So the Cards pulled out a win last night, forcing game 7 tonight...come on Cards, let's go! I want to see you in the World Series this year! It's funny because I was talking to Eileen last night after the test (at least she sounded like it was hard for her too, so that's somewhat comforting) and she's married to a guy from Texas, so she's turned into an Astros fan...ah well. We can't both be happy. I have to admit a selfish desire to have my team win. Go Cards! Win Game 7! It's my favorite number! Whee! I even wore red, the second day in a row. My mom got extra rally beads. I'd shake 'em if I had 'em.

Yeah, so in other news, orgo test #2 last night. It was awful. I guess what I'll have to do is just do all the problems over again until I figure them out completely. The teacher focused on details, most of which I didn't get. And I totally blanked on some important parts and actually didn't finish the last question. I'm so dead. I don't know how to study for orgo...it seems like too much to memorize, and I thought I had most of the general things down, but then she hits us with details. And some of the stuff she grudgingly told us we should know she didn't even entertain. Sigh. Common names vs IUPAC names...nothing. Why couldn't I remember anything other than carbocations are used in Sn1 and E1 reactions? Guh. I guess I'll have to start going to those workshops, at the lovely times of sunday nights from 9-11 or wednesday nights at same...meh. Isn't it sad when I say that's too late for me?

I was hoping to raise my grade up with this test. Not going to happen, unless everyone else was caught as off guard as I was. Doubt it. Two more tests, a regular one and the final. Dear God be with me. At least I don't have to think about it for a while (though I should) and I can start thinking about NaNoWriMo. I hate disappointing myself. I should go home and read orgo, just because. Oh, right, there's the monthly high school drama alumni birthday rehearsal thing tonight...oy. And when am I going to exercise? I can't wait for Halloween.

Enough of a ramble for you? I really need help in orgo. Ugh. I can't stop thinking about it. Bah. I won't make you read any more about it though...
