yerp

so today I took what should be my last calculus test for college, and i think I did extremly well. I say it should be because if I fail the final theirs a chance I fail the class. The final exam is next week and it is worth 40% of our final grade. In calc 2 my grade dropped from an 89 to a 75 becuase of the final so absolutly nothing is guaranteed until I see that I passed the class. Right now I have a B i think, my test today shout bring my over all grade up and hopefully I can do good in the final and I'll be done with the calculus'. I was extremly stressed out about this test becuase there always hard lol. But yeah one day closer to summer cant wait to finally get some sleep and not have to stress for a full 3 months lol

stressssssssssssss

I am becoming stresses out as we aproach the end of the semester. I have so many things do within the next week and then a week of finals and. . . then . . . the semester ends and a full 2 weeks of panicing until we all get out final grades. I think i have 4 finals but I have no idea when they are. I have a ton of assignments do but I feel as if I dont have enough time to do them all. I've spent the last 3 days in my room doing either a power point, lesson plan or excel based project. And on top off that I have to study for my chapter 12 test this coming monday. I know everyone else is experiancing the same thing so we all have to make sure the summer is worth is lol

so yeah 0-2 record and concordia on wednesday

just long again :'( i'm actually starting to hit some shots now getting back in the rythem of things but my serve still needs work. Concordia is ranked #2 in the country for divistion 2 tennis so it should be interesting. . . we should be done within 5 minute haha and we're actually playing them twice in one day so it should be about 10 minutes and all of just getting destroyed and aced left and right. both at doubles and singels. Tennis makes me miss wrestling because in wrestling wanted to win or having more heart can actually help, a random/ lucky head lock and allow the under dog to win. Tennis however is more mental, the better shots one hits the more confident the player gets and thus place evern better. And when someone is miss matched one lucky shot wont win the match :'(. . . the season is also very short but hopefully i'll get my rhythm back soon so i can make these matchs more competitive. But im glad im actually being active again, tennis has always been my layed back sport and i havent been playing for a while so it feels back to hit some down the line shots again :)

Starting to become worried about the praxis

I heard it’s really hard. The history one is suppose to be the hardest but math one must be hard. To my knowledge is contains the calculus' and all of the higher leveled math courses. I'm taking it next semester but I don’t know if I’m ready just yet. Luckily I still have a few months before the test to get ready. Some of my classmates are taking it this summer so they should tell me how it goes and hopefully give me positive feedback.

Wrestling 2009-2010 come to an end and make me think about the song "In The End" by Linkin Park

As a wrestler I thought it was the greatest pump up song of all time; now that I heard it as a coach I interpret it differently. As I see great wrestling careers coming to an end the song doesn’t seem so nice. North Plainfield’s most winning wrestler of all time , Mario Herrera, and a long time friend rapped up his wrestling career with a career record of 105-25. The song,"In the End", perfectly describes all the emotions that as a senior one feel. "I tried so hard, and got so far but in the end it doesn’t even matter", last year as a junior he finished 3rd in district 12 and in region 3. This earned him a trip to Atlantic City for the NJ State Wrestling Tournament. This year, his goals were to once again go to States and place in this very prestigious tournament. Going in to District 12 he was 26-0 , which earned him a seconded seed, he finished 3 which meant he could move on to the region 3 tournament however he finished 6th this year. This meant he would not go to States this year. Earlier in the season he asked me if I could help coach because he wasn’t really getting a good work out with his teammate (basically unless he practice with the head coach he wasn’t getting any better). After filling the proper paper work I starting practicing with his during practice and making him work. A few minutes after he lost he goes up to me and said; "I did all that hard work and it ended up not being enough". The song in the end pretty much predicts any athletes’ future unless of course you win the state championship lol. And any wrestler who I ask in they know the song they all respond similarly, "I hate it but I like it", it’s a great song but it brings bad memories of all the blood and sweat one sheds for the sport they love and yet the sport is so cruel [:)] Mario Herrera will most likely be wrestling in college he hasn’t yet decided where he want to go.
