    Today is just one of those blah sort of days.  I spent the majority of the evening asleep, but I have to stay awake and study.  I've got to make an A on my test in Zoology this Monday.  I failled my lab practical (with a 59) and even though I have two more test grades in lab, it's 40% of my grade and I only have a 78 in the lecture.  I don't know what happened to me this semester.  I work my butt off studying and I'm doing terrible.  Normally I get A's and B's, and I'll have one class that I get a C in if it's a hard semester.    Not this semester though.  I have a high B in the class I hate, a low C in Biology of Texas, I'm not sure what I'll end up with in Zoology (I'm not even going to try guessing), and a D in Jurisprudence (I thought I did good on that test).  I'm supposed to graduate in August, so I really don't want to drop anything because then I'd have to go to school in the fall and my mum said she won't pay for it.  My GPA is going to be horrible though.  Right now it's a 2.91.  I intended to bring that up this semester to at least a 3.0 if not higher.  I should have listened to my Zoology professor when he told me that I shouldn't take his class and biology of texas in the same semester... but I didn't have any choice.  My dad can only come down for my graduation if it's in the summer, and mum won't pay for more school, so I have to finish in August. 

    As far as the weirdness in my food goes, I brought it in to my professor and he thinks it's some sort of strange seed.  Either way, he said it shouldn't have been in my food.  But, it's plant based and not a bug, I guess the wormy looking thing that popped out at me was just part of the seed.  Whatever.  I bit into it and it hurt like hell and the weird looking little thing wasn't supposed to be in my food to begin with.  *shakes fist at the company*

    I just sent Prego a nasty complaint about something strange I bit into... I'm bringing it to my zoology class on Monday so someone can help me figure out what the hell it is and if I need to go to a doctor. I was eating some spaghetti and I bit into something exceedingly sharp and painful. I spit it out and thought it was a seed at first, until I realized that it was flat on both ends (cylindrical). I got to looking at it and I realized that it had spikes going all the way around it... so I pulled out my dissecting kit, laid it out on a tissue and pulled it apart. It took a lot more pulling than I thought it would (that outside part was really tough). More pointy stuff unfurled from it, as did a cream/yellowish wormy thing (dead... I think). Anyway, it looks like a fish skelleton but flat. It's dark brown and the smaller part that unfurled from the middle is a reddish brown color. It's pretty small, but it hurt like hell when I bit into it, so I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have been good for my digestive tract. If it gives you any idea how tough the outside part is, i bit into it with my molars and it still held it's shape. What if there were more? I've been eating spaghetti sauce from this particular jar for the past week (I cook enough for one meal, drain the water, and put some sauce on top but I only heat it until it's steamy). I've never had these problems with Classico or Bertolli. I'm never buying cheap pasta sauce again... I wish I had a camera, I'd post a picture. It's pretty weird looking whatever the hell it is.

    Thanks for the support! :) Honestly, I'm having a horrible time with my weight. I'll start the day doing well & then the slightest bit of temptation comes along & I fall for it & fall of track :( I am trying not to beat myself up over it & start each day new. I am telling myself every little bit has to help in some way.
