It's easier to believe the bad stuff

This is just perfect. I studied my ass off for a test and I still failed it. I felt ok about it too. Just 10 points higher than the other 2 I took. My self-esteem just went down by 20 points. I need a new plan of action. I think I better read the chapters so that the teachers who give out study guides, I know where to find the material needed on the study guide. I also think I should study my notes more than I have been. Just looking at them a few minutes before the test just isn't enough anymore. OK so new plan: read the chapters before class and make note of what's important; study notes; record the first class of the day and just type word-for-word what was said and study that as well; study at work much longer than 5-10 minutes of "break-time". It goes along with the phrase: location, location, location. Yeah: study, study, study. Oh and another fun note: turns out my iPod did NOT sync correctly and kept all the old music and I have none of my new music on there. Before iTunes would wipe out the songs you had on the iPod from a different computer and replace it with the songs on the current computer....I guess they changed that now. Oh well. I'll figure something out. I've got a few extra points to work on for Finance, and 3 projects to work on. So maybe the assignments will keep me alive. But I want all A's this semester...yeah failing the first tests are not how I wanted to start the semester off.
