Series of Unfortunate Events

Is a book series in which I have been suggested to reading. But that's something completely different from today's post.
Gosh I hate getting crappy marks for midterms. I'm really not used to getting mid 50s and low 60s for tests. This sucks. And for Human Genetics, it's not like I didn't know the answer. When asked the question of what colour Goldilocks hair is, and you answer that she saw 3 bears, went into the bears' house, ate the baby bear's porage, broke baby bear's chair, and slept in baby bear's bed, how many marks do you think you'll get? Seriously, I really need to READ the question before answering them. (DNA Rep midterm on the other hand was just rough. 'Though, I'm still upset I got below the class average of 65%). It's horrible. I've actually spent a good decent amount of time studying for these stuff too.
Lab Methods was horrid too. For the quiz, after a glance at the class' marks (not on purpose though), I realized that my mark was the lousiest. Heck, it's one thing getting a lousy mark, but it's something else when you're getting the worst mark of the class. Also, when the prof comments on how well the second lab was done by the class, and you look at your second lab mark, realizing he meant everyone did well EXCEPT FOR YOU, it kinda makes you feel stupid.
On Thursday, I wrote the Parm Tox midterm. There was 2 booklets (one from each prof), which is 50% each. As I was writing the first booklet, I thought I was doing well, since I finished 24 questions in 45 minutes. However, I found out that the first booklet was out of 50, NOT 25. Needless to say, the midterm felt like the Neverending Story (the one the kid in the story reads, not the one we read). It really couldn't have gone well, considering a good chunk of the question I went "huh? What the heck is this?".
And I'm still currently not able to find a stupid lab job. Why do I get the feeling I'm going to end up working at Tim Horton's AGAIN? Stupid world. Stupid things not going my way. Maybe Bush should invade North Korea, and trigger a nuclear war and end the world. That way trivial things like horrendous grades and unemployment wouldn't get me so down.
