Midterm Round 1 - Part 2

I got my ACMA mark yesterday. The raw score wasn't too bad, around what I expected, but I thought he would scale down the total more so the final percentage wasn't what I was hoping for (I NEED >B+ damn it!!!). Some of the worst mistakes ever. I lost 3 marks in total over two questions because I can't use my friggin' calculator right. And get this, s(x+1) cancels s(x+t). I also got another MC wrong, which wasn't a silly error. I didn't realize I need to bring the conditional probability at time x+k back to x. Dumb--I should've realized he would NEVER give you numbers that you can use directly. And I should've been able to do that other MC that I guessed. My last stupid mistake was that I drew an exponential curve concave down. It was the weirdest thing ever because I sudden popped up ~8 on Saturday morning, my mind completely clear, and I thought: "How the hell can an exponential curve look like this?"

Econ - well it's econ, what can I say. Not the highest mark but I should still be in the A+ range.

Oh man my reading break is ruined. I need to get a root canal on Tuesday. Fuck. Damn. Shit. The story goes all the back to 1999--no I didn't remember that; my dentist had records. My brother and I were fooling around, watching TV on the couch and for some reason, decided to chuck things at each other. I threw the remote at him and he threw my water bottle right at my face. It chipped my #8 incisor and I had to get some filling for it. Last week, I noticed that some of the filling was gone with my tongue so I went to the dentist today. It turned out that the tooth was dead. God I was scared shitless while he went on routinely with the tartar cleaning. *Sigh... life sucks.
