XD<\/p>\n<p>Today just seemed like an endless string of failures.<\/p>\n<p>So I walk out the door this morning and the bus is 15 minutes late. Oh, and it&#8217;s raining.<\/p>\n<p>I mean, I start with Bio&#8230; which only reminded me of the midterm, which I don&#8217;t feel I did particularly well on. Besides, I&#8217;d completely forgotten everything I ever learned about glycolysis and sat there in the class, yawning my face off. That was bad. Oh, did I mention it was raining and that there are HUGE puddles around the Ag Sci building? No?<\/p>\n<p>Okay, off to Chem, which was pretty bleh, but in any case, I remembered that I probably only marginally passed the last pre-reading quiz.<\/p>\n<p>In Physics, the review session never quite materialized, and our prof just gave up and said, &#8220;Enjoy your Thanksgiving.&#8221; Thank you, I think I will. Or I&#8217;ll try, since I have a midterm next Wednesday&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Math. AHHHHHH MATH. \ud83d\ude21 Of course, I had my midterm today. My ultra-horrible midterm. Five questions doesn&#8217;t sound that hard, right&#8230;? In theory, no. In practice? YES. I barely had enough time to finish; mostly this was due to some stupidity on my part (unable to get over a mental block of not differentiating anything with two variables), but&#8230;. ARRRRGHHHHHHHHHH. It was very, very frustrating.<\/p>\n<p>And then I finished off with English, and I am now absolutely convinced that I failed the quiz. Absolutely convinced. :depressed:<\/p>\n<p>After school, I headed downtown to try and find Utada&#8217;s album. I went through three stores. Finally, I discovered that what is probably the largest CD store in the city was <i>sold out<\/i>. &#8220;Oh, everyone&#8217;s asking about Utada!&#8221; I can&#8217;t believe this. The album came out on Tuesday and it&#8217;s already sold out? Granted, they only had 90 copies, but&#8230;. still&#8230;. she can&#8217;t be that popular here, can she? &#8220;I had never heard of her before and then on Tuesday I rang up eight of them in a row.&#8221; Arrrgh. Obviously I hadn&#8217;t counted on what I assume is the relatively high concentration of Japanese people downtown. The good news is, he said I should check back Tuesday, as that&#8217;s when their next shipment comes in; the bad news is, I have my Physics midterm on Wednesday. Maybe I&#8217;ll go next Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Then, when I tried to take public transit home&#8230; I walked down to the station and I saw a huge line of people at the escalator. I assumed this meant the escalator was broken and people were just walking down really slowly. I hate broken escalators, so I headed back outside to catch a bus. My bus never came. It&#8217;s supposed to be on &#8220;frequent service&#8221;&#8211;that is, every ten minutes or less. In fact, at that time of day, it should have been coming every five minutes or so. I waited twenty minutes, and saw several buses that should have been less frequent than mine drive by. Once, I thought I saw my bus, but when it reached the stop the sign had changed. That was weird. I decided instead to head back down to the station and head down that escalator. It turned out that the escalator was working just fine; the reason no one was on it was because there was a <strong>bomb threat<\/strong> at some station down the line. I suppose this had the effect of screwing up my bus&#8217; route. I walked a couple of blocks to another stop where I could take one of three buses.
