Straight Bs.

So I checked all my grades and as of right now, I basically have straight Bs and an A in AP Bio. I also have As in Research Practicum/Internship but that almost doesn't count.

Ugh. My parents are gonna see it and ask questions that I can't answer. Luckily, all my homework was on point so they can't say "I wasn't doing homework". My grades are all low because of my test grades.

In Stat, I got two Cs on tests in the beginning of the quarter, which was when I was studying for SATs. I got like two As and the rest were Bs. It was just cruddy for me. I don't mind getting a B in Stat. It just sucks that I'm getting a B in everything else: AP Lit and Organic Chem. I have a little bit of hope for AP Lit since my teacher just put in ONE test which I got an 80 on. So it plummeted my grade from a 97 to an 84...

Uh...

And in Organic Chem, I just have a bunch of missing work and my test grades were spectacular and I have an 82 in that class. It's actually sad.

On the good side of things, I successfully ran my first participant today. As I think I've mentioned before, she had the same name as me. She was very cute and very cooperative. She was the perfect first participant. And her mother was really sweet as well.

I was actually freaking out at first because I ended up getting to my internship kinda late. It was 12:18 pm by the time I stepped foot into the building. I hadn't practiced making a certificate, I hadn't set up the study, and I was sweaty and hyperventilating. But things worked out.

The only issues I had were making a certificate but there was actually NO other problem aside from that. I also realized that I should probably bring a crossword puzzle to do while I'm waiting for the kids to finish. I have to be in the room while they're doing the "game". While my first participant was doing her thing, I was playing MASH with myself and got such a pitiful life...

I was going to live in an apartment, make $100,000 a year, not die a virgin, have two kids, drive a sports car, and get married to... Frankie Munez. -_- So basically, my life would've been pretty swell if I wasn't married to Frankie Munez but he's not that bad. I mean, I'm sure he has the money racked up from being a child star and everything. And he's not super unattractive but not Johnny Depp or The Guy attractive.

Speaking of The Guy, I made eye contact with him today. Like, for sure eye contact. I was signing out to leave for my internship and I saw a figure appear in my peripheral vision and although he wasn't directly behind me, I think I have his stature memorized and ingrained in my brain because I immediately recognized that it could be him. So I looked up and there he was. EYES CONTACTED. I looked away, and proceeded to talk to my friend. And that was that.


Awkward.

So tomorrow, I'm running my second participant and things are good. I wasted the last few minutes of my internship doing nothing after running my participant and I kinda feel bad about that. I should start calling for other people now since I feel more comfortable with calling and scheduling now and I don't really have much to do anymore except run participants, schedule for my own study, and put data into the computer. That whole ordeal doesn't take anymore than an hour and a half and I'm supposed to stay for two hours and 45 minutes.

I really wanna be on good behavior for a few weeks. I'm going to stay for enough hours and do a lot of things for the lab. Then, once I get on really good terms with everyone in the lab, I'll take a few hours off when I feel like it. I'll probably do this until after science fair.

As usual, I'm procrastinating. I have a Stat test tomorrow and although I don't believe it'll be that hard, I do need to review. But I'll most likely end up doing it all on the bus ride to school It's the perfect time to study actually.

I'm also supposed to be working on my greeting card. It's REALLY in the rough and I don't even know how it's gonna turn out but hopefully it turns out great. And if push comes to shove, I'll just use one of my prior works and make it into a greeting card if I have to.

SOO yeah. Here's what I ate today. It wasn't super great. But it wasn't bad either.

Breakfast:
- Smoothie (Some pineapple, strawberry, peach, and melon medley w/ blueberry yogurt) (250)

Lunch:
- Peanut butter and jelly sandwich (350)
- String cheese (60)

Snack:
- Honey Bunches of Oats w/ 2% milk (400)

Dinner:
- Peppermint tea w/ lemon (60)
- Costco pizza (700) wtf.

Snack:
- Strawberries and pineapple (100)

Total: 1920 calories

That was WAY more than I expected. I walked less than a mile today as I was coming home so I'm sure I burned no more than 50 calories. UGHHH. What the heck was wrong with that Costco pizza?! I only ate one slice too!!!!!

That sucks. That was way over my limit but at the same time, it's probably less than I usually eat in a day. So I'm gonna think of that aspect of it. Friday is going to be a slight cheat day for me because I'm planning on using a Burger King coupon to by myself a chicken sandwich. But I wanted to do really well throughout the week to warrant myself a cheat day.

So tomorrow will definitely be in the 1400 range or less (which will be even better).
