AL-TN-GA-TN-GA-TN

I just cant make up my mind what state i want to be in. Last week i went to go see mandy in Alabama- then i came home and had a week before we went to Georgia for my church trip. I left early and came back home to see mandy here in Knoxville for the last time that i will actually be able to sit down and talk to her without having her need to rush off to more practice (i.e.- last time i'll see her outside the Drum Corps setting)... Tonight, when Mandy leaves, i will be heading back to Georgia to finish out the last 3 days of the trip in Fayetteville. There has been a mix-up in my grade at MTSU and its been a pain to work it out. My actual grade is unknown, but will be either a B+ or an A... i think it will PROBABLY be an A which will help me out with pharmacy school, but i dont know what i got on the final test and he lost one of my lab test (which he of course wont hold ME accountable for) so the actual range of what my grade could be is too big for me to be able to say its going to be one or the other. My parents are both very disappointed with the possibility of me not getting an A, and my response to that is- "cut me some slack here!"... i mean really... i think i'm doing pretty well and 2nd on the alternate list is nothing to be ashamed of- especially considering the fact that its June the 8th... I KNOW that an A would be the absolute best thing, but a B+ isnt anything to pull your hair out over- even if i know i could have gotten an A with more effort. I actually did get a 98 and 92 on the first two tests, respectively, and i studied much harder for the 3rd test which was over more difficult material. It's really not like i just slacked around and threw caution to the wind- I just wish they could save their frustration with me until i could actually give them a concrete grade instead of being mad that it MIGHT be a B+, you know? That is really bothering me a lot right now- and the thing that gets me the most is, i really dont think i deserve this pressure and disappointment from them because i really think things are working out for me... its just not necessary. Ok i gotta go- be back in afew more days-
