I can study!

Something I've always kind of been concerned about is that school would come too easily so I was worried I never really learned how to study. Today I proved to myself I can :)

This last bio test was about biodiversity and the classes of plants and animals, not my strong suit. I used the study guide, wrote down page numbers, found definitions and rocked the test! 24/25 and the one I got wrong was a duh, Sharks don't have an exoskeleton moron type of mistake.

One more test, one more post on the board and one extra credit. As long as I get at least a 19/25 on the last test I've got an A, and if I get below that I still have one more extra credit assignment worth 5 points to make it up.

Very cool.

Yes it's a 100 level class, I should be getting an A with little problems, but it's nice to have it happen too.

Since that section went so well I may start on the last one today, just to get things done and know how much extra credit I'm going to need.

For the one extra credit I know I"m going to do it's a 'pick any topic that relates to biology and write two to three pages on it'. Not sure yet what I'm going to write about, my strong point is basic genetics so maybe something about recessive genes or something. Maybe that moth that changed colors when the English started spouting nasty shit into the air, it evolved to black cuz the white ones got eaten. Natural Selection at it's best!

Or the Red Tide we get here in San Diego (it's red right?) or maybe twins, since I've got that whole nephew thing going. Something to think about.
