I can always deep clean the whole apartment and organize my closet, if all else fails. Since I never seem to find time for either of those things.

Holy mother-of-fuck. My professor finally got the grade up for my trigonometry final. I got an 86.5% - which is a LOT better than I thought I did, like a whole letter grade better, I seriously fucked up and didn't study enough.
I got a 95.6% in the class.
I got an A, and it's at a percentage that I can actually be proud of.
I am so happy right now, you have no idea, I want to scream and throw things (it's a bit screwed up that this is my happy reaction).

If I pulled off an A in my other two classes, this semester was totally not a wash.
And either way, I am so proud of myself for doing so well in trigonometry. I love math, and I'm anticipating doing quite well in calculus 1 next semester so long as I actually study.
SERIOUSLYSOHAPPY.

Also I was listening to the Ukulele Anthem today, before this grade came in, and the line 'just because your grades are bad doesn't mean you're failing' made me feel better. Not that my grades are bad. But they're bad for me, this semester.

I know exactly how you feel and I am super stoked for you!!!

I mentioned this in the Job thread but I landed a job interview for a job that would be really cool. I applied for a similar position before and didn't get this far so yay me! :D

We're supposed to be in 30% off sale this week, but don't have any signage.
So today, I went round to customers with heaps of items, and asked them a trivia question from a product we sell about 90's music, and if they got it right, they got 30% off.
It was so much fun, and a lot of the customers really got into it, like, if I asked someone, and another customer heard me asking, they kept asking if they could have a go, and really got into it.

Neil announced that he will be coming to the South on his next(last) signing tour! Also, Ocean comes out the day before my bday!

ALSO! I ordered a Stop Pretending shirt which is really exciting because I thought I had missed out on them & I was pretty bummed about it.

He has a book coming out June 18th of next year. He is going to do a large signing tour as it will be his last. He said he will come to places he usually doesn't "like the US South". He said he will also do a smaller tour in Europe. Um the post I saw was on his Tumblr.
