So it's late and my hormones are all over the place and I'm on my last leg of this part time Biomedical Science degree and I'm feeling really worried about this module-Molecular & Structural Biochemistry.
I was doing quite well for the first & second year modules but when the third year stuff comes around, I don't know why but I am not getting the grades I used to get.
That's putting it mildly. It's more of a "I barely passed" type of deal.
It's been going on for a while already but I do admit to being less interested the smaller the scale of the things I need to study. I'm not sure if it's really because I'm no good at science, no good at all these small tiny micro/molecular stuff or just plain no good anymore.
I've never been good with biochem so this is doubly worrying.
So there's the usual mid-sem exam and the final exam. There's also a journal club presentation, a lab book & a lab report assignments. I kinda failed my mid-sem by 5% and I'm pretty sure my finals won't be much better. Unfortunately, I don't think my assignments will be able to pull my grades up much this time because I'm no good at technical/science-y presentations, I'm no good at lab book keeping and I'm definitely no good at this type of lab reports.
Even the guy who used to get worse grades than me passed his mid-sem.
And yet here I am, sitting on my broke ass, worrying about failing my final module and having to repeat it but still not putting in effort to try harder.
Because I'm not sure it'll make a difference.

So The Mother came in to ask me to help her with an LC.
WTF is an LC?
Oh, it's a Letter of Credit.
*groan*

5 min later...
(My thoughts as I try to explain things to her as best as I can.)
1. English, I speak it. But idk wtf they're trying to say in that document.
2. I don't work in banks. I don't understand banking & finance speak.
3.
