The joys of technical issues /and/ a gym membership
Webassign (the website that my physics homework is on) is being on finicky. It's been having technical issues the last couple of days. While everyone in class is freaking out because the chapter three homework is due tomorrow night, I'm relieved because I finished that sometime last week.
On the other hand, I'm trying to study for the exam that is on Friday by working old problems from chapters 1-3 (you can go to the problems and click "practice another version" so you can practice new problems) and it keeps pooping out on me. Grrrr. I guess it's better than dealing with the stress everyone else is dealing with, but it's still super annoying.I feel like I'm getting a better hang of things this time around, but it's still early. Last year it wasn't really the homework that I struggled with (well, not as much the homework); my issue was mainly testing. That's why I'm really trying to study up for this exam on Friday.
Hopefully it gets resolved soon... I go to work in an hour and a half-ish. Then I'll be going straight to bed since I'm exhausted. I plan to get up early and head to Trey's probably around 5:30am so we can get some cuddles in before starting the day.Trey and I got a membership at 10fitness because it's really close to his house and there's one (not as close as I thought, but still) fairly close to mine. They had a special yesterday were you could start for 10 cents (rather than the normal $59 start-up fee [or $19 if you got a premium membership]). It'll be cheaper for us, since the airbase gym requires a lot more gas to go to it and Trey can't go to the ualr gym with me without paying $5 each time since he's not doing school this semester. So it's good. It's $10 a month (with a $30 annual fee) for a basic membership and $20 a month for a premium. The premium allows you to do more group classes (like kick boxing, zumba, boot camp, etc.), you can bring 1 friend with you for free, you get free tanning... and maybe some other stuff.
I might upgrade later, but I figured I'd start out with the basic since it doesn't cost to upgrade.We've also been taking this protein powder that has 24g of protein in it and it's only 120 calories and 1.5g of fat per rounded scoop. I like it.
Hmm, I also applied at the GNC since I'm only getting 10-13 hours at build-a-bear now. I applied last Thursday I believe, so we'll see. I hope I get it, because I could handle working more since I'm only taking 3 hours, I could use the extra income, and I'd get a 30% discount.
I still need to post pictures from Corpus Christi last week, but I'll do that later in a separate post.
I guess I'll get back to attempting to study now.
