I’m finally in my last year of undergraduate school as a biology student.
Things haven’t been especially easy over the last semester. I had exams a month ago and I’m still waiting to see what my scores are going to be. I’m not exactly preoccupied with my GPA as long as I don’t get anything lower than a high B, however it’s still unsettling. The graduate school I plan to attend sent me an acceptance letter in the mail not very long ago, so that has taken some of the pressure off with my ongoing school performance. They just don’t want to see my grades actually slip while in my senior year. As a whole, I’ve been able to sustain my regular grades. However, I haven’t been extremely comfortable recently in both my dorm and in all of my classrooms. Depending on what building you are residing in right now, you would either feel too frosty or too sizzling. It’s the frigid season, however some of the boilers aren’t working in several sites throughout the whole campus. The building that houses my dorm is actually one of the sites with a broken boiler. I’ve been easily freezing in my room while making an attempt to sleep every evening while shivering all the time. I had to purchase an area furnace the other day just to stay warm. I heard from one of the maintenance workers that the administration had ordered an industrial boiler rental while working on the broken boiler in our building. I sincerely hope the rumor is true, because this small and flimsy area furnace certainly isn’t going to cut it in this absurdly nippy weather.
