn't get around to it. I sent her a message back telling her to be calm, that there was still plenty of time, and that I could always find something for her to do so she could get the review points. (I then told her to have a better day today, or I'd go hunt her down and make her laugh.)

But anyway.

I realized this morning I'm running low on a bunch of things, and the needle on my car that shows my gas is lingering in the warning zone. Wincing, I decided to check out my checking account to see how much I could afford to buy after I get out of class this morning. I knew my account was low, and was pretty certain I'd have nothing to spare.

I like looking at my checking account and finding more than I anticipated. I have more than enough to buy my things and refuel my car, which makes me a slightly happier Dani. Hell, I may even buy myself lunch today, as I've not eaten great this week and I think I deserve it. But we'll see.

For now, I'm gonna go get stuff ready for school...

And yeah.
