In a moment of total, shameless bragging here, there is something rather satisfying about walking into a final knowing that you would have to get a 25% or lower to even get a B. That even if you got a 0, you'd still end up with a high B average for the class.

Of course, before I get too cocky, I should remind myself that tomorrow is Myology, and I've got several muscle groups that I still mix up. (The Erector Spinae group is evil!)

Not academically related, but there's been another ongoing issue with school. One of the guys in another program was making several of the girls in massage therapy feel very uncomfortable, to the point where he was practically stalking them while at school. I heard about it pretty early in this quarter, and have since been trying my level best to avoid him. Today, he stopped me in the computer lab and asked me why I hadn't been talking with him. And, considering the recent discussion (http://mari4212.livejournal.com/257513.html) about setting boundaries and confronting people on their skeevy behavior, I told him the truth, that he'd been seriously creeping out people and that one of the other girls had specifically mentioned feeling like he was stalking her. He, of course, was insulted at the idea, and claimed that she'd come up to him just that week to give him her new phone number. I...do not believe him at all, because he still is so skeevy. The other female member of my Anatomy class agrees.

Frankly, no one is sure how he's still in the school, considering that he's also pulled this on a teacher. One would think he'd get kicked out after a while.

*high fives the grade* there have been a few (far too few alas) times when I realized that there was no way I could possible harm my grade in a class, it's always a warm and fuzzy feeling, doublely so when at college.
And yay for being honest, he might have done the default "I'm blameless" reaction, but hopefully you sowed a seed of doubt and self introspection that'll someday make him realize that his behavior is destructive, both to others and himself. One can hope.

Ravenclaw says: Yay for awesome grades. Rest of Me: Good job in telling the truth. You rock! It takes a lot of courage to tell someone you don't know that well the truth especially about something like that. I hope that one day I will be so bold.

Hugs!
