High and low

[HannahBanana]

Share the high point and the low point of your day.

High: I participated in Hats-On Day on my campus, in honor of my friend Nick, who died 7 years ago, at age 14, from liver cancer.

Low: I've had a nagging headache all day long, and I just can't seem to get rid of it.

Oh oh we're doing this in another forum that I'm on too, hee hee.

High: It's sunny! It's October 22 and it's sunny, this almost never happens in Vancouver, typically it's tsunami-raining by now.

Low: I'm at work. Work is never really a "high point" or a "low point" I suppose, it just has to be done, but I couldn't think of anything else.

High: I wrote my 4 page english paper in less than an hour and everyone loved it!

Low: waking up this morning... hahaha... It's been cold and rainy all day and the wind is just horrible.

 

[RobinRedbreast]

high: I'm managing to remain in mostly-high spirits despite the weather.
low: it's raining. I hate rain. Rain sucks.

 

[Alizera]

High: I've really been in a good mood all day and I'm actually looking forward to exercising today.
Low: I have tests next week that I'm seriously stressing about.

For today:

High ~ Today was my last day of waking up early before the weekend (Mondays and Wednesdays I have to be in class by 9:30 AM, and Tuesdays and Thursdays I have to be in class by 8 AM). On Fridays, I don't have to be in class until 11 AM. I swear, I have never before appreciated the chance to sleep in as much as I'm going to appreciate it tomorrow morning!

Low ~ I made the stupid mistake of eating some chocolate pudding with dinner tonight, and now my heartburn is going crazy, since caffeine is a heartburn trigger. My sinuses feel stuffed-up, my breathing is labored, and I have pain in my upper chest. Oh joy.

 

[Apollo Celestio]

High: I'm ahead of the game in my Islam class, gives me more time to waste.

Low: I was playing with a styrofoam kunai and it landed on the ps2 I was playing effectively freezing a game I was playing DURING THE ENDING SEQUENCE!

 

[Boss_BlueAngels]

High: My students did really well today, dispite a couple of fights at school.

Low: I had to cancel my flight after work today due to maintenance problems.

 

[RobinRedbreast]

high: I just had the terms of my student loans revised, and the papers finally came for me to sign, I'm finally getting my debt under repayable manageable control, woo.

low: It's dark. I'm tired of driving to work in the dark and falling asleep in the car (hubby drives, don't worry ) and barely being able to keep my eyes open when I get to the office. It's because the time hasn't changed yet and it's still dark at 7:30am, urgh. Can't wait for monday after the time change.

For today:

High ~ I got another page written of my paper for my Approaches to English Studies class. The paper is supposed to be 8 to 10 pages long, and I now have 5 pages written.

Low ~ I did horribly on the quiz in my Baroque and Classical Music class today. For 3 of the 10 questions, I actually wrote "I don't know, sorry" as my answer. :o Thankfully, though, my professor said that she's going to drop our lowest two quiz scores at the end of the semester, so I'm not worried about my grade in her class. It was just a blow to my self-esteem, is all.

For today:

High ~ I feel like I'm really getting a handle on who I am politically, though I am a bit wary of how my mom will react when I tell her I'm not a staunch Democrat (I'm actually leaning more towards the Republican side of things).

Low ~ My heartburn has been really acting up today for some reason. Go away, darn it!

YEEOUCH. Sorry that happened, Hannah.

 

[Windmill]

High: Seeing my friends!

Low: Getting almost no sleep last night huge low.

 

[Blank123]

high: talking to ian and my wunnerful daddy picking up lunch for me when i was feeling too lousy to get something for myself

low: waking up sore due to some major sleep deprivation and just some crap on this site i won't get into. going to work to be yelled at by a patron for something that wasn't my fault really rounded out the day though.

 

[Andres88]

High: Discovering an interesting truth that can (and hopefully will) be applied to my spiritual life.

Low: Was depressed during the day.

 

[Apollo Celestio]

I wish I could take papers page by page in a good format, ahead of time. But NOOO. I have to procrastinate!

 

[huldah153]

High: Completed a 2000 word essay with satisfaction.

Low: My round of golf was accompanied by rain.

I actually feel the same way. Though, with really long papers (meaning more than 3 pages minimum), I can't procrastinate on them, since that would mean that I wouldn't end up writing them at all (since I would end up being overwhelmed and just trying to pretend that the assignment didn't exist at all). But with shorter papers, I do tend to wait until the night before they're due (or the day they're due) and just doing a mediocre job on them then. I wish I were a better student. I really, really do, especially since my roommate is like a super-star student, and she just makes me feel like a complete slacker in comparison.

As for today's high/low:

High ~ I got my laundry done (that's been pretty much the only productive thing I've done today, other than my homework).

Low ~ I was exhausted all day today, which was why I didn't get much done. I swear, if I don't get a good night of sleep soon, I am going to be so frustrated!
