The Fruits of Labor....Hopefully Aren't Rotten.

Soooo. I got my test grade for my Psych Exam, and I made a 90, so that's good...but I haven't gotten back my grades on my Spanish Quiz yet.

Basically, my Spanish class is a week or a week and a half behind because my teacher miscalculated how long it would take to lecture certain topics....or I should say subtopics, because Che Guevara is THE topic of this course. Anyway, so my quiz got pushed from Thursday to Tuesday. Then it got pushed from Tuesday to Thursday. Then it was a snow day that Thursday, so we took it this Tuesday, and it was AWFUL! It was a page, front and back and then the front of another page. It was confusing and incredibly detailed on some parts and only skimmed the stuff that I really knew that I could have written a ton about. I really thought I had studied EVERYTHING for that quiz, but apparently he found it really fun to pick quotes out from the 200 or so pages of reading we've already had, and he wanted us to identify what author wrote it, why it was important, even to fill in the blanks on some quotes. IN SPANISH.

On Thursday, we were supposed to get the quizzes back, but only half the class did, and the rest of us get ours back on Tuesday. From the expressions, sighs, and groans of the class....plus the tons of red ink going down the page with -10, -2, -5, -3, etc per page, I'm thinking that it didn't go so well, so I probably didn't do well either. ugh. I heard someone say that they don't think anyone passed, which I hope isn't true, but at least if I fail, I won't be the only one, right? This is awful.

Ok, well on to better things. I'm currently planning to go to Charleston, SC. I'm SO EXCITED!!! It's the Theta Xi Formal Weekend up there, and it's going to be a blast, I'm sure. My amazing girlfriend Alejandra is going to be a blind formal date for one of Tom's brothers, Nate, and we're all riding up this evening. Tomorrow is the Formal, then we head home on Sunday. I'm going to have to bring my books though, because I have yet another Spanish quiz on Tuesday over The Motorcylce Diaries...or Diarios de Motocicleta. Yay.

Yall have a great weekend...
Love,
Meghan
